This is more where I hear about it, these guys get a PWM from Edward Jones to pump all his clients into their PREIT with a share price that doesn't change value and he puts out dividends that are 6%. Which is all nice but if someone wants out they convert their stock at the same price, meaning he gets all the residual value along with crazy acq fees/dispo fees ect.

 

There's shady shit that goes on there. C-suite executives hire their own consulting company to be asset managers. They take their C-suite comp and AM fees along with it. They can get away because ownership is often concentrated among them with a bunch of tiny other investors that cant do anything or don't pay attention (like you said retail investors who dont know whats going on

"Mr. Knott compared the total returns of a Wells Real Estate nontraded office REIT with the publicly traded sector when one of Wells’s trusts went public early last year. Nontraded REITS are required to either liquidate or list their shares on an exchange within a specified period, usually at least seven years. Investors in Wells got no return over the life of the trust, Mr. Knott said, because they paid fees amounting to 16 percent, and the trust paid $175 million to acquire an advisory company made up of its own executives. In the same period, the average total return for traded office REITs was 6 percent, he said."

 

The 6% is distributions as share of NAV. Basically dividend yield. The 8% is total returns. The difference between the two is NAV growth.

You buy in exactly at current NAV.

The real drawback is really high fees and commissions to buy in.

 

A good portion of the open ended funds run by the large asset managers are set up as non traded reits. Think LaSalle, CBREGI, UBS, etc... It makes much more sense tax wise with those long term care funds

Positions in these reits are sometimes even traded between investors when someone or another needs liquidity quickly but the structure to redeem takes some time

 

I've worked and consulted for a few in my past, each raised several billions over multiple years. It's expensive to raise and operate but it brings in capital from mom and pop investors via financial advisors, so capable of raising funds slowly and consistently, very valuable for a REIT making many acquisitions over time.

Blackstone is one of the recent entrants, with the BREIT. Lots of others will probably join.
