Has lagged some of the others in regards to a housing play. Very cheap on a valuation basis at about 11X earnings. Also pays a dividend. Brookfield, which owns 65%, has been selling off shares which have capped the price a little bit. Great managed company. Thinks the sector is good for another 24 months.
