Overview: Commercial real estate is a cyclical asset with partial inflation-hedging characteristics. Investment characteristics of regulated investment companies are shaped by two sets of economic attributes: investment portfolio characteristics and legal constraints on the companies.

Analysis of the REIT attributes suggests that REIT investment performance since industry inception has been more or less as could have been anticipated.
