MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Centerspace (NYSE: CSR) announced today the tax treatment (Form 1099-DIV) for calendar year 2025 distributions on its common shares of beneficial interest.

REITs (MSCI US REIT Index, RMZ) are positioned for multi-year outperformance, with accelerating AFFO growth, healthy balance sheets, and discounted valuations. Despite underperformance versus the S&P 500, REITs offer a credible path to 13-15% annualized total returns via multiple expansion and a 4% dividend yield. Wide NAV discounts create near-term catalysts, as managements deploy asset sales, cost controls, and strategic alternatives to close valuation gaps.

Centerspace is upgraded to Buy, reflecting improved risk-reward, a solid dividend, and strategic review potential. CSR's latest report showed 4.5% same-store NOI growth and 95.8% occupancy, while keeping a sustainable 4.63% dividend yield and significant buybacks program. The board's ongoing strategic review, including a possible sale or merger, provides downside protection and optionality.

REITs trade at large discounts to their net asset values. They are increasingly becoming targets for activists and private equity. I discuss 3 REITs that are likely buyout targets.
