πŸ‘ Worth It

Written by a REIT investor with roughly 40 years in the game, this is the real reference book on the topic, not just another beginner primer. It teaches you to actually read a REIT's financial statements in plain language, and while a few stretches run wordy, it earns its reputation as the go-to guide for anyone building individual REIT positions.
