In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon is joined by Daniel Foch to take a deep dive into Canadian REITs and the major forces reshaping the real estate market.

They discuss why residential REITs are facing pressure from falling rents, rising vacancies, and slowing population growth, while retail REITs have been surprisingly resilient thanks to strong occupancy, rent increases, and valuable land redevelopment opportunities. They also cover the office sector, where return-to-office trends are helping at the margin but vacancy rates remain well above pre-pandemic levels, especially outside top-tier buildings.

Simon and Daniel also look at industrial REITs, the impact of overbuilding, the role of higher interest rates, and whether areas like data centres could become an interesting opportunity for Canadian real estate investors. They wrap up with a discussion on office conversions, adaptive reuse, and what investors should watch before jumping into beaten-down REITs.

Tickers discussed: CAR-UN.TO, BEI-UN.TO, IIP-UN.TO, KMP-UN.TO, REI-UN.TO, SRU-UN.TO, CHP-UN.TO, PMZ-UN.TO, AP-UN.TO, D-UN.TO, RPR-UN.TO, GRT-UN.TO, DIR-UN.TO.
