Q: Good Morning
I am the holder of several bonds of the above noted REITs. The maturities of these bonds are from 2021 to 2023.

According to Moody's, REITs have a "low exposure" to Global Covid-19. However, I would like to get your own expert opinion whether these two REITs will be able to meet their obligations to the bondholders during the next three years.

As always I appreciate your comments.
Thank you.

Q: The REIT sector seems to have been decimated. Residential REIT's which usually hold up better have come down big along with the Industrial REIT's.

Would not be a good time to accumulate some of the residential REIT's in Canada. Why would these companies decline so much ? Are they being priced such that folks will not be able to pay rent forever ?

Q: Both are tracking the last month in a similar downward trend. I understand why CPD is down with a predominance of reset preferreds and lower interest rates. Why is ZRE taking a hit with lower interest rates?

Q: Regarding this company's net income vs. dividend payout, it doesn't seem to support it. From its free cash flow perspective, its also short of the dividend payout amount. Please comment.
Secondly, is there another healthcare REIT similar to this one with a good dividend that we can compare. Thank you.

Q: This company, like many other hotel companies, has been clobbered the last couple of weeks. Seems to be overdone in my opinion. HOT runs hotels in the smaller US markets (non-conference hotels) and they will not be hit as hard as the larger chains operating in the New York and LA markets. Any thoughts on the prospects and valuation after the drubbing?

Q: Hey, First time asking a Q ever..

For BPY.UN, are all their leases longer in nature and how much in danger are they in cutting they divvy? I would guess some of their tenants might be in danger if this keeps up but the contracts should be solid. Thoughts on risk/return for BPY.un?

Same questions for SRU.UN.

Thank you

Q: Hello 5i Team

The following companies have take over proposals in place:

ACI - offer of $33.50 closing price March 19 of $31.93
NVU.un - offer of $36.25 closing price March 19 of $27.08

Questions are:
1 - what are the likelihood of these transaction to close?
2 - are there other potential opportunities in the market that may be attractive?
3 - the Northview transaction looks attractive, given the distribution was never cut in the 2015/2016 oil downturn (although the share price went down to $16).

Thank you
