4 Resilient REITs to Buy Before the Crowd Returns

REITs are companies that own and lease properties, distributing rental income to investors as dividends. Although rising interest rates recently made REITs less appealing, they are expected to become more attractive as interest rates decline. Four REITs are particularly promising: Realty Income, a large REIT with a history of dividend growth; Vici Properties, specializing in casinos and entertainment; STAG Industrial, focused on industrial properties like e-commerce fulfillment centers; and Digital Realty Trust, providing data centers to major companies. Each REIT is well-positioned for growth, with diverse tenants and high occupancy rates. While Digital Realty Trust carries a higher price and lower dividend yield due to recent market fluctuations, its focus on data centers offers long-term potential.
