Oak Street reportedly makes $2 billion bid for Kohl’s real estate

Source: CNBC — 

Private equity firm Oak Street Real Estate Capital LLC has made an offer to acquire as much as $2 billion of property from Kohl’s Corp and have the U.S. retailer lease back its stores, according to people familiar with the matter.

Oak Street’s interest offers Kohl’s another chance to cut a deal after negotiations to sell itself to Franchise Group Inc, owner of the Vitamin Shoppe, for almost $8 billion fell through in July over the department store operator’s deteriorating business prospects.
