Dream Office REIT (D.UN-T) has garnered attention for its focused portfolio primarily located in downtown Toronto, which is appealing mainly to smaller tenants. Experts express optimism regarding a potential recovery in the office market, suggesting that conditions are becoming favorable. The stock is considered inexpensive at present; however, the overall yield has seen a reduction to about 6%. The potential for a single asset to significantly enhance leasing activity could drive further appreciation in stock value. Investors should weigh these prospects against the current yield, which remains attractive yet lower than previous levels.

Crombie, CSM.UN

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 15/07. Down 19%.) In June/07 sold two thirds of their assets so earnings were reduced. Q3 should be their first really good, year-over-year comparisons.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 23/07. Down 21%.) GE acquired their eastern assets. Any risk would be the Alberta market. Buildings are quite close to city centres. Very good management.

COMMENT

Sold a good chunk of their Eastern/Central Canada portfolio and held on to the Western B class and C class assets. With strong energy prices, there are signs that Alberta is picking up again. Good holding for now but would be out by 2009/2010 as there will be a lot of new construction in Calgary.

WAIT

Their future is pretty bright. Tremendous exposure to Western Canada. Unsure of what they will do next.

BUY

Almost entirely focused in Alberta. Office/industrial properties. Able to grow free cash flow internally. NAV is probably in the $40 to $42 range. This is for long-term investors. You have to understand that the Alberta market is slowing down but still one of the best markets in Canada. He uses it as a trade.

BUY

Not a bad REIT to own. Trading fairly cheaply at about 30% cheaper than its NAV. Sold their Eastern office portfolio so now 70% of their assets are in Alberta. Very short average lease life at about 4.1 years so there is significant upside on the rents.

BUY

One of the more dynamic groups. Have restructured and has become a western REIT. Sold off almost all their eastern stuff. Have rents that are well below the market and have about 12% coming up for renewal. Rolling them over at quite a high rate. Recently bought some of their stock. Have outside management, which some people don't like but the group is dynamic.

BUY

Will complete the sale of their Eastern portfolio to GE Real Estate in August. What they are left with is about 6 million square feet of Western Canadian assets. The sale gives them low leverage allowing them to continue acquiring assets.

DON'T BUY

Transaction with GE financing was very convoluted. Also, 15% of the capital gain is still being shoved over to the management arm, a 3rd party provider of management services for them. Last quarter had good guidance as well as good growth in FFO. Because of the credit blow out, institutions generally migrate to large cap REITs and avoid small caps.

COMMENT

Tendered his holdings in June when GE purchased their central and eastern Canadian assets. Got in again because it has become so cheap. Interesting at these levels, but there are some execution risks as you are not sure what management is going to do going forward. Likes the assets and the exposure to Western Canada. Good management.

TOP PICK

5.93% yield. Recently shed more than 2/3 of its assets and virtually all of the assets now are out west and are 85%-90% office.

COMMENT

GE purchased their central and eastern Canadian assets, so is now Western Canadian focused. Asset management has been moved to Dundee Realty Corp. GE and Dundee Corp. owns 16% of the outstanding units of the REIT. He is trying to evaluate what their oper

DON'T BUY

Dropped over 12% today and thinks it has something to do with technical issues. Sold off their eastern assets, the GE Realty, so they are leveraging towards the western side. There are problems and conflicts with the management in that they get 15% of all historical, current and future upside.

COMMENT

Assets (not the units) are being sold at $47.50. If you are tempted to tender, you should look at your adjusted cost base, realized capital gain and your marginal tax rate.

TOP PICK

Have been focusing more and more on office and out West. GE (GE-N) has offered to take all of their eastern operations so they will become a western REIT.
