Special div Dec 31
So they announced a special dividend of .73 per unit at the close of business Dec 31. But it's payable in extra unit... so doesn't that mean more dilution and the share price will drop accordiningly?

A REIT by definition never pays any corporate tax unless their accountants screw up. All taxable earnings in all REITs are passed on (flow through) to unitholders all the time. That aspect of the HR process is standard. It is legal. mat

Essentially there is a share consolidation You have 104 shares for example after the special distribution and after consolidation you have 100 shares. Your proportionate ownership stays the same. There is no such thing as the REIT benefiting except when unitholders benefit. As owners, we are the "REIT" mat

Too funny and 100% accurate. We are the REIT, each unit is an equal weight of ownership. If you are upset the REIT is "hoarding" more of the cash and you want some, buy more of the REIT.
