Sell-offs of U.S. real estate: the effect of domestic versus foreign buyers on shareholder wealth
Article Abstract:
The effect of the nationality of the purchaser of US real estate on the wealth of the selling firm's stockholders is analyzed. Results show that sell-offs of real estate assets increase stockholders' wealth and that no significant disparity exists when the purchase was by US citizens or not. This conflict with previously found disparities for mergers may be due to the stronger public reaction to merger announcements than for sell-off announcements. In addition, no discrimination against US buyers was found in the bidding for real estate.
