Q: I am only 2% invested in REITs with BPY.UN and FCR.UN but will add more with time and when some consistency returns to market. Looking at my US cash balance I should be taking advantage of this investment market in a 'sane' way for a retired person. I researched this company and from what I read, mainly from Morningstar, it looks fine for me given it is a US dividend aristocrat as of last February and does support my need for cash flow.

May I have your opinion on this company?

Thanks....
