How to invest in REITs?

Choose a reputable and reliable brokerage platform that offers a wide range of investment options. Ensure that the brokerage account supports the purchase of REITs. Once you have a brokerage account, fund it with the amount you wish to invest in REITs. You can transfer funds from your bank account to your brokerage account securely.

What is REIT investing?

REIT investing involves real estate investment trusts. REITs own and/or manage income-producing commercial real estate, whether it's the properties themselves or the mortgages on those properties. Where REIT investing is concerned, you can invest in the companies individually, through an exchange-traded fund, or with a mutual fund.

Should I add REITs to my brokerage account?

Add REITs to your brokerage account can help you diversify, but remember that there are other assets on your favorite stock exchange that might serve you well. Plus, there are other ways to buy into different property sectors. Higher dividends: REITs are required by law to pay out at least 90% of their taxable income in dividends.
