Recently, having investment funds (REIT) has been largely a challenging experience for investors.

The sector still provided the prosecutors with a second income, generally speaking. This partly reflects the rules requiring a lion (90%) of annual rental profits, which are to be transferred to shareholders.

However, the prices of the shares of these real estate weakened after the recent activities of the Central Bank. Higher interest rates in 2023 and 2024 caused the net assets of these companies (NAVS) and raised the cost of the loan.

Time to invest?

However, when interest rates fall, there may be a good time to consider buying shares in these dividend -oriented investment trivia. Here are three to consider long -term passive income.

The highest grades

United group (LSE: UTG) is a leading player in the student accommodation segment (PBSA). This is not only a defensive part of the real estate market. It is in which rents bloom when the number of tenants is growing rapidly.

The latest finance shows that the income similar to resembling a 7% jumped in six months to June. This reflected both solid occupancy and the boost in rental.

Earnings are naturally sensitive to the levels of registration of universities in cities where Unite operates. However, its wide geographical trace helps to reduce this threat (currently it works in 23 British cities).

In addition FTSE 100 Planned acquisition of 723 million pounds Empirical ownership of students (if it succeeds) additionally diversifies its portfolio and will also boost the prospects of earnings.

Safety first

Self -resistant trust such as SECURITY (LSE: sheltered) have great growth potential, driven by trends such as:

• Growing urban population, which causes smaller residential spaces
• People move home more often
• The growing culture of “gathering” in which people gather possession
• Rejecting people and transfer items from home
• Online purchases development, increasing the demand for storage

Safestore is one of the two reit operating in this area. I like the specific one, because its 200 stores include Great Britain, Spain, France, the Netherlands and Belgium, which means that he has less geographical risk than companies operating in one country.

While the long -term image is clear, remember that the boost in rental and occupancy rates can fail during the economic slowdown.

Home conveniences

Renches on residential real estate have significantly slowed down. But the eternal exodus of investors buying on the list means prospects for companies like PRS REIT (LSE: PRSR) remains encouraging.

This trust has a portfolio of about 5,500 houses. It also focuses on the family homes segment, in which deficiencies are particularly acute. Consequently, rents similar to stable places increased by 9.6% in 12 months to June, greater than the wider rental market.

According to the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), the number of up-to-date properties entering the market last month fell at the sharpest pace than the Covid-19 pandemic. This is a positive divination for PRS REIT in the compact and outside.

A potential change in rental regulations may weaken future trust. But so far the conditions in this highly stable sector have been beneficial.
