Q » How are real estate investment trusts (REITs) taxed, and how do they generate returns?
17 Oct, 2025
A » Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are taxed as pass-through entities, meaning they avoid corporate income tax if they distribute at least 90% of their taxable income as dividends. Investors are taxed on these dividends, with ordinary income rates applying to non-qualified dividends. REITs generate returns through rental income and capital appreciation of properties. They offer investors a way to earn income and diversify their portfolios with real estate exposure.
