Corporate Office Properties Trust (OFC)

CAPS Rating:
*

A fully-integrated and self-managed real estate investment trust that focuses on the acquisition, development, ownership, management and leasing of primarily Class A suburban office properties in the Greater Washington, D.C. region and other submarkets.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

This company will likely avoid the housing market meltdown. If only because it deals in office and commercial properties not residential real estate.

However it is carrying a large debt load. This can be very bad given the credit market crunch that we are experiencing. If it needs to...More

Poor achievement.
Pay more dividends than earnings.
Incredibly high P/E above 100. Projected P/E above 90.

They are overdue for a decent-sized correction. Too much valuation for too little of earnings.

A good REIT. Market oversold anything dealing with real estate. Pays a 4.2 dividend.

This company will likely avoid the housing market meltdown. If only because it deals in office and commercial properties not residential real estate.

However it is carrying a large debt load. This can be very bad given the credit market crunch that we are experiencing. If it needs to refinance any of its holdings it may not be able to find the financing it wants.

What I like about this company is that they are still paying dividends. Some REIT's have stopped paying dividends and abandoned their REIT status. If the FED continues to lower interest rates then their regularly increasing dividend will make them more attractive.
