Q: I would like to buy some REITs in my RRSP as income-producing assets (keeping them in RRSP so as not to have to track changing ACB resulting from ROC and phantom distributions). Which ones would you recommend?

Q: I think in a previous answer to a question on the Brookfield group of companies you suggested owning up to 15% of this group was OK. I am wondering about the Dream group of companies and your opinion of DRG.UN, DIR.UN, etc., and if you like them, what limit would put on ownership of the group and why?

Q: Thank you for your great service. I'm a young retiree. I need 5% after tax revenue for living expenses. My portfolio consist of 10% cash/equivalent, 2% Prefered (CPD) 15% high dividend stocks, and 65% other well diversified long stock positions of which half also pay dividend in the 2-3% range. Considering that my REITs represent 8% would you consider a good opportunity to add to my REITs since interest rates are going to stay low for the foreseeable future and hence high dividend and distribution stocks should do well in this environment. If so which of the above mentioned would you add to or if you have a better suggestion please do so. As for tax implication I own all my REATs in either TSFA or my RRSP. On a side note I also own Real Estate for approximately 30% of my net in addition to the stock portfolio.

Thanks for your great advise.

Q: Peter; I own both and so watch them closely. It seems that they are basically trading in lock step re volume and price appreciation.Are there any interlocking directors and/or management connections that you know of. Would a combined entity be a possibility? Thanks. Rod

Q: Hi Peter and Staff
My question is about industrial REITS- I have been slow to replace Pure Industrial - most of your recommendations have been Dir.un.
I bought that last week after you had given a slight preference to Summitt over it - yesterday you were asked to recommend one and you picked WPT - what’s up?

Thanks for all you do

Q: I have the above Reits which I would like to consolidate into much smaller number. Appreciate your opinion on your preference of which ones I should keep/switch to, based on expectation of total return over 3-5 years period.
Thanks

Q: I have some money to deploy, and would like to concentrate on dividend paying stocks above. Do you think at the current price points I can buy in or would it be wise to wait for any to come down a bit? I am looking to create some dividend income.
Thanks

Q: Would you be able to rate the above in order of preference based on overall appreciation/performance over next 2-3yrs - also confirm whether you would be a buyer of any or all of them at this point in time and finally what exposure does each have to the Alberta economy.
