REIT ETFs Can Help Diversify Your Portfolio
Sunday, June 13th, 2010Tom Lydon submits:
Good news: You don’t have to actually go out and buy real estate to have real estate exposure. Exchange traded funds that hold real estate investment trusts are just one of the easier ways to get your fix.
REITs invest their capital in real estate, and you can invest your money in the REIT by a buying stock or an ETF. REITs are required to return at least 90% of their operating profit to shareholders or pay dividends.
