Our read on USRT
ACheap, plain-vanilla ownership of U.S. landlords: roughly 130 equity REITs for eight basis points, running since 2007. One of the least expensive doors into the real estate aisle.
The fund seeks to track an index composed of U.S. real estate equities.
Why people hold it
- 0.08% a year against a 0.37% median for U.S. real estate funds. Among the category's heavyweights, only SCHH (0.07%) is cheaper.
- Tracks the FTSE Nareit Equity REITs 40 Act Capped Index with very little drift, one of the tightest index jobs in its peer group.ishares.com
- Live since 2007, a multi-billion-dollar fund from iShares, holding about 130 REITs across the U.S. property market.ishares.com
Worth knowing
- One sector, one country. Real estate swings with rates and property cycles, so expect a bumpier ride than a broad U.S. stock fund.
- Actively traded, but the aisle's largest funds (VNQ, SCHH) turn over more shares. Worth watching the spread on chunky orders.
- Income arrives quarterly, not monthly.ishares.com
