Our read on REZ
BThe REIT fund that skips the office towers and the malls. REZ owns apartments, rentals, healthcare properties and self-storage, the real estate people live in, age in and stash their stuff in, and it has done so since 2007.
The fund seeks to track an index of U.S. residential, healthcare, and self-storage real estate equities.
Why people hold it
- Narrow by design: residential, healthcare and self-storage landlords, so apartments and rental housing drive it rather than offices, malls and cell towers.ishares.com
- Does what the label says: it stays close to the FTSE Nareit All Residential Capped Index instead of drifting toward generic broad-market REIT exposure.
- Live since 2007, so its record spans the housing crash, the rate shock and the pandemic rent cycle. No other fund in its real estate peer group tracks this same index.
- Roughly 40 property owners, with distributions paid quarterly.
Worth knowing
- At 0.48% a year it costs more than plain broad REIT index funds such as SCHH (0.07%) and VNQ (0.13%). The housing tilt is what the extra fee buys.
- Thinly traded next to the largest REIT funds, which can mean wider bid-ask spreads at the moment of a trade.
- Leaving out offices, malls, data centers and towers means stretches where it moves quite differently from a broad REIT benchmark.
