The Canadian REITs we’ve found have grown their funds from operations (FFO) by at least 13% over the past three years

SmallCapPower | May 17, 2021: A real estate investment trust (REIT) is a company owning and typically operating real estate, which generates income. Properties in a REIT portfolio may include apartment complexes, data centers, health care facilities, hotels, infrastructure—in the form of fiber cables, cell towers, and energy pipelines—office buildings, retail centers, self-storage, timberland, and warehouses. To qualify as a REIT, a company must meet certain criteria with the CRA. Requirements include investing at least 75% of its assets in real estate, cash, or Canadian government bonds, receiving at least 75% of revenue from property rents, and payout 90% of taxable income to shareholders in the form of dividends. If the REIT meets these requirements, then it is exempt from corporate taxes. Today, we have sifted through and found four Canadian REITs with the best three-year growth in funds from operations (FFO). FFO is the metric used by real estate investment trusts (REITs) to define the cash flow from their operations.
