In this video, we take a beginner-friendly look at real estate investment trusts (REITs) and why they’re often associated with higher dividend income. We start by breaking down what a REIT actually is, including the requirement to distribute at least 90% of taxable income to shareholders, and why that structure can make REITs appealing for income-oriented investors. We’ll also discuss some of the potential pros and cons, such as income consistency, sensitivity to interest rates, and differences between REIT sectors.

From there, we compare two real-world REIT investment candidates side by side using common evaluation metrics like yield, payout sustainability, and overall business model considerations. After weighing the trade-offs, we select one REIT to add to an example portfolio, walking through the decision-making process step by step to show how an investor might approach REIT selection in a structured way.
