# Howard Hughes Sees About $2 Billion in Real Estate Proceeds by End of 2027 By John Kim Canonical URL: https://www.tokenpost.com/news/business/51680 Published: 2026-11-08T16:16:09.000Z Updated: 2026-11-08T16:16:09.000Z Section: Business > Bill Ackman said the company expects significant progress on its monetization plan by then but likely will not have completed it.

The company’s plan covers both operating properties and residential land, with different transaction structures for each.
