Real Estate Sector Study
Real estate includes developed or undeveloped land, housing, or commercial projects including commercial markets or multi-story buildings (both commercial or residential), shopping centers, restaurants, hotels, industrial projects, etc.
• The Real Estate Sector contains companies engaged in real estate development and operation. It also includes companies offering real estate related services and Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs).
• REITs: Modeled after mutual funds, the companies registered as REITs with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) can pool capital from numerous investors. This makes it possible for individual investors to earn dividends from real estate investments without having to buy, manage, or finance any properties themselves.
