Q: Good morning,

I am looking for some stock suggestions in the US on how best to play the rental market particularly in some of the more expensive/popular real estate markets in the US ie San Francisco. My thesis the strong growth in real estate prices will result in the millenials choosing to rent in the more popular urban centres either by choice or necessity.
Can you comment on this thesis as an investment opportunity and provide your best equity ideas at this tine in US and Canada.

Thanks for the excellent service!

Q: Hello,
Why does the company annonce a buyback at a premium to spot price ? Is that standard practice ? How do they come up with a purchase price of 36$ ? Does every share buyback have to be annonced ? Thank you for your general comments on this topic. I am a haapy shareholder but just curious.

Q: Hi Folks
I have owned TCN for some time and the share price is still above my purchase price but the value keeps steadily eroding. RBC reports on it regularly including the Case-Schiller price index in each of the areas where it holds rental homes. These show appreciation of 13.4%, 4.3% and 5.7% in 2013, 2014 and 2015. Most recent results show a small decrease of -0.1%, month-over-month. They also hold homes in areas that are not covered by Case-Schiller including Houston which is affected by the decline in oil prices. About 12% of the rental homes are in Houston according to RBC I remember some reference to this on BNN but I haven't been able to find it. Do you think this may be behind the decline in the stock price and do you have any thoughts on the significance of this factor? Thanks.

Q: Good time to sell at market prices in the $35 range given all the shares tendered won't necessarily be purchased at $36? Take money off the table as in the short run, this name may not do very much. Might be an opportunity to buy back lower into the name down the road. Or the price may be supported by the earnings growth of the additional leverage the company is taking buying back its under valued shares. Wondering your thoughts.

Q: Was thinking REITS might be a good place to look for income right about now. I own Tricon and TGF.UN for about 2.5% of my PF and for domestic REITs HR.UN and SRU.UN for 2% of my PF. Are there any REITS that seem particularly attractive to you right now?

TIA
