Healthcare REITs

Healthcare REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts) are investment companies that own and operate properties used for healthcare services, such as hospitals, nursing homes, medical offices, and assisted living facilities. Investors buy shares in these REITs to earn income from the rent paid by healthcare providers. They offer a way to invest in the healthcare sector without directly managing the properties. Healthcare REITs can provide regular, potentially steady income and diversification within a real estate portfolio, with returns influenced by healthcare industry trends, occupancy rates, and rent agreements.
