What Are The Benefits To Investing in REITs?
REITs offer both stable income in the form of dividends and also have a potential for long-term capital gains when properties are sold. Investors have the ability to own shares in a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate properties that they would not be able to provide on their own. Publicly traded REITS also offer the benefit of being a liquid asset that can be bought and sold on major stock exchanges, unlike the properties themselves which are illiquid.
