Would you invest in a Real Estate Investment Trust at this time?
Sure…you could also buy an alternative asset manager like Blackstone or KKR that have large RE holdings but also own businesses and other asset classes but also pay a decent dividend.
There are REITs that specialize in commercial RE, others in apartment complexes, others in medical offices, etc.
