• There may be a place for REITs in a portfolio
• Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) have unique characteristics that may make them attractive to both income and growth investors. 
• REITs trade like stocks and can fluctuate in price, but they also pay out a large part of their income in the form of rentals. 
• REITs may be used to help provide income in conservative portfolios or long-term growth in more aggressive portfolios. 
• Some portion of a portfolio may be appropriately allocated to REITs for a broad range of investor types
• Reconstruct your portfolio to include REITs 
• Equity, bonds, cash, and REITs generally do not react identically to the same economic or market stimuli, combining these assets may produce a more appealing risk-and-return trade-off.

• Whether you are an investor seeking long-term growth or income, you may want to consider finding a place for REITs in your portfolio
