TOP PICK	Mainstreet Equity Corp(MEQ-T) June 1, 2017 Trading at a discount to its NAV. Owns low rise in Alberta, but also a 3^rd of the portfolio is in Surrey BC. They have a huge balance sheet, because they do not distribute any yield. They just retain their earnings and buy properties at cheap valuations. The CEO is a good executor on his properties. They are less cyclical than the high-rises in Calgary. (Analysts’ price target is $41.00.) property mngmnt/investment 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Trading at a discount to its NAV.

BUY	Mainstreet Equity Corp(MEQ-T) October 27, 2016 It is a real estate company and not a REIT so it does not pay a dividend. They have apartment rentals in Western Canada. It trades lower than its net asset value. He will continue to hold it. They did a buy back of their shares. The float is only 4.4 Million, so it is a thinly traded stock. There is an opportunity for it to go up. Be careful because it is not as liquid as other companies. property mngmnt/investment 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	It is a real estate company and not a REIT so it does not pay a dividend.

TOP PICK	Mainstreet Equity Corp(MEQ-T) October 7, 2015 Apartment building vacancies are terribly tight. A third of their portfolio is in BC, which is doing quite well. They also own apartments that are lower in maintenance costs and that have rents of $800 to $1100 so they are not the higher end that are suffering. It trades at a 35% discount to its NAV and they have about $150 Million in cash. property mngmnt/investment 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	Apartment building vacancies are terribly tight.

TOP PICK	Mainstreet Equity Corp(MEQ-T) July 20, 2015 It is not cheap for a reason. 2-3 story apartment buildings in Calgary and BC. They are seeing weakness out of Saskatoon. They are holding up otherwise. They are great at returning 15% as an internal rate of return. When you get ejected from your house, where do you go? An apartment. property mngmnt/investment 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	It is not cheap for a reason. 2-3 story apartment buildings in Calgary and BC. They are seeing weakness out of Saskatoon.

TOP PICK	Mainstreet Equity Corp(MEQ-T) May 20, 2015 One of the cheaper stocks in the TSX. Trading at about a 20%-25% discount to its NAV. They own the mid-tier apartments (2 or 3 stories) in Edmonton, Calgary and Surrey. They have NOI (net operating income) growth of around 15%. They are refinancing and saving millions of dollars on financing costs. It is too cheap. It should be worth $45-$50. They are doing incredibly well in their numbers last quarter. property mngmnt/investment 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	One of the cheaper stocks in the TSX. Trading at about a 20%-25% discount to its NAV.

HOLD	Mainstreet Equity Corp(MEQ-T) December 29, 2014 The majority of their properties are in several Western areas. There is the question of oil prices. Rent growth should have topped out, yet they can still buy broken down apartments, fix them up and release them, so you should be okay for the next 5 years. property mngmnt/investment 0 0 0 0 0 0 comments	The majority of their properties are in several Western areas.
