When Do I Buy REITS?

A reader asks: "You said you were watching REITS a few months ago and would pull the trigger if they fell.  Can we buy them yet?"

My answer:  Not yet.  I use the Dow Jones Wilshire REIT Exchange Traded Fund, (RWR - $66.32) to follow the REIT market.  Right now the fund has fallen 34% from it's high of nearly $100 to $66.  While that's a big fall at a trailing yield of only 4.3%, I'm still not ready to jump in.  Big cap U.S. equities still seem like a better deal.

Disclosure:  I do not own RWR.  I do own some commercial real estate though, in the form of a few different limited partnerships. Real Estate For Sale By Broker Image by David Neubert via Flickr.
