A REIT, or real estate investment trust, is a company or a group of companies that allows people to invest in a collection of properties that generate rental income. It provides a way for individuals to pool their money together and become co-owners of real estate, such as apartment buildings, shopping malls, or office spaces. By investing in a REIT, people can potentially earn a share of the rental income and property value appreciation without needing to directly buy and manage properties themselves.
