Southfield, MI, Oct. 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sun Communities, Inc. (NYSE: SUI) (the “Company” or “SUI”), a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns and operates, or has an interest in, manufactured housing ("MH") and recreational vehicle ("RV") communities and marinas (collectively, the "properties"), is initiating a divestment of the Company’s approximately 41.8 million shares, equating to an approximately 10.25% holding, in Ingenia Communities Group (“Ingenia”, a company listed in the Australian Securities Exchange, stock code: INA). The sale is anticipated to generate a minimum net proceeds of US$100 million.

In 2018, the Company entered a joint venture partnership with, and concurrently subscribed for a stake in, Ingenia, a leading owner, operator and developer of senior manufactured housing communities and holiday resorts in Australia. In August 2023, the Company agreed terms to extend its joint venture partnership with Ingenia for a further seven years.

Separate from the Sungenia joint venture, the Company has decided to dispose of its direct holdings in Ingenia shares and to use the net proceeds to pay down debt.

“We are pleased we extended our joint venture partnership and look forward to continuing to work with the Ingenia team and participating in the creation and ownership of new manufactured housing communities in Australia through Sungenia,” said Gary A. Shiffman, Chairman, President and CEO.
