Q: Concerning Tricon (TCN). You commented on an earlier question that the housing market in the US was strengthening and that Canadian lumber companies were showing increases from this. I also noticed that a large home builder in the US, Pulte Homes, has shown recent strength as well. My question is why Tricon stock does not seem to be participating in this rebound. Are their projects still too far off or perhaps the rental market not improving. Really appreciate your insights.

Q: HLP as a share owner - am I correct that there is no option but to take cash; it seems we are not offered shares in the US REIt; and, if so, why not just sell now - I self-invest so have no advisor to handle a tender.

Q: Re: HLP.UN I have read question/answer by Allan on Aug 18.
Your guidance was - "you need to tender your shares to the deal".
I'm a "new" investor. I own some of this stock. I don't understand what I need to do in this situation. Would you kindly provide further guidance.

Q: Re: HLP.UN Healthlease Properties
I currently own HLP.UN. When the takeover is completed, what happens to my exiting shares? Are they somehow rolled over into the new company or am I paid out at the takeover price?
Thank you.

Q: Between me and my wife, we have about 14% of the market value of our portfolios in 5 REITs: CUF, HR, AAR, TPH (I know, not strictly a REIT, but similar) and HCP-NYSE. Based on our cost the collective dividend yield is about 7.6% and we're up about 9% overall. Should we consider reducing our exposure to this sector (in light of possible future interest rate increases)? If so, which would you suggest we sell? Thanks.

Q: I currently hold the 5.75% convertible debentures from Healthlease Properties and I am confused as to how today’s takeover announcement affects the debentures. My understanding is that holders can convert the debentures into shares at $14.00 (which is almost in-line with the takeover price) or they may be purchased back by Health Care at 101%. Both options offer only a very tiny premium yet the debentures are trading higher on the news (right now at $105). I am inclined to sell now for the current premium unless there is something I don’t understand. Does selling now to take advantage of the uptick on this news make sense?
