What Are REITs? Real Estate Investment Trusts| Passive Income Guide

What are REITs? What is a real estate investment trust? Should I invest in a REIT, how can I invest if I even wanted to? If you're interested in investing in real estate but currently don't have the funds for a down payment, your second best alternative is a REIT! Check out this video where I break down REIT basics and why they are great sources of passive income and why they're great for any dividend portfolio!

Hey guys, welcome to the channel I'm a full time Chartered Accountant as well as a part time Real Estate agent with a background in finance, investing, budgeting and of course, real estate.

I've been on a personal mission for the last 10 years to build multiple streams of income, including both passive and active income. On this journey, I've gained a ton of domain knowledge about personal finance and investments that I would love to share.

My goal for this channel is to help you understand basic taxes, personal finance, investing, budgeting and expense management.
