- Brookfield Properties will follow the same game plan of Brookfield Asset Management (BAM), its parent, by creating ownership structures floating them and earning management fees from them. Not only Brookfield Properties will de-leverage its balance sheet, which it badly need, but will establish high Return on equity revenue stream.
- BPO Reits will be sold to less than 50% by Brookfield in the future as Brookfield will not want to consolidate debt of the Reit. Also conversion to a Reit mostly will benefit retail investors rather than corporate subsidiaries, as dividend income flows between corporation tax free.
Given that I am not sure why BPO Properties shot up 10% on the announcement? There will be more supply of BPO shares in the future and higher cost structure given all the fees the Brookfield Properties will earn from them.

BPP shot up 10% because retail investors love yield...
"Creating the REIT will enhance shareholder value by broadening the investor base to retail and institutional investors and making the entity more suitable for income investors."
...
sure they like dividends but in this case the dividends are not a sign of value but it is imposed on it by BPO. still those properties that BPO properties hold are very good.
