Q: I have never owned a REIT but started looking at a couple. In doing so I realized that I really don’t know what to evaluate in a REIT (beyond type of asset - land, commercial, residential, specialty) and things I normally see as red flags may not be here. Can you tell me a few of the most important fundamentals to look at when comparing REITS (negatives to watch out for specifically, and positive indicators). For example my initial concerns were steady increases on common shares outstanding (seems acceptable and typical of all REITS) and what debt levels are acceptable. If you could tag your favourite REITS today I would appreciate. I have only looked at LAND and IIPR so far.

Thanks

Q: I am looking at investing some funds into real estate and do not find any questions re net.un. Was wondering if you could provide a comparison on the three listed as to which may be preferable for a conservative income focused investor. Thanks.

Q: Thank you for answering my question on NAV.
The unanswered part of the question is "of the 3 is DIR.un still your favourite. Lastly please rank by risk."

Q: I am wondering about the NAV for DIR.un as the company reported an updated value of $16.64 last week with its Q2. How often does a REIT update its own numbers for this as a rule? I note it trades at a 25% discount to this number now whereas a year ago it traded at a premium to NAV.

What comparable NAV numbers would SMU.un and GRT.un have and of the 3 is DIR.un still your favourite. Lastly please rank by risk.

Q: MPW pays a dividend of some 7%. I do hold a small position and am wondering if I should maintain or exit. I like the yield but in the past I have not had capital appreciation success with "high yield" stocks and usually ended with a net loss. I don't see any reason to exit except the high yield is telling me the market knows something I do not. Am I "over-reacting" ? Thanks John
