The consolidation of REITs through mergers and acquisitions
Article Abstract:
The pace of real estate investment trust (REIT) initial public offerings has slowed, and REIT returns have become standardized, creating a substantial potential for REIT acquisition and merger activity. Institutional property owners' divestments of undesirable properties into REITs will accelerate REIT market consolidation. REITs will eventually face standard market conditions and, therefore, more intense scrutiny by investors.
