If you buy REITs or REIT mutual funds in a ROTH IRA, you can collect the dividends and never pay taxes on them. You already paid taxes on the money you used to buy the shares, so the dividends and earnings are tax free.

What I love about REITs is that they're accesible to anyone, they're inexpensive and also don't have the stress of picking and managing a property to invest in!💯

@fififinance7469 4 жыл бұрын

Yes - agree, access is the big sell and while i was researching discovered that sophisticated investors tend to stay away because property is not easy to get into and manage, and you cannot sell a house at the touch of the button. Hence the actual returns are lower than owning the asset outright, and it does become more speculative than it need be. Maybe I am wrong, but I just feel like a total index tracker is a safer bet.. or buying a basket of housebuilders for liquid property exposure.

7:40, in the US as of 2019, there is now a Section 199a tax deduction associated with REIT income. So the net tax ends up being a little better than the ordinary income tax rate, though still worse (for most people) than the qualified dividend tax rate.

@Docklead 4 жыл бұрын

Doesn’t the deduction only qualify when investments are sold at a loss?

@PapaCharlie9 4 жыл бұрын

There's also a holding period and other requirements, and it does end in 2025 according to the way the act is currently written. www.reit.com/investing/investing-reits/taxes-reit-investment home.kpmg/us/en/home/insights/2019/01/tnf-kpmg-report-regulations-treatment-section-199a-dividends-paid-reits.html

@tysonkrehnke2835 Жыл бұрын

Hello, great insight. I think it's also useful to note that some "Dividend" paying entities have different tax implications in the US as well. When a publicly traded partnership such as the various oil stocks give you a dividend, it's always first considered return of capital. Meaning you dont pay any tax until you sell your position. Instead payments reduce your basis in ownership meaning you hit a larger gain on sale of those assets. After enough time your basis becomes zero and whatever your sale price is is the gain you hit. Fortunately long-term gain in nature.

Something that I am having a hard time finding on the internet that I would like you to cover is how REITs are started. With regular stocks, the IPO process is fairly known. But how does the trust of a REIT is started and initially made public? Also, there is such a thing as unit/share dilution in REITs that deserve mention here, as that can erode the individual value of the shareholder's position over time.

@michaeleldridge5640 2 жыл бұрын

REIT's also have IPO's. Private individuals or groups build a large amount of real estate assets and eventually decide to go public to increase possible investors and to grow assets.

Great video as always and particularly timely as many REIT's have taken big hits to their unit prices that are arguably well under their net asset values. So if picking and choosing the right ones, there is a greater opportunity now to take advantage of future unit appreciation (to enhance returns beyond their quarterly cash yields). But as always, there is appreciable risk if choosing ones with challenged balance sheets and allocations to properties that are likely going to be troubled for the foreseeable future.

@surfie007 4 жыл бұрын

In Australia dividends by Australian companies usually come with a franking credit. So because the company has already paid the 30% tax rate to the government, that money isn’t taxed again in your income. The franking credit (30% of that dividend) is used to lower the amount you pay in tax by the credit value. E.g you receive a $9 dividend by an Australian company which grants you a $3 franking credit. At the end of the financial year you would be taxed $100, but because of the credit you only are taxed $97.

Some years back, in the era shortly after the 2008 crisis, quantitative easing left the prime rate at 0 and mortgage rates around 3%. Mortgage reits leveraged 6, sometimes 8 to one, yielding dividends of 20% or more. I was surprised to not hear any mention of how leverage affects the decision process, both for risk and reward.

I feel weird investing in residential REITs given the high rent prices. It feels like I'm just riding the backs of the working class. Should something so fundamental as housing be seen as a space for investment? That doesn't feel appropriate to me. Investing in new housing, maybe, but not just buying and charging rent from existing properties, squeezing the renters market.

REITs give you the exposure for sure - but one of the advantages of the investing in real estate directly is the ability to leverage the asset and also have it as a diversification from your other equity type investments. However, during a correction, a REIT has had a co-efficient that has mirrored the general equity markets... well balanced video :)

@jherc12990 9 ай бұрын

This is a misconception,reits also use leverage to boost growth and have better economies of scale than a private real estate investor or an regular individual. Paired with appreciation the return is 2-3% better than direct real estate. There’s a limited amount of financing someone can do for building an apartment complex or warehouses across multiple states - let alone the management of those assets.

@proteus404 3 жыл бұрын

In Canada dividends paid by reits are usually non-eligible dividends so they are taxed at a higher tax rate compared to eligible dividends from Canadian companies. Having a REIT in a TFSA or RSP is better tax wise compared to having the reit in an unregistered account. If you have enough TFSA contribution room have reits, stocks and etfs in a tfsa and pay no tax on capital gains and dividends.
