REITs in 2025 have shown disciplined capital raising, issuing equity mainly when trading at premiums to NAV and capturing low-cost debt opportunistically. Welltower and CareTrust issued equity at significant premiums, signaling management's awareness of overvaluation and maximizing accretion for shareholders. Undervalued REITs like UMH Properties are shifting to share buybacks, recognizing the accretive opportunity at deep discounts to NAV and cheap AFFO multiples.

Interest rates are now declining. Small-cap highly leveraged REITs offer the most upside potential. I present 5 great options to consider in preparation for further rate cuts.

SPG's global acquisitions and $1B in redevelopments boost growth, value creation and property footfall.

INDIANAPOLIS , Oct. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --  Simon ®, a real estate investment trust engaged in the ownership of premier shopping, dining, entertainment and mixed-use destinations, today announced details for its third quarter earnings release and conference call.  Simon's financial and operational results for the quarter ending September 30, 2025, will be released after the market close on November 3, 2025.

Simon Property Group has achieved high occupancy and owns top-tier mall properties, but the stock is trading at an unjustified premium. SPG faces ongoing risks from e-commerce, potential tariff disruptions, and high leverage, with future growth likely to moderate as occupancy nears its peak. The current 4.7% dividend yield and modest FFO growth do not justify SPG's valuation premium over net lease peers like Realty Income.

Seven of the top fifteen Barron's Better Bets (BBB) dividend 'dogs' - including CAG, PFE, VZ, BMY, UDR, KIM, and KEY - are attractively priced for income investors. Analyst forecasts project 17.61% to 34.78% net gains for top-ten BBB dogs by September 2026, with an average estimated gain of 23.96% and lower-than-market volatility. Five of the lowest-priced, highest-yield BBB stocks - CAG, PFE, VZ, BMY, and LYB - are expected to outperform higher-priced peers, offering a 16.89% advantage in projected returns.

Simon Property Group is supported by a fortress balance sheet, high-quality Class A malls, and growing FFO. SPG's occupancy rates and rents continue to grow, with recent acquisitions and an S&P credit rating upgrade strengthening its investment case. FFO guidance for 2025 has been raised, but the stock's price-to-FFO multiple has expanded, leading to a hold rating at current levels.
