My current REIT allocation is 1.13%. I'd like this percentage to be higher eventually, maybe up to 5%, but only if they were in a tax advantaged account.
I don't know enough about REITS to go out and pick my own so instead I own them through index funds. The problem with this is that the index funds have a much lower dividend yield.
I also do not like the fact that most REITS pay a portion of their distributions via ROC but the index funds, at least the few I own, do not do this.
