Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have small positions in sis and csh.un and I am looking to add comparable positions in real estate that has a focus outside of Canada. Would you recommend either Nwh.un or hlp.u with regards safety of dividend with moderate capital appreciation and your reasoning? Thanx.

Q: We hold MST.UN in a RRIF and in a non-registered account, and have been advised that the the terms of the proposed takeover may be satisfied by way of dividend in addition to capital gain, thereby affecting the income tax treatment of the disposition. If this is correct would you recommend a sale now, or a hold, and is this the same for the RRIF and the non-registered account?

Q: Hi Peter, I have the above real estate plays (~2.5% each) in my RRSP along with a good mix of other 5i non-real estate income and growth picks (~62.5%) plus ~30% cash at present. Is this a reasonable mix (TCN, HOT, SRT) ? Thank you.

Q: To what extent are these two - or others like them - influenced by higher rates. My understanding was that this had become a very competitive sector yet both have appreciated significantly in recent months. What are their prospects?

Q: BPY-UN has offered $30.10 per unit of BOX-UN on January 23.
BOX-UN closed at $31.25 on January 24.
Please confirm or explain following:
Is the BPY-UN offer all cash
Is a tax free rollover contemplated
When will the purchase close

Would you sell the BOX-UN into the market and buy an equivalent amount of BPY-UN? I am comfortable holding BPY-UN.

Would you recommend another Canadian "office" REIT to replace BOX-UN. I specifically purchased BOX-UN to represent high quality Canadian office REIT.

Thanks for the great service.
