Winthrop Realty Trust (FUR)

Steady growth and still offering a 10% dividend.

dividend and high rated REIT

A REIT with 5 Caps stars!

This is too good to pass up!

Good future earnings.

good balance sheet, well positioned when housing settles

I'm picking this REIT for my portfolio for the dividend and because this guy has been unfairly beaten up.

Stock found using custom screen. This REIT was destroyed, naturally, by the subprime/housing/credit meltdown. However, effective management, a dividend, and complete undervaluation by Wall Street offers an attractive opportunity to get a stock on discount. Risks include high debt, an unattractive future for the housing market, and general distaste by most for anything real estate related.

Stock suggestion lets see how this adds to my selections.

At its 52 week low. 6% div yield. I belive the dooms day scenario for R.E is priced into this stock. When the R.E cycle comes back i belive this stock will pop nicely. Might have to wait for this one but with a 6% yield why not park your money and wait.

Strong managers and no liquidity issues. Should continue to generate strong cash flows and gain from investments. It's a Berkowitz stock.

Why did the PE ratio shoot up to 200?

Along with Realty Income (O), Winthrop is one of my favorite REITs. Solid dividend income, beat up by the subprime mess but Winthrop will come through fine. Buying now gives you excellent share price appreciation over the next couple years along with dividends.

Don't mind me, I'm testing some strats.

Has had good profitability despite the subprime mess, still is beaten down, but appears to set for a comeback. I like this stock as a speculative play to continue to grow and raise dividend and EPS for the next five years. The company has solid management and has been very effective as seen by the company's high ROA and ROE ratios. A speculative play with a dividend and growth. Im in ,........

I am taking a risk on this one. I am betting that when the housing market turns around this is going to be one of the front runners. This company is on sale.

Heavy insider buying and Ashner knows how to make money. Very savvy and well connected real estate investor. Add in an almost 5% divendend too.

pleasse wake up world and find the good financial stocks. They are at deep discounts now. Don't buy into FRE, FNM, and all the banks stuffed with garbage, find REITs who will PROFIT FROM THE "SUB-PRIME CRISIS" and can we stop calling it a crisis. Come on people.

Real estate is hated and nearing a bottom... small caps may rebound slower as economy slows but as interest rates are cut, FUR will do well.
