A real estate mutual fund (REMFs) is a mutual fund that invests in the securities
of real estate companies. A large part of these funds goes into investment in
commercial and corporate properties, residential complexes, and agricultural land.
REMFs can invest in property, directly or indirectly via Real Estate Investment
Trusts (REITS)
Real estate funds also allow them to diversify across properties, whereas direct
real estate investments will allow the purchase of one or two properties only.
It is important to note that the overall returns on this investment are dependent
on factors such as real estate market conditions, interest rates, supply and demand
of residential and commercial spaces, and so on.
Flexibility to Invest:
They offer great flexibility to investors as they have the choice to invest
depending on their financial goals and the amount of income available to invest.
Diversification of Portfolio:
These funds allow investors, who have only a limited amount of capital available,
to invest in focused or diversified real estate investments where the investment
required is low. Residential, commercial and rental projects are part of the
investment portfolio.
High Liquidity:
Investment in real estate offers low liquidity since reselling a property might not
be very easy. On the other hand, investing in real estate mutual funds can help you
get higher gains when the market is up, and you can liquidate your funds whenever
you want.
Portfolio Stability:
This fund balances out the high-risk investments in the portfolio. Although the
real estate prices may fluctuate at times, this does not affect real estate funds
to a large extent.
