ETF.net Research

CLIMDClimate Global-Climate Resilient REIT Index ETF

MORTBVanEck Mortgage REIT Income ETF

In short

CLIM Most real estate ETFs slice the sector by property type. CLIM sorts REITs by climate resilience and tracks an index built on that idea, a genuinely narrow corner of the group with a fee to match.

MORT Landlords collect rent. Mortgage REITs collect interest. MORT tracks an index of roughly two dozen of them, a pure play on the lending side of real estate that has been running since 2011.

Stated mandate

CLIM The Fund seeks investment results that generally correspond, before fees and expenses, to the total return of its benchmark.

MORT The fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the MVIS US Mortgage REITs Index, representing U.S. mortgage REITs.

Why people hold it

  • CLIM REITs and related real estate companies chosen by a climate resilience screen rather than property type or geography. Nothing else in its real estate ETF group is built that way.
  • Rules-based, not manager discretion: it tracks the Climate Resilient REIT Index and seeks that index's total return before fees and expenses.
  • The basket is the strong part. On holdings quality and spread across names, it stands near the top of its real estate ETF group.
  • MORT Costs 0.43% a year, below the 0.51% median for real estate sector ETFs and well under niche peers like CLIM at 0.90%.
  • Live since 2011, a long run for such a narrow slice of the market, and it still does one job: track the MVIS US Mortgage REITs Index.
  • Rules-based and actively traded, so the holdings come from published index criteria rather than a manager's calls, and shares change hands readily.
  • Distributions land on a quarterly schedule, in step with a segment whose businesses are built around interest income rather than rent checks.

Worth knowing

  • CLIM 0.90% a year, well above the median real estate ETF fee. NURE (0.35%) and MORT (0.43%) cost a fraction, though neither runs a climate screen.
  • Launched in 2026, still small and thinly traded. Light volume can mean a wider gap between buy and sell prices at the moment you trade.
  • Cash comes back once or twice a year, not monthly or quarterly.
  • MORT Concentrated by design at roughly two dozen names, so one company's stumble carries real weight in the fund.
  • Mortgage REITs borrow to hold mortgage assets, which makes this corner more sensitive to rate and credit swings than a property-owning REIT fund.
  • One country, one industry. Cheaper real estate options exist (NURE at 0.35%), but they buy the landlords, not the lenders.
