Looking for Books on REITs
I know the podcasts have mentioned REITs before and that some private REITs have sponsored the show. However, no one, to my knowledge, has mentioned a book on REIT investing. This is unusual for BP. I read an article by Motley Fool on these books and I am sure they are decent (link below). I typically like to ask BP because the people here are more savvy than the average person.
What I am looking for is a book that explains the basics of REITs: what they are and are not, how they are structured, what types of laws they follow, differences between private and public, strategies, types of properties they own.
