Commonwealth Reit (NYSE:CWH)

Value Add portfolio with the occupancy +/- 84% occupancy, wall street doesn't under REITS -- this yield is going up as employment recovers the yield makes it worth the weight

REITs priced at historic highs while CWH languishes. Why?

This REIT really has been flat over the past year. Why did I pick them?
The 7% yield.

CWH (ex HRP) past the blood in the streets era, and heading up over the long haul. Nice divvy.......own a piece of Hawaii!

strong buy this one going up 1000 %

HRPT Properties meets the requirements of my "out of favor stocks" screen which looks for stocks with low forward p/e ratios, low p/bv's, negative earnings surprises and a low share price. Historically, the screen has outperformed the S&P 500 by more than 20% per year on average. This screen does best in bullish markets- so don't pick this stock if you are bearish on stocks. I looked over the balance sheet and it appears that this reit is cheaply valued in comparison to other reits. I also think risk of insolvency is low. Currently valued at 0.81 times book value and 8 times 2010 expected earnings.

reminds me of ADC , and O , both underrated here on caps

This met a high level screen to indicate a buy and strong outperform against its peers (other tickers in its industry). My 1st version of this spreadsheet devles deep into the company's balnace sheet and recent income statements, combined with other relevant price data for the company including insider/institutional holdings, short interest, debt levels, etc.
Testing capabilities of this 1st version of my automated, valuation spreadhseet matched with my personal criteria and see how it holds up.

The next 6 months will tell. I think that if they can get on top of the debt they will be a rocket in 2011

Strong Earnings/dividend producer that has been beaten down.

Real estate is low. Time to buy.

high yield

Low debt, cut dividend to preserve capital, low risk portfolio assets such as land in Hawaii and property leased to the government.

see DDR reference

Although the dividend has been halved, it seems that any company that chooses to buy back common shares can only be a good thing. If they stick to the plan to buy back 100 million shares as previously approved by the SEC, then the common shares remaining should be worth more. They've got strong leases with Health Care companies, as well as steady growth. I'm looking for at least a $2 plus up by summer.

As the economy recovers, or even before, as folks realize this company has properties in great locations, serving a huge health care market (that won't go way - cause people won't stop getting sick), allowing them to continue paying their dividends, HRP can only go up

Outstanding dividend and way undervalued.

HRP has been beaten down far more than it deserves. The market will soon begin to recognize this.

Way below book value, still paying dividends
