10 REIT Investor Mistakes: Avoid Them At All Costs

I present common REIT investor mistakes that you should avoid at all costs in 2023. REITs (VNQ) have historically generated high returns, even outperforming the S&P500 (SPY), Tech stocks, bonds, gold, and private real estate. Realty Income Corporation (O), W.P Carey (WPC), VICI Properties (VICI) Public Storage (PSA), and American Tower (AMT) have earned up to 15% annual total returns. But not all REITs have been good investments. On the contrary, many REITs have led to significant losses and unfortunately, individual investors often invest in the wrong REIT at the wrong time.
