Overview: This paper provides an interpretation of owner-occupied housing as an investment and presents empirical results on the financial performances of houses and financial assets, including REITs, as individual investments and within a portfolio. The analysis shows that portfolios with 10% to 20% allocations to REITs historically have generally been able to achieve higher average annual returns, with no increase in volatility, compared to portfolios without REITs.
