Q: Hello 5i Team

Finally Melcor Developments (MRD) has offered to take Melcor REIT (MR-UN) private at $4.95 with a closing date of late Q4 2024.

I note there is a one month "go shop" for MR-UN to possibly find a better deal, however with MRD owing ~55 %; MRD being the manager of the REITs properties; and the year long Strategic Review Process - is it even a possibility that MR-UN could find another buyer?

With MR-UN trading ~$4.80 should I sell my holdings and move onto another REIT? With only a 3 % difference I think there are other opportunities in the REIT space to replace MR-UN.

What would be 5i top names in the REIT space to replace MR-UN (can be a different sub-sector from MR-UN's operations).

Thanks

Q: Good morning,

can you please share your thoughts on BTB.un and NXR.un, their recent financials including any going forward comments you may have, payout ratio and future growth based on the interest rates moving downward.

I'm in love with the monthly dividends and I have been dripping both stock, my position in both is starting to be central in my portfolio.

Thank you

Q: Have held Sienna for about 4 years, and despite some ups and downs, currently have some decent capital gains on top of the nice dividend. I have been considering selling it, but now notice there is a new issue. Could you comment on the purpose of the new issue and if you consider Sienna a hold or sell. This is in an RSP, so no tax implications.
Thank-you

Q: I have noticed that the real estate ETFs have been languishing over the last 10 years. What is your view of the real estate ETFs over the next 5 years? Under what conditions will these ETFs do well? What type of real estate ETFs do you expect to do well (domestic vs international, commercial vs residentical, etc.)?

Please recommend a North American and an international ETF which you feel could do well over the next 5 years. What percent of a portfolio would you recommend include real estate for diversification purposes?

Thank you for this excellent service.
