Customer Review: Excellent Survey of Equity REITS But It Has Limitations.
This book is an excellent survey of the world of equity REITS. And it does sum up the value of buying each type of equity REIT. But if you’re looking for a book which shows you how to invest in REITS and how to analyze the figures of a REIT, this isn’t the book.

I also was hoping to find information on Mortgage REITS. There was only a paragraph or two on the subject — certainly not enough information on this topic.

This book is geared more toward the analyst or someone with a tremendous amount of experience in REITS. It assumes you have a good background in REIT investing. And it certainly does not cover the entire field of REITS.

So it depends upon your needs as to whether or not this book would be a good addition to your investing library. I personally got three bits of information out of it that were worth the cost of the book. But I could have probably gotten the information elsewhere free.

Customer Review: Great Survey Of The REIT World
This book provided a great overview of the REIT industry. As an analyst, I found the summary data at the end of each chapter most useful. I also liked the interviews with the real estate titans, such as Sam Zell, they added a practical dimension to the “hard data” in the book. I picked-up some good practical insights from the interviews. It’s a substantial but easy to read book.
