BUY

REITs should be a part of any portfolio where someone is trying to get yield. It is a reasonable valuation at this point so it is okay to nibble away. Go to a half position. If we pull back 5% then up your position to 10%. There are risks if interest rates rise over the next few years.

DON'T BUY

This is somewhat dependent upon rates. Interest rates and mortgage rates, which have been going up in the past 2-3 months. This one is a real estate investment trust, not as mortgage dependent, but in the past 2-3 months as rates have started to go up in the long end, the value of real estate investment trust products have dropped fairly precipitously. Doesn’t know if it will drop much further but doesn’t think it will do that well going forward. Thinks real estate is in for a rough ride for the next 2-3 years.

COMMENT

If you stick with real estate on the longer-term basis, you’ll probably do just fine. If he were doing real estate, he would just go for one of the bigger names, and in this case that would be RioCan Real Estate Investment (REI.UN-T). This way you can forget about paying the extra fee for an ETF to manage an equal weight model. This gives you a monthly income.

WEAK BUY

Equal weight ETF. You are better off with a fund. Over the next few years he thinks REITs will do fine.

COMMENT

He owns this and will stay with it for at least this quarter but he is also looking at iShares Global Real Estate Fund (CGR-T) which has about 45% holdings in the US and about 30% in Asia.

WAIT

REITs. XRE-T and ZRE-T. Differences are the weightings. It's expensive and there is a 5% correction risk. Wait for that if you want to place more money. Sector should be okay from an interest rate perspective. Not a lot of value in the REITs at this point.

COMMENT

REITs will back off once the interest rates start to go higher. This is a good product. Likes that it is equal weight among the various REITs.

WEAK BUY

No problem with it. It is equal weight. No problems with liquidity. He sold recently because he wanted cash in anticipation of these markets. Trading close to 52 week high. It is interest rate sensitive and there are questions about bubbles in the market.

BUY

Equal Weight REITs Index ETF. The key word is that it is “equal weight” making it one of the more attractive products as you are spreading your risks. Yield of around 6%.

BUY

Equal Weight REIT ETF. Likes this and the S&P/TSX Capped REIT (XRE-T). The difference between the 2 is that the XRE is about 25% Riocan (REI.UN-T). Either one is good.

COMMENT

Equal Weight REITs Index. Equal weighting as a risk management tool is probably not too bad. Won’t grow as much as emerging market ETFs but will be more stable. Some people think real estate may take a bit of a downturn when there are rate hikes.

COMMENT

Equal Weight REITs Index ETF versus S&P/TSX Capped REIT (XRE-T)? The decision on REITs is to how much you like RioCan (REI.UN-T) because the latter is about 25% of this company while the former is about 7%..

BUY

iShares S&P/TSX REIT ETF (XRE$-T) or BMO Equal Weight REITs Index ETF (ZRE-T)? Both good products. iShares are always cap weighted and BMO works on a basis of equal weighted products.
