Mind the Valuation Gap Between Private and Public Real EstateMindtheValuationGapBetweenPrivateandPublicRealEstate

Risks—Investing in real estate poses certain risks related to overall and specific economic conditions, as well as risks related to individual property, credit, and interest rate fluctuations. Nondiversified investments may be subject to greater volatility or loss resulting from a particular security or sector will have a greater impact on the return. Foreign securities are subject to currency fluctuation and political uncertainty. Real estate investment trusts (REITs) may not be appropriate for all investors. There is no guarantee a REIT will pay distributions given the inherent risks associated with the market. A REIT may fail to qualify as a REIT as defined in the Tax Code, which could affect operations and negatively impact the ability to make distributions. There is no guarantee a REIT’s investment objectives will be achieved.
