Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I've been mulling over your answer to Ray's question yesterday about DIR.UN. You are always quite positive about it, but having owned it for a number of years, I have to ask myself why I should bother to continue holding on to it. Its share price is where it was 5 years ago. I've looked back 10 years at its distribution and there's been not one single hike. What advantage do you see in continuing to own DIR.UN?

Q: Would appreciate your comments on their just-released quarter financials. Dividend back over 5% after this day's drop. Payout ratio of about 43%. I am wanting to own residential, but have been put off by the low dividends from most. This one is now looking good to me, but do you see any red flags here? Are there any others you might suggest (but please, with a reasonable dividend!)
Thanks!
Paul

Q: I am hearing investors piling into commercial real estate. I am looking for office real estate REITs in Canada that are beaten down, will not go down but have a potential price appreciation when environment improves. I am more looking for capital appreciation and not necessarily dividend.

Q: Hello, I sold ERE.UN recently but I want to keep a toe in the residential sector and was looking at KMP.UN, after reading a favorable report from a broker. The current valuation is interesting, among other points. What is your opinion of this REIT? Should I buy after the earnings release (Feb 14)? FYI, I know you like CAR.UN, but I am not interested at this point. Thanks.
