Q: Hi Peter, Ryan & Team,
Happy Easter! Recently, the Motley Fool had quite a critical view of Allied.
https://www.fool.ca/2019/04/19/avoid-this-reit-till-canadas-recession-hits/
Do you concur with their view?
It's in my wife's TFSA (I realize that this isn't the right pace for a REIT, but it has done very well for her. Currently, it's 1.95% of our combined portfolio. Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Q: 1) How do you feel about picking up a few shares of CAR.UN, especially if you can get the shares below the financing price of $49.

2) Do you have any thoughts regarding CAR.UN's trading over the last handful of days, post equity offering (sharp increases, followed by sharper decreases, relatively speaking for a reit)?

3) Historically speaking, despite decent distribution increases, as a result of the share price increase, is this generally speaking the lowest CAR.UN's yield has been?

Thanks.

John

Q: Further to the question about Riocan on April 12.

An article in the Globe and Mail on April 8 listed Riocan as one of the "thirteen TSX stocks whose dividends appear unsustainable".

An article in the Globe on April 12 had Riocan in a list with the headline "Seeking top-performing REITs that are still well valued".

How sustainable is the distribution? How will Riocan compare to some other REITs (such as CAR or CSH) for total return over the very long-term?

Q: I'm planning to add a REIT for a five year hold (for the combined growth and yield), which one of GRT.UN or CAR.UN would you recommend? Or, if there are others better than these two that I should consider? Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,
First Capital is a small trust with market cap of 125M (based on WSJ info). Yesterday, it announces 266 M purchase/co-ownership with First Capital Realty.
Jan 9, 2019 Crombie Reit anounced a sale of 104M ish to the group.
Questions:
Is FCD.UN a good investment today for a 10 years horizon?
Do you think that this can be a step to turn First Capital Realty to a REIT? or a planned merger of all First Capital assets into 1?

My annual membership will end soon, a day before my BD so I always remember to give myself a gift of membership in support of the last independent advisor for DYI.

Q: Hi,

I'm looking for a long term hold in US realty. I'm a little concerned that ADC is in retail, which concerns me, but it's growth just going despite your concerns, "and its cash flow per share is only about the level of 10 years ago. "
Of these 3, which do you think is best for a long term, relatively safe hold?

Q: I come across two high yield U.S. REITs - NLY and AGNC that provide yields over 11%. Do you know anything about them? How does these two compare? If you have to pick one which would be your choice? Are there any special tax consideration in investing in U.S. REITs? Thanks.
