Housebuilder Taylor Wimpey is selling its North American business for $955 million, Financial Times reports. The buyer of the group’s U.S. and Canadian house building operations is TMM Holdings, the property investor backed by TPG Capital and Oaktree.
TMM’s all-cash offer is awaiting shareholder approval. Taylor Wimpey will use the sale proceeds to pay down some of its $1.05 billion of debt. JP Morgan Chase served as adviser on the sale process.
