Q: I am trying to get an idea on the revenue growth potential of SMU.un. My info is based on the 2021 annual report.

The company seems to have a good portion of its industrial lease renewals coming soon. In fact, 25% in 2022, 40% in 2023, and 29% in 2024. In a very tight leasing market, where vacancy rate is <1%, such as GTA, GMA, these lease renewals could potentially bring in 20%, 33%, and 29% (corresponding to each of the three years) to the overall revenue without any major added operating expenses. Theoretically, do you foresee the current P/E at about $20 justified or understated on this growth potential?

Thanks,
Roger

Q: True North REIT is paying 8.41% as of today. Is this dividend sustainable and is the share price solid?
Please recommend two other REITs with a relatively generous but safe dividend for steady income? Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i Team

I am reviewing a spreadsheet I developed for tracking Canadian REITs and the following REITS which were listed on the TSVX and I cannot find current information on:

LRT-UN – Lanesborough REIT

NHT-UN – NexPoint Hospitality REIT

PT-UN – Pine Trail REIT

RRR-N – R&R REIT

I am assuming these are all defunct, however where can I confirm that a company is defunct and the corresponding TSXV listing dropped.

Thanks

Q: This is a $160,000 000 IPO for DRR.U (probable ticker), available through RBC for one. They will own - subsequent to acquisition - over 3,000 townhouse units in the US, with occupancy at 96%. The price is not set, nor the expected distribution. It also seems like over 40% will be held by some of the forming partners (some of the properties are being bought from them).
I would appreciate your opinion on this one, particularly with regards to any red flags you can spot!
Thanks! Paul K

Q: I am looking to increase my allocation to the Materials and Real Estate sectors. My current exposure is only through various index ETFs. Can you provide 3 companies for each sector that trade on the TSX to have a balanced exposure?
