REETAiShares Global REIT ETF

RITACETFB Green SRI REITs ETF

In short

REET One ticker, roughly 300 listed REITs across developed and emerging markets, US included, for 0.14% a year. The plain-vanilla global landlord basket, at a fraction of what its category usually charges.

RITA Most REIT funds sort by yield or size. RITA sorts by two filters at once: Shariah compliance and green building credentials, applied to developed-market REITs through an FTSE EPRA Nareit index. A narrow niche, run by published rules.

Stated mandate

REET The fund seeks to track a global real-estate-equity index covering publicly listed REITs in developed and emerging markets.

RITA The Fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the performance of the FTSE EPRA Nareit IdealRatings Developed REITs Index.

Why people hold it

REET Charges 0.14% a year, well under the typical fee among global real estate funds.
Covers global REITs in one line, US included. Ex-US peers like VNQI and HAUZ leave the home market out by design.
Roughly 300 REITs spanning developed and emerging markets, with distributions paid quarterly.
A multi-billion-dollar, actively traded fund running since its 2014 launch, and it has hugged its index tightly.

RITA Rare double screen: its FTSE EPRA Nareit IdealRatings index filters developed-market REITs for Shariah compliance and green criteria in one ticker.lseg.com
The rulebook is public. FTSE Russell posts the ground rules and Islamic screening guidelines, and constituents are re-screened on a set review calendar.lseg.com
Screens usually cost extra. This one's 0.50% expense ratio sits right at the median for global and international real estate funds.
Plain plumbing underneath: a 1940 Act index fund holding developed-market REITs, paying distributions quarterly.

Worth knowing

REET One sector, start to finish. REIT prices move with property values and interest rates, and nothing outside real estate is here to offset that.
Foreign listings mean overseas currency moves flow into what a US investor sees.
The index holds REITs specifically, so real estate operators and developers not structured as REITs fall outside it.ishares.com

RITA Broad global REIT trackers cost a fraction: HAUZ at 0.10% and REET at 0.14% against RITA's 0.50%. The screens are what the extra buys.
Small and thinly traded, so bid/ask spreads can run wide and limit orders matter more here than with the giant REIT funds.
The screens cut the developed REIT universe down to a few dozen names, so single-name and property-type concentration runs higher than in a broad index.stockanalysis.com
