What makes REITs a superior investment model compared to an ordinary company?
Simple business model any investor could understand.Better earnings visibility reduces the possibility of over/under valuation.Since most of the surplus cash is paid out, there is better transparency.New investments require debt or equity, which means additional scrutiny of commercial viability.Limitation on share ownership reduces conflict of interest.Higher efficiency; companies can expand rapidly due to easy access to capital. This brings in economies of scale.
