No idea what the actual owner will do once the project delivers.....I don't know that we have too much of a track record on F&F to suggest whether they are likely to be a long-term holder or a build and seller. If Fifield were the owner, or had a substantial ownership stake, than yes, I'd be inclined to think that if the market were right, they would look to sell. That's one major key in the end - market conditions upon delivery. A lot can change in 2-3 years. Even if it's a preferred build and sell player, when the market works against you, often if you can, you hold....
