Q: Good Day Team,
Presently I have no REITSs in my portfolio, so hoping to add some.
What is the best step to take?
Put equal amounts in all 6 stocks listed or put in priority order with certain percentage in each. I have $5000. to invest in REITs.
Secondly, what order would you put them in, from best to the lowest.
Lastly, is there any REIT that you would change or add that may be better.
Please use extra credits as needed.
Thank You,
John G.

Q: Hello and thank you for your exceptional service. I am retired and dividends and other distributions are a necessary part of my income. In an environment such as we currently live in without inflation and with historically low interest rates. Aren't REITs a valid alternative to bonds and GICs? I own 15% in GICs, no bonds and I'm currently overweight at 9% in Real estate and wonder if my strategy is correct in your opinion. Should I remove some REITs exposure, which would you trim first and in what order from the list above. Where would you put the money instead? Thank you.

Q: Considering the recent market volatility and dovish tone from central banks, I would like to increase my exposure to REITs sector for some consistent income. Among the different REIT sectors, I am more lean towards to the Industrial sector, and currently looking to deploy some money into one of the names mentioned above. Any preference? Thanks. Tim

Q: The general objective for my portfolio is quality, dividend growth. Thinking about the REIT portion of my portfolio and recognizing that REIT dividends do not present the best growth opportunity, I am reviewing H&R REIT and Riocan REIT, both of which appear to be in repositioning mode. I could just hang in with them. Or I could sell one and buy an industrial REIT. Qs:
- should I hang in on both? (I am in the money on both).
- if I were selling one, which would you sell?
- of the Canadian industrial REITs, is Dream Industrial your favourite?
- would you consider Dream Industrial (or your preferred industrial REIT) of equivalent quality to H&R and Riocan?

Q: I think in a previous answer to a question on the Brookfield group of companies you suggested owning up to 15% of this group was OK. I am wondering about the Dream group of companies and your opinion of DRG.UN, DIR.UN, etc., and if you like them, what limit would put on ownership of the group and why?
