Latest REIT Community Comments on #EQC
- Yes, I profited nicely on having bought #MNR shares in the past, and seeing the price increase on this deal news. I’m not sure if I should cash out now, or wait to receive #EQC shares, not sure how great a return #EQC share may be long term, I need to look more into it. - Gekko5 - 2021-05-06 11:06:56 - See full comment
- I never expected this merger between #EQC and #MNR. Equity Commonwealth is more focused on office properties while Monmouth focuses more on warehouses and industrial properties. It will be interesting to how this merger plays out. - zREITs - 2021-05-04 23:43:17 - See full comment

REITRating is REITNote's Real Estate Investment Trust industry-specific rating and ranking system. The REIT’s score for each analysis is out of ten points, with ten being the best score and zero being the worst. A score of zero can be assigned if the REIT does not meet the criteria for that specific analysis. N/A is assigned if insufficient data is available for a particular analysis. Our REITRating logic is continuously improving, so a REIT’s rating and ranking may change over time.
