Bottom line
While it’s possible to turn a profit investing in commercial real estate stocks, keep in mind that — like any investment — commercial real estate stocks are not immune to risk. These stocks are subject to fluctuating conditions — both in the market and in the real estate industry, so carefully vet your picks before you invest. And if you’re new to investing, or if it’s been awhile since you’ve taken a critical look at your investing accounts, compare brokers to make sure you’re getting the best features in your trading account.
