Q: Hi 5i,
BTB REIT (BTB.UN) just announced a $30M unit financing at $4.55 (about $0.20 below recent trading prices) for the purpose of redeeming all of their series D debentures. Can you explain the strategy behind this move (replacing a debenture interest obligation with a unit distribution obligation) and, in your opinion, does it make sense for BTB? Thanks.

Q: I would appreciate your opinion on which sector CSH.un is in.
The Globe and Mail has it listed in the healthcare sector. That makes some sense given the demographic of its clientele. However, other sources list it in the REIT sector. It makes some sense that it would be sensitive to the housing sector (i.e. if house prices fall, fewer seniors will be able to sell their houses to move into retirement homes.)
With respect to my attempt to be diversified across the 11 sectors, which sector would you place CSH.un in?
Thanks so much!

Q: Shareholders appear to have reacted negatively to the recently announced acquisition. Is this reaction justified, given that management has said the acquisition will be immediately accretive to reit's funds from operations and AFFO?

Q: Could you comment on Ivanhoe Cambridge reducing stake in Cuf.un ?
Q: Sorry - I was looking for an CDN or USA ETF not individual stock
: Is there a USA or CDN ETF that your team would recommend similar to CSH.UN, SIA or SIS. Is there any news why SIS is selling off with high volume.
5i Research Answer:
In the US, three to look at are SNH, HCN and LTC
Ventas VTR is also interesting, owning seniors' housing and medical office buildings.
There is no news on SIS, but energy/metals have been very strong and there might be some rotation occurring this week.

Q: I want to increase my holdings in real estate as a contrarian play, and also increase my received dividends.
I am looking at SOT.UN and it has an expected dividend of over 9% and earnings that are more than double that. It made a deal with Fortis recently, and Fortis received shares as part of the deal. I figure Fortis is pretty astute. I would be interested in your opinion.
Is there anything to read into the fact that no questions have been asked about this company on your website. I like to buy things whilst they are still "under the radar"?

Q: Dream Office REIT is underperforming the REIT index especially recently. It has been trying to improve the balance sheet but is again down today after publicity over a possible sale of part of Scotia Tower. It seems to be very unloved.I have been waiting for a better price to sell with some frustration. Is there hope for better sentiment and price? Thanks for your opinion
Q: I know this one is not your favorite in the category, but it is well off its high, and starting to look interesting. I don't see any news to support the drop over the last few days - are you aware of anything?Would you consider initiating a position in EXE at this time, to be held primarily for income (I have held Sienna for several years)?
Thank-you
Thank-you
Q: The stock has been dropping last a few days. Do you have an idear what happends on the stock?
thanks.
thanks.
Q: I hold this REIT and was most please at the jump when the sale was announced. The sale price is 7.25. The price went up to 7.03 and I assumed that since the deal probably has little risk and it closes relatively quickly, I decided to wait since I saw NO real downside risk. The price then dropped. Is there a risk that I am not seeing?
Thanks
Thanks
Q: With the upcoming new classification of Real Estate being formed out of the Financials under the GICS is there a best way to play this? A single REIT or just pick up an ETF? I've read numbers as high as 100 billion could pour into REITs as a result - what kind of spike in valuations will this cause or is some of this already priced in?
Q: I have notice there is 2 to 3 times volume last week. Is there any news or is it because of interest rate. Will there be any impact if interest rate goes up. Do you think it is time to sell and move to SIA. I am holding both - Csh.un - 5% and Sia - 1%
Thanks a lot
Thanks a lot
Q: Hello to all of you at 5i,
It would seem that the US Fed will very likely raise its overnight rate this summer and there is a strong consensus among pundits that REITs experience quick declines when interest rates rise. How do you feel about Chartwell's vulnerability to that scenario? Is it as interest-rate sensitive as the other, more common types of REITs?

Q: Hi guys
please give me your opinion of Summit Industrial REIT. It looks to have a high dividend rate which appears sustainable to me, but will appreciate your view.
