What Reit Does
An educational reference on real estate investment trusts: the legal rules that define a REIT, equity vs mortgage structures, sectors, and how to read the key metrics.
The requirements that make a REIT a REIT — including distributing at least 90% of taxable income to shareholders.
One owns buildings and collects rent; the other holds property debt and earns interest. Very different risk profiles.
Exchange-listed, public non-traded, and private REITs — how liquidity and disclosure differ across the three.
Funds from operations: why REIT analysis starts here instead of ordinary earnings per share.
How REIT dividends are generally taxed and why the structure exists — educational background, not tax advice.
Residential, industrial, retail, office, data centers, healthcare — the property types REITs specialize in.
How Reit Works
The trust owns buildings that collect rent, or holds mortgages that collect interest.
REIT rules require most taxable income to flow out to shareholders as dividends.
A share of a REIT is a slice of a professionally managed property portfolio.

The structure requires it — distributing at least 90% of taxable income is a condition of REIT status, which is why income flows through to shareholders rather than accumulating.
