The best book on REITs got even better 5 de enero de 2012

Por earslookin — Publicado en Amazon.com

Formato: Tapa dura Compra verificada

The earlier editions of this classic work have served as the bible for REIT investors for many years. Much of the material in those earlier versions applies even today. Now, with this new 4th edition we get additional perspectives — for example, how REITs managed through the tumultuous events of the past few years, plus an especially informative new chapter on investing in global REITs.

The writing is easy to follow even though the subject matter can be complex at times. Although it is written so a beginner can understand, it is not just for novices. This is a valuable reference work for seasoned REIT investors as well.

The book is divided into four well-organized sections:

1) The general characteristics of REITs, how they compare to other investments, how legislation has molded REITs (updated with the latest developments), and the types of REITS and the cycles they go through.

2) The history of REITs and their performance, as well as some common myths about REITs debunked.

3) Ways to value REITs and how to think about them in your portfolio. This section includes the invaluable new chapter on global REIT investing — how the REIT revolution spread internationally, and the practicalities of investing outside the US.

4) The risks of REIT investing and the author’s vision of the future of REITs.

If you are new to REITs and want to learn more about them, or if you are an experienced REIT investor looking for ideas, or if you are looking for the definitive REIT reference, this book offers a clear, concise, informative solution. Highly recommended!

Updates history of REITs through the financial crisis 1 de marzo de 2012

Por Richard Stooker — Publicado en Amazon.com

Formato: Tapa dura Compra verificada

This is the best book on Real Estate Investment Trusts and I recommend it without reservation. I read an earlier edition while researching my own book on income investing. It went through the history of REITs from 1960 to date, but of course didn’t cover the most modern era.

And of course the period from the real estate boom of thru 2007 through the financial crisis of 2008 and current Great Recession is of great interest to current investors. So I’m glad to see a new edition to bring REITs up to date.

The crisis certainly hurt REITs in the short run, but in the past few years it’s helped to show REITs are better able to function in a crisis than private real estate companies, because they cannot raise public equity cash.

This is an important investment class for everyone who desires current income — which keeps up with inflation — rather than speculative capital gains that look increasingly improbable for years to come.

Read this book closely and you’ll practically be an expert on equity REITs in the United States. It does not cover mortgage REITs, because they are different kind of investment altogether.
