The Wall Street Journal: Vornado Realty Trust seeking to break partnership deals with Trump Organization

This post was originally published on this site

One of the nation’s biggest real-estate investors, which is run by a longtime friend of Donald Trump, is exploring ways to end a lucrative partnership with the former president’s real-estate company, people familiar with the matter said.

The partnership includes two of the Trump Organization’s most valuable assets. Losing them would shrink the Trump Organization’s business, just as it has struggled with the decline in travel and leisure spending due to the coronavirus pandemic. A sale could benefit Trump’s businesses, which have more than $400 million in debt due in the next few years.
