For anyone interested I have a development site I was proposing to Walgreen's but at this time their expansion plans in many states are on hold.I talked to Walgreens and they are expecting a decision with the FTC commission end of January on the buyout of Rite Aid's.Walgreen's doesn't want to add new locations until they know Rite Aid will go through or not as they will likely shut down some Rite Aid's or Walgreens that are older or in sub-optimal locations too close by.Recently in the last few weeks it came out in a news story that Walgreens if Rite Aid purchase is approved will spin off about 800+ Rite Aid's and sell those to Fred's.Fred's is a pharmacy concept that goes in weak suburban to rural towns with low demo's.

Nevertheless, a good source of info for these news outlets are #Twitter (can be overwhelming though), #VRMB (a private group of vacation rental managers run by Matt Landau (smart cookie), #VRMA, and a LinkedIn Group called Vacation Rental Managers.  

Sellers of debt usually only show the good news though.
