Title: REITs Around the World: Your Guide to Real Estate Investment Trusts in Nearly 40 Countries for Inflation Protection, Currency Hedging, Risk Management and Diversification

Claim Your Share of Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) Profits From Around the World

NOTE: the Table of Contents is fully linked.

Ever since so many private real estate companies converted themselves into Real Estate Investment Trusts and held IPOs in the mid-1990s, and with the publication of the first edition of Investing in REITs: Real Estate Investment Trusts by Ralph L. Block, U.S. investors have been discovering the high dividend yields possible through investing in commercial real estate through publicly owned companies.

REITs do not have to pay taxes on the income they distribute to unit holders -- and the government requires them to distribute at least 90%!

This means they <b>pay out a lot more money than ordinary corporations (who have to pay corporate taxes).

REITs are cash cows.

What's not so well known is that countries all over the world have been following the lead of the United States and creating their own versions of Real Estate Investment Trusts.

Nearly 40 countries from Australia to Turkey have laws enabling some form of REITs, using the US as a model but ringing their own changes.

By investing in foreign REITs you can:

1. Have a stream of income that's <b>not dependent on the US dollar (or euro, or yen, or whatever your currency of residence is).

By investing in foreign REITs, you get income in a large variety of other currencies, which may be going up in value as the US dollar falls.

The two largest, oldest and most mature REIT countries in the world behind the US are Canada and Australia.

Which two countries in the world have recently seen the value of their currencies go up dramatically?

Canada and Australia.

But Canadians and Australians needs apartments, office buildings and shopping malls just like everyone else.

By buying shares of their REITs, you can get yourself some Canadian and Australian dollars.

Two other kinds of dollars are going up in value -- both from busy and booming Asian port cities -- Hong Kong and Singapore.

And both Hong Kong and Singapore have some great Real Estate Investment Trusts.

2. Have a stream of income from economic activity that may be up while your local area is down.

Most people's jobs are dependent upon their local economy. However, when business is slow in your area, it may be great in Paris, Dubai or Kuala Lumpur.

We also know that while <b>the entire U.S. real estate market can be slow, real estate in other countries may still be booming.

3. Worldwide inflation protection

Well run REITs will do all they can to increase their net incomes, including raise rents to keep up with inflation -- wherever they are located.

Ever wanted to benefit from Japanese people paying rent for their apartments?

Or from businesses paying for offices in prestigious districts of Paris?

Or from tourists buying clothes in the trendy shops of Soho London?

Or from jet setters tanning themselves at Mediterranean luxury resorts?

Or from Australian wine vinyards?

Or even from Bulgarian farmers renting land to grow wheat on?

Or from drinkers having a pint in AB InBev's chain of European pubs?

From the warehouses and shipping docks of China?

Now you can!

In the last chapter you learn the investments that you can tell your broker to buy for you to profit from REITs around the world.

It's simple, easy and -- in this globalized world of international financial crises, a smart move to protect you and your family's wealth.

Title: The Intelligent REIT Investor: How to Build Wealth with Real Estate Investment Trusts

The Intelligent REIT Investor is the definitive guide to real estate investment trusts, providing a clear, concise resource for individual investors, financial planners, and analysts—anyone who prioritizes dividend income and risk management as major components to wealth-building. Later this year, the REIT industry will experience a watershed event when Standard & Poors creates a new Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) sector called Real Estate. On September 1st, publicly traded equity REITs will be removed from Financials, where they have been classified since their creation in 1960, and begin trading as their own S&P Sector. This separation from banks and financial institutions already is attracting new investors, but REITs require an industry-specific knowledge that is neither intuitive or readily accessible to newcomers—until now. Using straightforward language and simple example to illustrate important concepts, this book will enable any reader to quickly learn and understand the lexicon and valuation techniques used in REIT investing, providing a wealth of practical resources that streamline the learning process. The discussion explains terminology, metrics, and other key points, while examples illustrate the calculations used to evaluate opportunities. A comprehensive list of publicly-traded REITs provides key reference, giving you access to an important resource most investors and stockbrokers lack.

Title: Watch that Rat Hole: And Witness the REIT Revolution

Leaving his Pennsylvania steel town home as a young man, author Kenneth D. Campbell scrambled to land a magazine writer’s job in Manhattan. He followed his new boss’s instruction to “Watch that rat hole,” newspaper slang for a “beat” or coverage topic. Campbell’s “rat hole” was the real estate investment trusts or REITs, untested entities just approved by Congress. In Watch that Rat Hole, Campbell intertwines his personal journey with his unique observations as an investment newsletter editor witnessing the REIT Revolution—his rat hole. He tells how that casual assignment became a distinguished lifework in three areas: Writing—Campbell wrote an influential REIT stock market newsletter and co-authored the first hardcover REIT book; Investment banking—He and his partner advised on more than two dozen mergers and acquisitions; Managing money—Campbell co-founded a major realty stock money manager. In addition, he provides an insider’s take on investment styles of 1980s activists including Carl Icahn, Michael Milken, Leland Speed, Sam Zell, and Warren Buffett and their nearly two dozen company purchases and takeovers. And, he presents valuable insights into a number of business and stock market issues. Offering personal recollections of the world of real-estate investment, Watch that Rat Hole gives insight into REITs, this little-understood—but pivotal—area of business and finance.

Title: Building Wealth Through REITS

A decade has passed since the launch of Singapore's first REIT, Capita Mall trust in July 2002. Despite that, REITs are not as popular as they deserve to be and continue to be plagued with misperceptions.
