Did you know?
Some of the most iconic office buildings in America are owned by REITs including the Empire State Building, Embarcadero Center and the Prudential Center.
REITs don’t just own skyscrapers, they also own suburban office towers and office parks across the country.
Because they can hold multiple tenants of differing sizes, REIT-owned office buildings and office parks help small businesses find space they can afford, helping jobs in America.
REITs are proactively redeveloping office space to meet the changing needs of today’s workforce.
REITs not only employ hundreds of thousands of people themselves, but millions of additional Americans work in one of the more than 511,000 properties owned by a REIT. And because REITs allow everyday Americans to invest in valuable real estate, the place where you earn your living might also be an investment in your portfolio.
