REITs allow you to invest in large-scale, income-producing real estate without having to manage property yourself.
Dividends First
REITs are required by law to pay out at least 90% of their taxable income to shareholders as dividends.
Types of REITs
You can invest in specialized REITs that focus on retail, residential, healthcare, or industrial properties.
Liquidity Advantages
Unlike physical property, which can take months to sell, REIT shares can be traded instantly on the stock exchange.
