Agree Realty and VICI Properties are high-quality REITs with strong fundamentals and impressive total returns, but currently offer little margin of safety due to their run-up in share prices. Investing with a margin of safety helps manage market volatility; for example, my cost basis of $53 for Realty Income has helped me stomach volatility and the stock's underperformance. I recommend assigning stocks specific roles in your portfolio; for example, Starwood Property for stable dividends, PepsiCo for moderate growth, and Visa for high growth, balancing income and growth.
