The Trump administration announced Tuesday that it is considering selling off hundreds of “non-core” federal properties, according to the General Services Administration.

The 443 buildings, which are currently owned and maintained by GSA, span almost 80 million rentable square feet, the agency says.
The move is part of a broader effort by GSA’s Public Buildings Service to offload properties and leases the Trump administration has deemed no longer essential to government operations. The agency owns more than 440 buildings nationwide, covering nearly 80 million square feet.
But after the list was initially published, many buildings, including all in D.C. and most in Maryland and Virginia, were removed from the list Tuesday night without explanation, leaving only 320 properties. By Wednesday morning, the entire list was removed and a “coming soon” label added.
Hundreds of the 443 listed properties will likely still be sold, but the process will be better explained when the list is republished, the General Services Administration says.
The General Services Administration (GSA) removed a list of 443 properties it was potentially looking to sell on Wednesday just a day after posting the listings. A page featuring a previously lengthy “non-core” property list now says a list will be “coming soon.
Lawmakers on the Hill, mostly Democrats, lashed at the GSA over its handling of lease terminations and that infamous disposal list.
The GSA can dispose of a property by transferring it to another federal agency, turning it into space for homeless assistance programs, negotiating a sale to a state or local government, or selling it at full market value.
