Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 25, 2019, subsidiaries of NexPoint Residential Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with an unaffiliated third party (“Buyer”) to sell The Pointe at the Foothills, Belmont at Duck Creek, Abbington Heights, The Ashlar, Heatherstone and Edgewater at Sandy Springs to Buyer for approximately $289.9 million, subject to prorations and other adjustments as described in the Agreement. Buyer made an earnest money deposit of $9.0 million, which is nonrefundable unless the Agreement is terminated by Buyer under a provision in the Agreement that expressly entitles Buyer to a return of the earnest money deposit.
The sale of the properties is subject to customary closing conditions set forth in the Agreement. The Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties and covenants of the parties. The sale of Abbington Heights is expected to close on September 3, 2019, while the sale of the remaining properties is expected to close on August 30, 2019. There can be no assurance that the closing conditions will be satisfied or that the sale will be consummated.
The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, a copy of which will be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form10-Q for the quarter ending June 30, 2019.
