Q: Good morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,

In your answer to Paul, you said that CAPREIT was 100% in rental apartments, which I don't believe to be the case. For example, two side-by-side buildings in Oakville, on White Oaks Blvd., and on Marlborough Court are serviced by a medium size strip mall that CAPREIT owns and is connected to the two apartment buildings. Tenants include Rabba, Burger King, and other fast-food and service/merchandise stores. Having said that, thanks for continually recommending CAR.UN. It has been a stellar performer for us. (We live nearby and are able to monitor our investment, and we note that CAPREIT is continually improving their properties.)

Q: Hi,
Morguard has bought a substantial position in PLZ and since the news release the stock keep moving up. I have sold 20% of my position because I do not believe that a takeover is in the cards but I am starting to doubt. Do you know who was the seller(s)? Michael Zakuta, the best REIT CEO in my opinion ( I worked 20 years in real estate), is the major shareholder and is still buying regularly. Has Morguard ever done a takeover? or taking a company private with management?
Thank you in advance

Q: Gentlemen

My broker has suggested both of the above for above average return and a high degree of safety. They do not trade on the TSX but I wasjust wondering if you had any experience or knowledge on the companies as an alternative investment option for a retired investor.

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i, I do not have any real estate exposure in my portfolio or own any real estate assets. My portfolio includes a range of stocks such as SHOP, MELI, PYPL, SQ as well as BNS, DIS and BIP:UN, CNR as some examples.
It seems like there could be a lot of future growth in Atlantic Canada and I am wondering about KMP.UN. I have a small portfolio so would appreciate any suggestions you have for some real estate exposure with growth. Thank you!

Q: Retired, conservative dividend investor. I hold the above securities as well as annuities, Fisgard Capital, CPP, OAS (very soon) and a company pension.

When I screen CSH by the usual metrics (P/E, P/BV, P/CF, P/S, ROE) and look at the technicals, it does not give me a lot of confidence to continue to hold. It seems stuck in the $14 to 15 (16) range. I understand the intention is for CSH to provide stability to the portfolio, especially if/when the market decides to head south.

#1 = Please build me a case to continue to hold or add to CSH.

#2 = If the retirement industry outlook looks good, but a different company (like Sienna) looks better, should a switch be the better option.

Thanks for your help...much appreciated...Steve
