Plaza Retail REIT (PLZ.UN-T) is an open-ended Canadian REIT with a portfolio consisting of open-air centres and stand-alone small box retail outlets. It offers a distribution yield of 7.1% and has seen improving sales growth and stabilized margins. The company's free cash flow is sufficient for its distribution payments. However, it is considered slightly risky due to its small size and minimal growth rates. Experts suggest considering it as part of a higher risk income basket, but not as an attractive single holding.

PLZ.UN is an open-ended Canadian REIT whose portfolio largely consists of open-air centres and stand-alone small box retail outlets. It pays a distribution yield of 7.1%, sales growth has been improving recently, margins have stabilized, and its free cash flow is sufficient for its distribution payments. It trades at an OK valuation of 12X forward earnings, and it is trading below its book value. We think it is a slightly risky REIT due to its small size and minimal growth rates. We would consider it 'OK' as part of a basket of higher risk income names, but not overly attractive as a single holding.

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. It has good growth expectations and has stable tenants. Should be able to increase rents in-line with inflation over time. Has large anchor tenants that helps with stability. This could also mean a bit less bargaining power to raise rates however. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

DON'T BUY
Very strong management, high credit tenant base with pharmacies and grocery stores. It's a tough leasing environment right now. Resiliency of retail is being questioned. If you want better growth, look elsewhere.
REAL ESTATE
DON'T BUY
The retail space was in tough shape before the pandemic, it is only worse now. He would be leery of investing in a declining sector.
REAL ESTATE
DON'T BUY
A small cap retail REIT. It is going to be a tough environment for them to operate in. Rent negotiation will be tough going forward. They are going to struggle.
REAL ESTATE
HOLD
Small cap shopping center operator in Ontario. Grocery-anchored is probably the safest place to invest in retail.
REAL ESTATE
BUY
Fine managers (who is also a major shareholder), but PLZ is in a challenge sector. Solid dividend, though, and reasonably valued. He likes it.
REAL ESTATE
HOLD
Outstanding management, who are large shareholders. The dividend is safe. He normally does not hold retail REITs, but this is the exception. A great hold. Yield 6%
REAL ESTATE
DON'T BUY
He thinks highly of the management team there. They own and operate and fix up retail real estate in Eastern Canada. He is not a bull in retail real estate. Retail vacancies have been persistent ever since Target left Canada. We are going to have record bankruptcies globally this year. But plaza is more necessity based retail, more plaza based.
REAL ESTATE
DON'T BUY
Great management. No one does development as well as they do. Suffers from being a retail REIT. Expects further investment and perhaps privitization. Has run up, close to fairly valued. Outside of a takeout, doesn't see significant opportunity for growth.
REAL ESTATE
HOLD
PE ratio In real the better measure is price to cash flow or FFO (funds from operations). Cash flow is more critical due to the high level of depreciation. He likes Plaza, but does not like the retail space. The management team is the best in Canada. It is undervalued. An okay hold if you like the retail space. Yield 6.6%
REAL ESTATE
DON'T BUY

He's more strategic in his REITs. Stays away from Alberta based like Artis. Playing defense. Looking for income coming from outside of Canada, such as with Dream Global. In Canada, likes the apartment REITs like Canadian Apartment. Would also look at the US.

REAL ESTATE
BUY
The yield is absolutely safe and the management team is one of the best ones out there. Development and re-development is still in their DNA. They buy correctly and put the right kind of money into properties and are capitalizing themselves through a balance sheet and payout ratio that remains strong. You won't see a strong rental growth profile, but you will get one of the best management teams with most of their own capital invested in this. However there is an absence of catalysts in this company. It s a slow and steady grower. (Analysts’ price target is $4.50)
REAL ESTATE
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 29/18, Down 0.03%) They are ecommerce-proof. Tenants such as Shoppers Drugmart. They are a developer so they add value. They have 25 projects in the pipeline. He thinks this is a real bargain. They steadily increased the dividend for 15 years.
