Q: Hi, I am retired and own 5 reits amongst others. MRT.UN represents 2.48% of total portfolio.I can't understand the lack of coverage by investment professionals regarding MRT.UN. I think this reit should be regarded as a good investment for retirees looking for income and a bit of growth.
Your thoughts, please

Q: My question is on TPH Temple Hotel Inc, what do you think of their recent announced purchase and it as an income investment. I have approx.4% in my rrsp account tied up in it and in the divvy reinvestment program. What do you think of the 9.5% dividend, is it sustainable? I have gathered quite a few shares but with the drop in stock price I find it is actually in the red for how long I have held it, 6 months. Thanks for your assistance! Ed

Q: Re: BPO
I have about 600 shares of BPO and the current price is just below $ 21; I would have made a 20% profit which is great
There is now a tender for the BPO to be converted to another BAM unit, (could be the BPY)
The offer expires on March 19
I wonder if the book value of BPO is higher than the $ 21
and I could hang on for a few more weeks to see?
your advice would be greatly appreciated as I have a hard time to understand the full value of BPO ? or the conversion to another Brookfield units could trigger tax consequences and would it be a decent investment ? (looking for some income which BPO pays and also abit of capital gain: not too risky);
thanks!

Q: I was wondering if you are familiar with MOB.UN? It had quite a spike on the increase in the dividend after acquiring some hospitals in Brazil, but has settled back to a 10% yield. Do you think it is ok, and any comments on the parent company? Thanks for the great info here.

Q: Could you rank the following mortgage companies for me: Firm Capital (FC), First Financial (FN), Timber Creek (TMC) and MCAN (MKP). They have been great for income and are 10.5% of my portfolio. I have held most of these for a lot of years. Should I reduce my holdings?

Q: Hi Peter and 5i Gang,

Last year I reallocated some of my portfolio to Canadian REITs, unfortunately at the worst time! Before any indication of tapering and the resultant sector decline. So I am underwater between 5% and 20% on my REIT positions now. I notice that they haven't been bouncing back all that enthusiastically and am scratching my head as to why not and whether or not to reallocate out of REITs.

Any thoughts or comments on the sector? Are you able to give me your thoughts about the future prospects of NWH.UN, my worst performer (-19%)?

Many thanks, Derek

Q: INO.un attracted my attention with its high yield. If Europe is in recovery mode this one could move higher. DI.un also in Europe but concentration in Germany, a much bigger Reit with roughly the same yield. I would appreciate your opinion and which one would be your choice or would you prefer another Reit? Which one?

Thanks
