Andrew Moffs Boardwalk REIT BEI.UN-T PAST TOP PICK Oct 31, 2024

(A Top Pick Sep 27/23, Up 14%)

Great opportunity to buy now, near 20% discount. Cashflow growth is growing in a compelling way. Pullback due to concerns over population growth. Alberta still looks like a winner from inter-provincial migration for affordable housing.

TOP PICK

Headline "Soaring Canadian housing costs drive population boom in Alberta" tells the story. Affordable housing, with 78% concentration between Alberta and Saskatchewan. Despite being able to increase rents, they continue to be affordable. Discount to NAV, yet NAV continues to grow. Limited new supply, pricing power. Yield is 2%.

(Analysts’ price target is $66.70)
PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 06/22, Up 42%)

He knew going into 2023 that there would be an explosion boom given more immigration and the housing shortage. He owns CAP REIT too. This trend continues into 2024 unless supply-demand change, which will be slow to happen.

BUY

Good option for real estate as no rent control in Alberta. Safe dividend. Good option for investors looking to get exposure to real estate in Canada. 

DON'T BUY

Benefited from immigration in Canada. Lack of rent control in main market, Alberta. Fully valued now, easy money has been made. Housing shortage, too.

TOP PICK

Continues to execute. Valuation remains compelling. 2/3 of portfolio in Alberta, a growing province. 74% of portfolio in ALTA and SASK, where there are no rent controls. Strong earnings trajectory. Cashflow and earnings will increase. Yield is 2.1%.

(Analysts’ price target is $85.94)
BUY
Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

BEI.UN is still considered an 'oil sensitive' REIT because of its Alberta focus. The energy sector has been quite weak, and this is likely a big reason for its drop from $91/unit. But it is still up 8% YTD and 22% over one year. The last quarter was fine, but its relatively low yield of 1.87% and its higher valuation can limit investor interest at times. We would be OK buying for income and growth.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 30/23, Down 4%)

Great run up to his target price of $90, so he trimmed. Buying back now at attractive levels. Strong earnings results continue. Alberta is affordable and seeing migration.

BUY

Owns shares in business. Portfolio includes properties in Alberta which is not rent controlled. Recent share price sell-off not a concern. Overall is a high quality business. Concern around tariffs not a worry. Would recommend buying. Alberta is a great place to do business, and is expected to keep growing (good for business). 

TOP PICK

Affordable + non-regulated. So when inflation hurts its operating expenses, it can raise rents. Alberta's enjoying above-average population growth. Market's overly concerned about economic impact on Albertans. Yield is 2.44%.

(Analysts’ price target is $81.15)
