Most Mortgage REITs have portfolios made up principally of mortgages insured by the federal agencies Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae. They typically borrow at low rates and lend in the mortgage markets at higher rates, usually by buying mortgage-backed securities. By purchasing bonds guaranteed by the government, analysts argue these companies take on no risk of default, with the principle concern being an interest rate risk. The good news for REIT investors is that The Fed last week announced that it would hold its benchmark interest rate near zero for at least through mid-2013, replacing an earlier promise to keep it there for "an extended period."
Meanwhile continued housing market weakness has buoyed apartment occupancy rates and stabilized rental fees to the benefit of the residential real estate investment trust industry. High unemployment has also led many homeowners to rent helping to reduce vacancies.
