REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts) offer ownership in a real estate portfolio of professionally selected and managed investment properties. A REIT is a company dedicated to owning and, in most cases, operating income-producing real estate. REIT structures can also engage in financing and debt. [1] Other non-traded and direct ‘alternative’ investment opportunities may access other industries, sectors, or unconventional strategies. Direct investments provide access to non-traditional, private equity opportunities – beyond traditional stocks and bonds. 

Publicly traded equities offer immediate liquidity – the ability to be purchased and sold on a daily basis. With that flexibility, buyers and sellers determine the share price, which can also result in share price volatility. Investors that are interested in sacrificing immediate liquidity provided in the traditional equity markets may be interested in direct investments that are not traded and therefore not exposed to the daily volatility of the traditional public markets. [Please be aware that despite the absence of a daily bid/offer on direct investments, the underlying valuation of the assets gets re-priced at specified intervals and may still fluctuate based on determined valuations.] To complement and further diversify a portfolio of liquid securities, an allocation of non-traded investments, including REITs, and other alternative investments may provide additional diversification from traditional stocks and bonds. Non-traded, direct investments should be only considered for your illiquid allocation as there are no immediate markets to redeem shares on a daily basis. As well, an investor may not be suitable who does not have sufficient liquidity or a short time horizon. As with any investment, please be sure to review all the risks and fees associated with
each specific investment.
