Q: Greetings 5i members
I have been thinking about increasing my reit exposure. I know that you like tcn and Granite reit. There is also a US reit that you have mentioned from time to time. I tried to look it up on the site by going through the questions. But nothing rang a bell. I am quite sure you will know the company I am talking about. Out of the two mentioned and the so far unknown US reit, which would be your favourite and why? I cannot see either any advantage in holding a Canadian reit in a registered account. Nor can i see a disadvantage in holding a US reit. Do you see any advantages or disadvantages one way or another?

Thanks as always for the great service you provide

Q: Decision time...all because WIR.UN is being acquired. When WIR.UN was bought in Cdn loonies, I flipped it to the US dollar side of the account. Now will have US dollars to top up one or more of 44 US positions. But which ones? Like BLK, a very large asset manager with exposure to index ETF that has held up well. Or a specialty retailer, DG. Or TDOC that looks to have a bright future but is down at the moment market price wise. Or finally, XYL with it's water machinery and it has market momentum at this time. Me, looking for your take....like which one or some of these at this time or any others US ones you are excited about. Many thanks for your insights, aka guidance to me.........Tom

Q: I would like to diversify my REIT holdings geographically. I currently hold a reasonable position in CAR.UN and an overweight position in TCN. I would appreciate any recommended REITS with operations in the USA or Europe that are registered in either Canada or the USA. Is there anything like another another Tricon Residential available?
With appreciation for your great service.

Q: If you were entering new money today to try to yield at least 4 or 5 percent, what would be your top 5-10 dividend income stocks in Canada that you feel would be a safe hold for at least ten years? Alternatively, what would be your top dividend stocks in the U.S. obviously yielding less?

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....
