Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I am a long-term investor. I am looking for 5i's favourite REIT etfs (cost/liquidity, etc.). Please provide one or two GROWTH REITS (lower monthly yield) and one or two HIGH-INCOME REITS (highest monthly yield with growth as a secondary focus). This would be for both a non-registered account and a TFSA in $CAD currency (replication is fine). US/CAN or Global REITS. Whatever the preference.

Please also comment on IDR.TO (Middlefield Indexplus Reit), and whether this fits in some manner to the above categories.

Much appreciated!

Q: Hi,

Thinking of dropping a 5% stake in a REIT`S. I see you hold ZRE in the income portfolio. There are two others that with US exposure(PHR) and CGR is a global reit.

Since I am overweight CND stocks does it make sense to go with either PHR or CGR.

This will be held in a LIRA account and I am aware there could be withholding taxes if I go with PHR or CGR.

Thoughts?

Thank you

Rino

Q: Apartment based REITS seem like good value yet their stock price is declining. Can this be explained by the fact that their future performance will be impacted negatively by expectant higher interest rates?

Q: Your most recent answers to questions about HR.UN and REI.UN indicate that you don't favour them and that they do not need to be owned, suggesting DIR.UN instead, among others. So a few days ago I replaced HR.UN with DIR.UN, and ever since, both
REI and HR have been shooting up while DIR languishes. Today alone they are up over 5% and 4% respectively. Can you explain what's happening here?
