These companies become very advantageous to investors when they have a tax advantage retirement account, like an IRA.
• 00:10:00 This video explains how different types of REITs invest in different types of assets, and how this can impact an investor's portfolio. REITs tend to be more stable and have a wider range of investment options than traditional real estate companies. However, mortgage rates are not handled in the same way as traditional stocks, so it is important to understand the distinction between the two before investing.
• 00:15:00 The video discusses four different types of investments: stocks, bonds, real estate, and cryptocurrencies. The main point is that a reit's payout ratio (the amount paid out compared to the amount taken in) is often above 100%, which can be a sign that there is a dividend cut forthcoming. However, payout ratio is a flawed measure and should not be relied on when evaluating a reit. Instead, funds from operations should be evaluated.
