PLD - The 7 Best REIT Stocks of 2020 So Far -- Are Any Buys?
We're going to look at this year's seven best-performing real estate investment trusts (REITs) of 2020, as of Friday's market close.
If you like dividend stocks, REITs are a great group to explore. They tend to have attractive yields because they're required to distribute at least 90% of their taxable income each year as dividends to shareholders in exchange for the special tax treatment they receive. Of course, like all dividend stocks, investors should be cautious when considering high-yielding REITs, as these are generally riskier. The stocks below currently have yields ranging from 1.4% to 6%.
