These are established REITS with a solid record. Why would anyone take a similar rate of return from an unproven upstart. Look for this trust to drop in value after the issue is completed as it probably should be at a higher yield.

Yes, but REI has a proven record,vacancy rates are not a problem and they just reported great earnings.
Also, if the loonie goes up and they are not hedged, your dividend will go down.
But the part I don't like the most , is that vacancy rates in commercial real estate in the states are at 12%, while in Canada it is 8%, therefore I believe that the dividend does not compensate enough for the price.
