2CHYP is our high-yield REIT portfolio containing 15-20 stocks at any given time. Mispricing is common among REITs and serves as a means of capturing excess value. Current opportunities include mispriced REIT preferreds like Pebblebrook Preferred H and undervalued single-family rental REITs such as Invitation Homes.

REITs are poised for 6-7% earnings growth in coming years, outpacing the historical 3-4% average, with multiple sectors showing accelerating fundamentals. Shopping centers, healthcare (notably senior housing), and data centers are standout sectors, benefiting from robust private market demand, supply constraints, and AI-driven tailwinds. Office REITs see improving leasing, especially from AI-related demand, while quality bifurcation widens; overweight positions in BXP and CUZ reflect this thesis.
