MacKenzie Realty Capital Announces Starwood REIT Tender Offer, Adviser Stock Purchases, and Aurora Leasing Update

ORINDA, Calif., Oct. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MacKenzie Realty Capital, Inc.

Starwood redeemed approximately 6,750 shares owned by us and our affiliates in September 2025 at $20.76, greater than a 30% return in less than a year on the most tender price (or a ...
