The rise in global interest rates is driving a “great reset” of real estate values. With the ongoing correction in private markets, REITs offer an attractive entry point with valuations at historic lows. In addition, a number of factors favor REITs:

Large differences in valuation between public and private RE markets, while rare, have historically benefited REITs.
REITS have historically outperformed the S&P post-Fed tightening cycles.
REIT sectors are more concentrated in areas with strong sector secular growth, including senior housing, industrials, data centers, and residential/specialty housing.
If the real estate repricing process continues, there will be a wave of consolidation as well-capitalized firms buy attractive properties at steep discounts.
Longer-term, falling rates combined with an imbalance of supply and demand will be bullish for REIT valuations.
