REITs

Looking for Real Estate Investment Trust information?   Here’s some of the TCU databases that provide that information:

MorningStar (only allows 2 users at a time):  Click on the Industries link under the Industries category (see screen shot).  This takes you into an alphabetical listing of industries.  Scroll down until you find the REITS link.   Voila!

Value Line Research Center (only allows 6 users at a time): Left-hand navigation bar- click “Standard Edition”.  Go down to the “Look Up Industry” box and hover your mouse until the entire box turns dark grey and click (see screen shot).  Scroll down the alphabetical industry list until you find the R.E.I.T. link.  

Note: The PDF next to the REIT link provides ValueLine’s overall assessment of that industry.  Once you click the REIT link, you are taken into a listing of companies… Another NOTE- the pdf and html pages next to the each company’s name contain some overlapping but some different info.  It pays to look at both.

Mergent Online (only allows 15 users at a time):  Click the “Enter Mergent Online” tab on the left side.

In the Classification box in the center of the page, select “Prim. NAICS” and enter 531 into the search box.  This basically takes you into a listing of companies in the Real Estate industry.

Let me know if you find any other resources or if I need to add anything else to this entry!
