REITs are currently facing widespread dislike among investors. The negative sentiment towards REITs is due to the high-interest rates. I explain why I believe that most investors are misguided and highlight some opportunities to consider.

Urgent Warning To REIT Investors

Amidst the bearish sentiment towards real estate, a compelling opportunity to own REITs has emerged. The deeply discounted REIT market has largely priced in the challenges for real estate of higher rates and tighter credit markets. Areas of concern for real estate - office properties or too much leverage - are well-contained in public REIT markets. REITs generally possess high-quality balance sheets and have minimal exposure to traditional office space.

NAREIT has developed a financial metric called Funds From Operations, or FFO, that investors in REITs can use to better evaluate their financial performance. Dividend income plays a big role in why investors would seek to own stocks in REITs. What makes the FFO information valuable to investors is its correlation with the dividends paid out by REITs.

Connecting FFO To DPS For REITs

Cell Tower REITs have been the weakest-performing property sector since the start of 2022 - lagging even the battered office sector - amid a telecommunications industry-wide slump inflamed by tight monetary conditions. Cellular carriers have curbed their capital-intensive network expansion plans in recent quarters following a significant wave of investment and tower equipment upgrades from 2019-2022 to deploy nationwide 5G networks. The latest selloff was intensified by an expose alleging that century-old abandoned phone lines owned by AT&T and Verizon are leaching toxic lead into drinking water, potentially requiring costly remediation.

One of the hottest "inflation hedges" during the pandemic, land REITs have fallen out-of-favor as rising rates and normalizing supply chains have created disinflationary - and even deflationary - headwinds for commodities. While services sector inflation remains sticky, goods-related inflation has fallen dramatically over the past nine months, with some inflation reports now showing goods deflation levels typically seen only in recessions.

Strip Center REIT fundamentals have improved materially over the past year and continue to be underappreciated in the market as a decade-long “retail apocalypse” narrative has been tough to shake. The combination of near-zero new development and positive net store openings since 2021 has driven occupancy rates to record-highs and allowed Strip Center REITs to enjoy some long-awaited pricing power. These favorable property-level supply/demand fundamentals have translated into impressive double-digit rent growth spreads since mid-2022 and the best earnings “beat rate” of any property sector during that time.

Left for dead in late 2022 on expectations of a "hard landing" across rental markets, Apartment REITs are the third-best-performing property sector this year, lifted by surprisingly buoyant property-level fundamentals. Recent industry data has shown a reacceleration in rental rate and occupancy trends since bottoming in January, with rent growth appearing to stabilize in its typical "inflation-plus" range between 4-5%. This "inflation-plus" level of rent growth was the norm in the pre-pandemic era as housing demand outpaced new home development. Housing is back to being the primary driver of inflation.

Apartment REITs: Rents Are Rising, Again

In recent years, specialized technology-adjacent property types such as towers, data centers and industrial have gained prominence in the real estate market due to changes in consumer behavior, technological advancements, and their critical role in supporting the modern economy. The REIT universe looks much different today, appropriately reflecting the changes that are happening all around us. REITs are not just constrained to malls and offices; quite the contrary, the REIT sector is a dynamic one, with exposure to both secular growth dynamics and sources of bulwark stability.

Among the top-performing property sectors this year, the Data Center REIT rebound has been fueled by reports of "booming" demand for artificial intelligence ("AI") focused data center chips. Even before the Nvidia report, Data Center REITs were on the upswing in early 2023 after an impressive slate of earnings results showed improved pricing power and record-high occupancy rates. Ironically, this AI-wave comes just as Data Center REITs became a trendy “short” idea centered on a thesis of weak pricing power and competition from the "hyperscalers" - Amazon, Google, and Microsoft.

Despite lingering recession concerns, hotel REITs are pacing for a second-straight year of outperformance after punishing early-pandemic declines, buoyed by steady post-pandemic operating improvement and the long-awaited return of dividends. The final pandemic-era travel restrictions were lifted last week with the ending of the vaccine mandate for foreign arrivals. International travel demand should provide a healthy tailwind over the coming quarters.

With recent distress across office markets seizing the headlines, Mall REITs are no longer the "Problem Child" of the REIT sector, particularly after weaker players and lower-tier malls closed shop.
