Stockchase Opinions

Paul Gardner, CFA BSR REIT HOM.UN-T WAIT May 31, 2022

At this point, no, though they have good assets. Good at what they do. Valuation is high. The theme of owning rentals has fully matured. CAD strength is a headwind. Well run. Small cap, good job of growing.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sep 29/21, Up 52%) All of its business is in the US. It owns multi-family in Dallas, Austin, and Oklahoma City. They are affordable rents. It is one of the cheapest residential stocks. The price should be north of $20.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 10/20, Up 60%) Continues to recommend it. Tremendous job on capital allocation. In one year, over 40% NAV growth. High growth, right market, sweet spot in rental market. Trades at a discount.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 28/21, Up 61%) Owns the middle market or more affordable apartments in the U.S. sunbelt. Management is good and the apartments are well run. There is still a wide discount to NAV so it is a little gem that falls under the radar screen. Suggests a price well above $23.00
BUY
A good one to hold. A definite buy. Focus in Texas, where there's tremendous population and job growth. In the affordable part of the market, which is where you want to be at this part of the cycle. Trades at 18% discount to NAV (intrinsic value). Lots of growth ahead, really great management.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sep 27/21, Up 1%) Canadian listed REIT that operates in USA (Sunbelt multi-family housing). Will continue to hold. Great balance sheet with operating incoming outpacing inflation. Fastest growing cities in the USA are in the Sunbelt. Stock trading at discount to net asset value.
Unspecified

It owns apartment buildings inn the U.S. with Dallas being the largest market and will have good cash flow growth this year. It trades at a wide discount to NAV with NAV being the private market value of its real estate. If a REIT trades at a premium to its NAV, he sells. If it trades at a discount, he buys.

BUY

Under pressure. Demand side is great in US, but high levels of new supply. 2023-24 might have more muted growth. Should have nice growing cashflow in latter half of next year. Discount to NAV. Comfortable owning it here.

HOLD

Well managed. Reason for underperformance has to do with interest rates and, more recently, with supply. No pricing power, material headwind. Tremendous demand in the US Sun Belt from job growth and migration. Expects lower growth, but could be good setup for 2025. Hold on, collect the yield, hope for better things in 2025.

HOLD

Performed well, but up against a lot of new construction in their markets. Difficult to raise rents in 2024. Trades at discount to NAV. If you like a stock levered to the US economy and US dollar, not a bad name. If you own it, hold. Earnings won't necessarily inflect materially this year, but over the long term you should be in a good spot.
