Veteran property developer Harry Triguboff is in confirmed talks with a Chinese-based buyer for the sale of his Meriton property empire, Bloomberg has reported.

Meriton, the nation’s largest home builder, has previously been in cursory discussions with Asian-based property developers.

Triguboff told Bloomberg he met with the suitor last week. 

“I showed them my valuation, they’re looking at their valuation; that’s what we’re doing now.”

Triguboff, who has previously valued the business at over $6 billion, said he would only offload Meriton in its entirety. The price has since been revealed as $10 billion.

“It’s of great interest for me to sell,” Triguboff told Bloomberg.
