Author's Opinion

The full half yearly contribution from the 2 newly acquired properties would improve UHREIT performance moving forward. However, it would be offset by loss of income from the divestment of Elizabeth and Perth Amboy self-storage properties which is target to complete by 2Q 2022. Let's see later whether managements would acquire any property after the divestment.
