There are three types of REITs: • Equity REITs own and operate income-producing real estate. BRE is an equity REIT. • Mortgage REITs lend money directly to real estate owners and their operators, or indirectly through acquisition of loans or mortgage-backed securities. • Hybrid REITs are companies that both own properties and make loans to owners and operators.
