Q: Hi, should have some exposure to R.E. Could you please pick two of these R.E companies you would prefer, with dividend , growth, and management considerations. This is for a unregistered acct. for long term. Or would you stay clear of this sector for now because of higher interest rates that are likely to come?
also if you have a better suggestion please include it .
Thanks

Q: Thanks for your previous answer on the share split in these companies. However, I have one final question. Should I deduct the book value of the spin off shares of pmz.un from the original book value of the HR.un shares to come up with an accurate picture?

Q: Hello Peter and team, I have held a position in the company for more than 10 years. It has been a roller coaster ride with a couple of boom and bust along the way. Recently, it has been recovering fast, with Covid restrictions lifting and people going back to offices. Does this run up have more legs? Is it time to trim? What will the rising interest affect REITS in general? Do you see better opportunities in REITS (not limited to office REITS)? Appreciate your insight!

Q: When I was awarded shares of PMZ I entered them into the program with a book value at the current share price, but in reality, I did not pay for the shares. Conversely the HR.UN became a 20% + loss. I'm wondering if this is okay or should the PMZ shares have gone in at 0 book value or the HR value be reduced to accurately reflect the performance of the portfolio.

Q: DRM is my largest holding at about 7% of my portfolio. I've let it grow in no small part due to its low beta predictability. It rarely goes up or down much, even on bad market days, and never for long. It has the smoothest chart I've seen in a long time. The last couple of days, though, have changed that. Down a lot (for it) yesterday and down 4.5% today, which it has never done in the last year. Do you know of any reason for the sudden change in its predictable pattern? What do you think of the company and stock?

Q: Hello. I don't understand what happened with these stocks. I'd held almost a full position on hr.un for about a year. A couple of months ago they made some kind of move and I was awarded pmz.un stocks. Suddenly I showed about a 20% loss on my hr.un holdings which is pretty well equal to the current value of my PMZ holding. I'm wondering if I should sell both and re-invest in better real estate stocks or sell one or the other and put all the proceeds into just one of these companies? Thanks.

Q: I have not seen any questions on Starwood for a while. It has a good yield. Is it a buy at these levels?
Thanks

Q: Hello Peter and team,
What do you think of Arc Resources? Is it too late to buy at the current price in the $15 dollar range? I was looking at vector vest and they feel chartwell and Sienna are over valued by 50 percent. This does not make sense to me. What metrics do you use to determine their valuation and in your view are they currently fully valued or still have some upside as the dividends are decent?
