This summary was created by AI, based on 9 opinions in the last 12 months.

Chartwell Retirement Residences (CSH.UN-T) is positioned well within the retirement residence market, benefitting from aging demographics and a lack of new supply. Most experts are bullish on the stock, highlighting its solid fundamentals, including high occupancy rates above 95%, which are expected to improve further. Analysts agree on the company's potential for growth, noting its strategy to expand through acquisitions rather than traditional equity raises, which has generated some volatility but is largely seen as a sound long-term approach. Despite its current high price-to-earnings ratio compared to peers, many believe in its strong growth narrative and ability to maintain or increase margins over the coming years, with positive trends in earnings growth projected through 2028.

Sienna,SIA.TO

TOP PICK

Very good set of assets. Management team is one of the best in the business. Undervalued.

SELL

An appealing area to have a REIT in. There is some question as to what the government will consider, a REIT or a business. Yield is less than 7%.

HOLD

Senior housing. Do not qualify as a REIT under government regulations and are moving into a taxable situation due to expansion. Had been sellers when the stock was higher.

BUY

Does not qualify as a REIT under the government legislation. Have been raising money and expanding. Good operation with a fairly good yield.

HOLD

Seniors housing, so will not qualify as a REIT under the government's legislation. We'll become a business trust with a 4-year tax holiday. Operations seem to continually be a difficulty for the sector.

HOLD

Has struggled with some operating issues. Very high growth oriented. Seniors’ housing is a business that she likes longer-term, but a challenge they face is their fast growth creating high expenses. 2008 will be a relatively good year for them.

HOLD

Have retirement properties in both Canada and US. Operating costs have been higher than expected in the last 2 quarters.

BUY

A seniors-housing REIT. Focuses primarily on independent and assisted living. Have a great joint venture with the US firm. This is a “ buy and hold” for the long-term. Good management.

HOLD

ING Realty Investors are rumoured to be interested in this as a takeover. The company has made some recent acquisitions that are attractive. The market has some uncertainty as to how the government will treat this REIT. Feels it is expensive.

TOP PICK

Seniors’ housing provider. 7% yield. If you have a long-term time horizon, you can make 8%-10% a year.

BUY

A seniors housing REIT. A large growing portfolio in the US. This is a very fragmented market and they are making a lot of accretive acquisitions. Leverages the little higher than normal. Expect them to grow into their payout ratio. Looking for distribution increase towards the end of the year.

WEAK BUY

Has made some major acquisitions, of which, one has not performed well. This is probably something worthwhile looking at. The worst is probably already in the market. They'll have to do something to do with their structure. Has potential, but more risk than others.

BUY

Long-term care industry in Canada and US. Had brought 3 companies together and had some issues with operating costs, but he thinks they have a legitimate chance of bringing this under control. Sees good growth opportunities in the US and somewhat in Canada.

COMMENT

New trust rules say that to qualify as a REIT, 75% of the properties have to be in Canada. Also, only 5% of your overall revenue stream is coming from management fees. There’s ways around this. Retirement businesses are very highly regulated.

COMMENT

REITs are up about 5% since the Oct 31/06 announcement as most are excluded from the new legislation. Those that aren’t are quite capable of restructuring. Will continue to be pressure until the rules are clarified.
