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

Q: Good Afternoon,
I am a very diversified investor. having stock in almost every sector and not over invested in each sector. In the sector of real estate I am only 5% invested and I am looking to add one stock out the 5 that I have mentioned. I understand that BRE is more of a service company in real estate but it is still class in the real estate sector. Can you recommend me which one of the 5 should I invest in?
Thank You.

Paul

Q: I know that you like Chartwell, but I am not certain why your strong endorsement.. Looking at the share price performance the shares currently sell at the same price as 3 years ago; so other than the dividend there has been no growth over the past 3 years. Not looking for a lot but some small token growth would be nice to instill some confidence in the company's management team. I own the shares, have done so for some time, but am now thinking that there are better income opportunities out there. Can you provide me with some rationale for not parting with my shares in Chartwell?

Q: Hi 5I,
I have held Boardwalk for a long time (perhaps to long) and watched the stock pickup momentum in the summer of 2018 only to sell off and not recover.
Is this worth holding? Or move on to another income name that you could recommend. My thesis to own Boardwalk was that is was best of breed and carried a conservative payout with a fair REIT growth profile until the energy slide occur. I thought perhaps Boardwalk stock would start to return to a cover (or at least return some of the slide), but the energy climate seems to continue to impact the investor sentiment.

The recommendation does not have to be a REIT, and I have been looking at topping up CSH & NWC (not sure if this is too small cap to compare) to a 5i weighting %.

If selling BEI is the best option should I wait past May 15-19 earning release? Might get a bit more of clarity or hope of improvement (could be worse as well).

Q: Hi team,

What do you think of Colliers recent investment in Harrison Street? When I see the words 'transformational" in a headline, it gets my attention. ;)
What will it add to the top and bottom line...if anything?
It has dropped around 10% in the last few months and is about 25% off its highs.
Time to step in for a 1/3 position?

Cheers,
Steve

Q: I'm about to add a bit of money to my portfolio and have been starting to look at REI.UN, NWH.UN, HR.UN, TNT.UN. I currently have only BTB.UN as a REIT in my portfolio. I'm looking to supplement my monthly income. Any advice as I start the research process into these companies is much appreciated.

Q: Asked last year about this one alongside CBL. I did not buy either but just read an interesting article from Rida Morwa on seeking alpha and would love another analysis of WPG for a contrarian iinvestment. Do you beleive they can cover the 23% dividend and if they cut it do you think the price would flop or rise. I know its a flier but just fishing.
Thanks Gary

Q: I would like to invest in a REIT geared toward residential apartment rentals and have narrowed it down to CAR.UN and MRG.UN. With a smaller market cap and lower payout ratio, would you agree MRG.UN has a larger runway for growth?
Thanks,
