Episode 143: REITS: The Simplest Way to Invest in Real Estate

February 19, 2025 • Elisa Chiang • Season 3 • Episode 143

The easiest way to invest in real estate is through publicly traded REITs, Real Estate Investment Trusts and REIT mutual funds or exchange traded funds.

Congress established REITS in 1960 which must meet specific criteria.

- Invest at least 75% of its total assets in real estate, cash, or US Treasurys

- Derive at least 75% of its gross income from rents of real property, interest on mortgage financing property or from sales of real estate

- Pay at least 90% of its taxable income in the form of shareholder dividends each year

- Taxed as a corporation and managed by a board of directors or trustees

- Must have a minimum of 100 shareholders with no more than 50% of its shares held by five or fewer individuals.

REITs can be a good source of cashflow, though they tend to be tax inefficient. REITs provide high liquidity and diversification and you can start with small investments.
