Krasnoff, president and CEO of LNR, says in a statement. “During the past three months, we continued to take advantage of the extremely strong demand for our income-producing assets, bringing in almost $300 million of cash proceeds from sales and recognizing over $60 million in gains. A number of these sales were planned for later in the year, but with such unprecedented demand, we were able to close them in the current quarter and realize the value we added earlier.”
