Why invest in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs)?
REITs let you invest in real estate without being a landlord. REITS work like mutual funds, investing in corporations that own real estate, like shopping centers or industrial parks, and distributing earnings as dividends. Remember, though, that they invest mainly in commercial properties, not single-family homes.
