Parks and Hotels is interesting, right now its trading at like ~6, and its expected to pay a dividend of 0.45/share which is an absurd div yield currently, however it will only make one more payment and then no more for probably a year as it recovers, the insider trading is ridiculous with the CEO buying a million dollars worth of it only a week ago or so.

 

I've put a little extra money into the market during these dips (REIT-wise, I'm a big fan of BXP and HPP), but I won't be doing anything outside of my regular every two week investment from here on out. Time in the market versus timing the market and all that.

I've put a little extra money into the market during these dips (REIT-wise, I'm a big fan of BXP and HPP), but I won't be doing anything outside of my regular every two week investment from here on out. Time in the market versus timing the market and all that.

Was a big fan of tech heavy HPP, couldn’t be a more ass backwards market right now tho so they’ve struggled mightily. Luckily you can still buy in these decently cheap compared to rest of the equity markets 

 

Hold for 2-3 years and you’ll realize it was a no-brainer. We’re not at the bottom yet, but it’s okay to be a little early. Just buy in small increments rather than loading up all at one time

I don't know shit about trading but why does every one keep saying we aren't at the bottom yet. I understand that the economic ramifications are yet to come but aren't you concerned that a lot of people are thinking the same thing?

Let's say the company just made it clear that they no liquidity issues and would easily make it through in to next year, do you still think it will plummet below last monday or wednesday with bankruptcy off the table?

 

I've loaded up on a couple REITs that were hit pretty bad lately. I'll share a handful of companies that I've had my eye on primarily in the multifamily, office, hotel, and development space that I'm happy to share and discuss.

Including: - Hudson Pacific (HPP) - Camden Property Trust (CPT) - Kennedy Wilson (KW) - Equity Residential (EQR) - MGM Resorts (MGM) - Park Hotels (PK) - Douglas Emmett (DEI) - Howard Hughes (HHC) - Essex (ESS) - Kilroy (KRC) - Vornado (VNO) - SL Green (SLG) - Boston Properties (BXP) - Schwab US REIT ETF (SCHH)

 

anybody know why mortgage reits rebounded so strongly today? ex. ladder is up 100%, and gpmt is up 200%

 

You do understand how the math behind that is working right? If a stock was at $100 and was hit hard because the credit market is riskier to default, and goes to $20's, that's a 80% loss. But if that number goes to $40 from $20, that's a 100% gain.... Buts its still 60% of where it was before when at $100...

So in this case: Ladder Capital was down to $2 - $3 a share, after trading around $17 - $18 for the last year on average. From $18 to $3 is a massive loss of what, 82%? Then, when that $3 goes to $6 - $7 like it is today, you now have a 95-100% increase from $3..... Simple math

I dont know 100% but Id assume this happened because the stimulus package eases concerns to many investors about a major short term credit crunch due to the knowledge that Banks (mortgage moratoriums for 90 days in Cal for 3/4 of the major banks) and governments will support, and will be further supported, with their short term problems. That concern is worse in the credit market because of the acceleration to potential default. I'm still trying to figure out if any are in prime position like a lot of the tradition REIT Equity guys, so I am also curious to learn more...

 

I put some skin in the game on a two REITs today. The way I look at it is this: probably not the best time to go all in on anything given vol and ongoing uncertainty, I think theres some stability that will come from the numerous support and stumulus packages, but no matter what, everything is at a very reasonable discount still. If worst comes to worst, just average down your positions and wait for the next div.

 

I'm scaling in (cost avg.) on mREITs over the next few months for any REIT that is only exposed to agency backed mortgages. Legislation will be passed, and pretty sure the guys on the outside of agency will be strait 'f-d', but inside companies will get a boost. Fundamentals are out the window. Ironically, Investors need to think long and hard about underlying assets for first time in several years.

 

yeah mreits are not in a good position. Without gov intervention they are done for. Most have high exposure to non agency loans. So unless the gov bails insurance co's and private debt funds funded by equity from private equity funds, there is no way they can stick to their obligations. All their debt is short term, and no one is lending short term, and all their positions are long term (mortgages) and no ones paying their mortgage .....

 

"for any REIT that is only exposed to agency backed mortgages" any chance you could explain what this means for someone who knows nothing about credit/real estate?

howd these bets work for you? Wish I went into mREITs but never pulled the trigger :(

 

Anyone else loading up on Americold (COLD)? I like their product a lot, I think as more people are going to grocery shop online in the future as it becomes more convenient, the cold storage/refrigerated market is going to be more important.
