5 REITs to Buy While They’re Dirt Cheap

Just like stocks can be expensive, REITs can also be a bit pricey. But rather than use a price-to-earnings ratio, the best way to look at REITs is via a price-to-FFO. The idea is that you’re not paying too much for those cash flows. And that’s to the recent market hiccups, many real estate investment trusts are trading for bargain levels. Investors can get their rising dividends at a cheaper price point. With that, here are five top-notch REITs to buy while they’re dirt cheap.

There are bargains to be had, and one of the best could be Tanger Factory Outlet Centers (NYSE:SKT). That could make Ventas’ (NYSE:VTR) cheap P/FFO of 16 a steal for the long haul. Those investors with properties in the hottest market do better than those holding buildings in say Pawnee, Indiana. REIT Douglas Emmett (NYSE:DEI) certainly fits into the former camp. Cheap REIT Highwoods Properties (NYSE:HIW) is one way to capitalize on these markets. Apartment REITs have been some of the asset classes best performers since the recession. That’s included Mid-American Apartment Communities (NYSE:MAA).
