What drives this industry
Retail REIT quality varies enormously by tenant credit + lease structure. Realty Income (triple-net + investment-grade tenants) is the quality benchmark: its monthly dividend has compounded for 30+ years with annual increases. Avoid mall REITs unless they have the highest-quality A-class properties + diversified anchor tenants.
