Features of REITs! (Part II)

Benefits of low-interest-rate environments: During downturns, when interest rates decline, the cost of borrowing for REITs decreases, improving their profitability and cash flow generation resulting in more income in your hands. REITs may also take advantage of this low cost of borrowing to acquire additional assets, further driving up unit value and income. Attractive for investors: The combination of high growth potential, stable income, low correlation with other asset classes, and the potential compounding effect with ability to beat inflation makes REITs attractive to young investors.
