Q: I have already lost Milestone to a takeover and now it appears that I will lose Pure Multi-Family. Do you have any suggestions on how to play apartment rentals in the US without buying an American security. Thank you as always. Nigel.

Q: Just to round out my portfolio a little I hold 2 REITs - CAR.UN and GRT.UN. It seems the whole REIT sector has been uneventful this year. With these two I'm above water but other than collecting the monthly payouts, there have been no growth.

Do you think the rate cut in the U.S. should/will give this sector a boost? I'm thinking about flipping these two REITs for something that represents a better balance between yield and growth (suggestion if any). Your recommendations/opinions are much welcomed. Thanks.

Q: I currently have no investments in the REIT sector and have about 10% cash. Would you say this would be a good time to step into WPT Industrial or Canadian Apt Properties for income and some growth? Please provide your insight on a comparison. On the US side how do you view XLRE? I am retired and looking for some stability and wouldn't mind allocating to 2 properties. Thanks.

Q: I just bought more Tricon today after RBC downgraded the share price target from $14 to $13. Am I missing something here? I have looked at this company very meticulously - management has hit its numbers consistently over the years and the recent merger looks great in terms of scale - why the consistent market punishment?

Q: Keep in mind that I am now a retired (unabashed) income investor. My high risk growth days are past,(too much stress) Slow steady reliable 4% + div stocks ROCK MY WORLD NOW. So what is up (in your view) with the former Brookfield named (now Bridgemarg Real estate services)Is the recent poor performance a reflection of the name change and not having the star high profile parent name in it or a sagging sector. Is there something to fear about the div here. All my stocks average 3% holdings. Is this suitable or should I reduce? I have held it since 2012. Thanks for your time.
