Q: Hi again: Partners REIT (PAR.UN), as a shareholder (very modest amount) I'm getting calls at home regarding apparent opposition to the move to internalize management. In theory "internal" management is better alligned with shareholders' interests but presumably that new management also has to do at least as good a job of running things for that to bear fruit. Can you comment on the choice facing shareholders? Any idea who would lead an internal management team and whether they have a good reputation in the space? The stock has been under pressure since the announcement. Buying opportunity? Thanks!

Q: HI,

Any thoughts on Pure Multi Family REIT RUF.u? A CDN listed US apartment with a 7% plus dividend in USD seems pretty attractive not to mention lower real estate values in the USA?? Missing something?

Q: The dog in the portfolios I manage is RLC--Regal Lifestyle Communities. I bought it on the basis of a nice yield and any slight down could be weathered easily while collecting the divi.--supposed to be a boring but safe play. It is going down far further than I thought--any reasons? Does my original plan still hold?

Q: HI 5i I just noticed True North Apart. TN.UN has jumped considerably in price. I bought it 3 months ago so the jump looks great, but is it real? My account still shows I have the same number of shares.

Q: Any thoughts on Retrocom's (rmm.un) news this afternoon? Seems like a pretty busy deal with the equity offering, the debentures, the private placement to First Capital Realty (fcr) and the bridge loan from TD. For me red flags go up when I read "bridge loan". What do you think?

Q: Hi,

Any comments on INTER RENT REAL ESTATE (IIP.UN:TSX)? The fundamentals of the REIT show that the business is sound. Does the current price present a good entry point for long term holding (at least 2 years or longer)?

Thank you.
