Q: Minto and apartment REITS in general like Killam and CAR-UN.TO have fallen substantially Minto for example trading at about 53% of its one year high and a P/E of 1.56 which I know is not the best metric for reits AFFO looks good that being said do you think they have more than priced in the interest rate rises at this point and are a good buy here.

Q: Hello 5i Team
Thank you for the new update on Interrent REIT.
Reviewing the new report on Interrent REIT, the Peer Relative Evaluation section compares Interrent against ten REITs, however only two of the ten REITs (CAR.UN & NVU.UN) are in the residential apartment sector.
1 - Please comment on how companies are selected for the Peer Relative Evaluation section.
2 - Would it be more appropriate to compare Interrent against the major residential apartment REITs (BEI.UN, CAR.UN, KMP.UN, MI.UN, MRG.UN, NVU.UN) than to the Office, Industrial, Retail REIT section?
3 - Also given NVU.UN is subject to a takeover, is this a reasonable comparison?
Thanks
