How Do REITs Australia Work?
REITs are real estate investment trusts that own and manage a portfolio of real estate assets for the benefit of shareholders (aka unitholders). That basically means that they look for high-quality properties with great tenants that can lease the property for a long time (where possible). Then the rental income from the tenants is passed onto shareholders in the REIT. In a nutshell, that's essentially how REITs work.

Category of REITS
Now there are 4 main category of REITs you need to know, and that's:
Retail → Think of shopping centres, bunnings warehouse, or furniture store
Commercial → Commercial real estate are business driven, so that could be farm land, office buildings or even storage
Residential → Think of apartment buildings, student housing or single family homes
Industrial → Distribution centers, factories or production plants

REIT Investments Pros And Cons
The pros with REIT Australia are that it's generally higher yield (5-7%), the rental income is relatively stable, with most lease agreements there are built-in rent increases and there's the additional tax-deferred income.

The cons with REIT Australia is that it has a high payout ratio (60%+), tenant risk, very sensitive to economic cycles (depending on the type of asset), and potentially over-leveraging to improve returns.

Granted those are the REIT Investments Pros And Cons my filtering criteria for a great REIT are:
- High-Quality Tenants
- Weight Average Lease Expiry Of Greater Than 5 Years
- Essential Assets And Resilient Against Economic Cycles
- Earnings Growth
- Debt To Equity Ratio Less Than 0.6
