Most REITs operate as equity REITs, providing investors with the opportunity to invest in portfolios of income-producing real estate. These companies own properties in a range of real estate sectors that are leased to tenants, such as office buildings, shopping centers, apartment complexes and more. They are required to distribute a minimum of 90% of their income to shareholders in the form of dividends.
REITs offer investors the benefits of real estate investment along with the ease and advantages of investing in publicly traded stock. REITs have historically provided investors dividend-based income, competitive market performance, transparency, liquidity, inflation protection and portfolio diversification.
Nareit and the New York Stock Exchange are partnering again to host the seventh-annual REIT Investor Relations Symposium. This invitation-only event is designed exclusively for IR professionals.
