    Just heard in the news that BlackBerry sold its headquarters in Texas. However, they will continue to be a tenant of the facility.

    They've been doing this for months - selling their real estate holdings and leasing back what they need. There was an article about it on CrackBerry awhile back (not specifically for Texas, just in general selling down of assets). It makes good business sense (in fact, that's what my company does - we have no interest in being property-owners, that's not our business).

    They did this in waterloo also, sold it to the university then leased some back. It's a way to reduce cost quickly and get cash flow
