Abstract

In this final chapter, the real estate investment trust (REIT) will be discussed. These special investment vehicles can serve as a portfolio diversification strategy for investors seeking an investment which provides return possibilities in a variety of property types and locations. The REIT, while of relatively recent creation, has roots which trace back to earlier times. Students of real estate finance should be aware of the functioning and the strategy of REITs, as these entities have become increasingly more involved in real estate investment. The chapter concludes with thoughts of international dimensions of real estate.
