  1. Home
  
  A REIT or realty financial investment trust, is a company that owns, runs or funds income-producing property. Modeled after shared funds, REITs traditionally have offered investors with routine earnings streams, diversity, and long-lasting capital appreciation. Most REITs are public companies that trade on significant stock exchanges, however other types of REITs are readily available to investors.
