Q: Hi all,
I was happy to see the deal announcement regarding AAR.UN this morning. I will likely look to sell now rather than wait. I am considering replacing with another REIT or in preferred shares. Considering a balanced portfolio and everything else being equal, looking for both a +4% yearly distribution return and should be a long-term hold, any suggestions? (This is held within an RRSP.) Thanks.

Q: I have held Summit for a bit over a year and been happy with it - but - this is the third equity offering in 12 months, which is becoming rather frustrating. Does this seem excessive for a company of this size and in this sector? Could you comment on their debt, payout, this latest offering and the company in general? I hold it mainly for sector exposure and income.
Thank-you

Q: I am considering adding pure play "Industrial" REITs to my REIT allocation. I currently have sufficient representation in the apartment and office/commercial sectors of the Canadian REITs

Please rank in order of preference the 5 pure play industrial REITs on the TSX. Am I missing any other names?

The market capitalization of the REITS are: Pure Industrial ($1.42B); Dream Industrial ($499M); WPT Industrial ($436M);Summit Industrial ($101M); and Edgefront ($68M).

Is Edgefront REIT too small to invest in?

Given Pure Industrial has Canadian and US holdings is it better than a 50/50 split of Dream (or Summit) and WPT which would give the same proportion of Canadian and US real estate holdings.

Please confirm whether WPT is traded in US dollars on the TSX.

Thanks for the excellent service.

Q: These are the only 2 stocks I own in roughly equal portions of $41,000.00 each in my TFSA.
I am looking at selling equal amounts of each stock to buy another equally weighted stock.
I prefer small caps with a 5%+ yield and good growth potential for long term hold. DRIP if possible.
Would you name 3 stocks which you think may be suitable. Thanks
Derek
