The Starlight buy allowed TCN-T to expand apartment rentals in the US to be added to their single-family for rental portfolio of holdings. They were able to issue stock to the Starlight holders at very high values to bring them in -- a very smart strategy. This created a large overhang of shares that could hurt share prices. Recently TCN-T removed the overhang to allow them now to sell those shares unrestricted. Investors on the sidelines appear to have sopped up the surplus. The only reason it was not a Top Pick, is that he was blind sided by the share announcement. His discussions with the management team about the US acquisition is solid, he thinks. He likes the valuation of the company, he thinks it could be worth $13 per share.

A small Canadian REIT focusing on US middle market apartments. He likes these specific markets because they less risk around the affordability and the ability to raise rents without regulatory issues. They are trading at a discount to NAV, which confused him why they issued at a discount. Yield 4.4%

REITs in general have done well and are now fairly valued -- there are no desk pounding deals out there. You want to own them as they prove they hold their value in the late stages of the bull cycle. As we get more into uncertainty in growth, political turmoil and trade wars the income they generate is good. Don't expect a ton of growth, however, due to the required capex. Yield 5.4%

He likes holding this one. Apartments are doing well in the space. He worries if these are being over valued. REIT distribution yeilds need to be re-though. Real Estate is very capital intensive and high distributions may require more debt and more equity to get raised to pay them. He prefers a lower yield and low payout ratios. This REIT has done things well, with a low distribution yield that is allowing free cash flow to grow at 18%. He prefers owning apartment REITs versus owning a condo. Yield 1.8%

(A Top Pick Aug 16/18, Up 21%) If you want to own one international real estate holding -- this is it. They continue to raise lots of capital and have an army to deploy it. They charge fees to management assets and fees on the profits. The bigger the pool of assets, the bigger the fees they collect. Their inside owners interests are well aligned with investors. If markets do drop, they are best positioned to take advantage of opportunities. There could be some risk that regulations that come into the private equity market, but he is not too concerned it would impact their fees.
