Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I'm thinking of starting to accumulate Northview. Research shows a pretty intertwined relationship between the company and it's largest shareholder, Mr. Drimmer, who also owns Starlight Properties.

Given his 15% ownership in NVU.UN his ability to nominate two trustees to the board, and the business relationship between his company and NVU.UN, I'm hesitant to jump in. What do you think? If not this mult-family REIT, would you suggest another one?

Q: Hi 5i

I am looking for investments that distribute primarily through Return of Capital, such that the cost base can be ground down to a point where it may make a lot of sense to donate the shares to charity, shelter the entire gain while having extracted most of my cost base. I imagine that most of these things will be in the REIT space, but I am open to anything.

Thanks,

David

Q: Hello,

In the real estate sector, I have a position of 7% in D.UN, and 2.5% in CUF.UN. Both positions are respectively held in my TFSA and RRSP. I would book a 15% profit over the past year if I were to sell. How important is it to be exposed directly to real estate?

What's your thought on selling to buy more growth oriented stocks since I am a young investor and don't really need the income. What would be your company suggestions? I am currently underweight in consumer defensive (3% ATD.B), industrials (3% SNC, 3% WJA) or/and could also add another position in technology (2%BB, 2%PHO, 5% OTEX, 6% KXS).

Thank you,
