Q: GRT.UN has been range bound between $75 to $80 for about 8 months. Do you see any catalyst that would break this trap? If I were to sell GRT.UN, do you have any REIT you can recommend with similar yield but more growth opportunity? Thanks.

Q: Hello!
I am underwater on my First Capital Realty shares (currently yielding 2.62%) and considering replacing them with Choice Properties REIT units (currently yielding 5.43%). Doing so would double my income from this position. My thinking is that CHP's income profile is more stable than FCR's. What are your thoughts on this trade? More importantly, would you make the switch now or wait for the economy to open up more? Once vaccinations are rolled out and the economy more or less returns to normal, does FCR's share price have more upside than CHP's? FCR's share price has rallied more in recent months.
Thank You!

Q: In my unregistered account (focus on low-debt, low volatility, dividend payers, and about 1/3 of total portfolio) my only real estate exposure is CRT.UN (5% of account, 1.8% of total portfolio). I have similar level of investment in CTC.
Would it make sense to replace CRT.UN with BAM.A, realizing that BAM would have much more than real estate (I have quite a bit of other renewable power elsewhere) and I'd be giving up around 3% dividends in the move.
Or a different REIT?
Time horizon 5 - 7 years.
Thanks for all your advice & guidance.

Q: Do you know the timeline for when this deal will close? I plan to take the cash offer but was wondering if there will be another quarterly dividend payment?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Q: I tend to like boring predictable companies. As far as U.S. self storage companies go, how would you rate NSA on the NYSE. Are there others you would prefer.
Q: Do you like SPG ? Is it a good time to buy now? Thank you.
Q: In a recent answer to Ed you recommended this company as one of the top Canadian REITS that hold US properties ("Tricon (TCN) would be the top of the list." ). However, when I took a look, it is today $12.86, and 5 years ago was 12.00 so not much capital appreciation. The distribution is only 2.2%. It has been the same ($.07) for 5 years, and was one cent less ($.06) for about 5 years before that. In light of what seems to me very lacklustre performance, what makes you put this at the top of your list? Thanks!
Q: With dividends paid to date, I will end up about even if I sell today. Should I hold for BAM's final offer to be accepted, or head for the exit now?
Q: Hello, what’s with the price action of BPY.un at the open? I thought the price would have gone up to about 22.80, given the final offer of BAM. Thanks.
Q: Insiders are now buying at Artis prior to the proposed Sandpiper takeover and new (risky?) business plan. I own a sizeable position that is underwater, but the dividends have put me ahead overall. Should I hold or look for an exit?
Q: In what circumstances should an investor hold a REIT ETF? Does it make sense to hold an income stream such as this in an RRSP that you are looking to grow long term?

Q: I have found that my Canadian listed REITS that held US real estate have done rather well. and have been absorbed by larger US entities. May I please have your top 3 or 4 REITS that are listed in Canada and that hold US properties?

John
