They provide an accessible way for investors to gain exposure to real estate without directly purchasing or managing properties. REITs trade on stock exchanges, offering liquidity, and are required to distribute at least 90% of their taxable income as dividends, making them attractive for income-focused investors. To qualify as a REIT, at least 75% of their assets and income must derive from real estate activities, such as rents or mortgage interest.
