2 Cheap REITs That Yield Up to 6.4%

A real estate investment trust (REIT) is a company that owns and operates income-producing real estate. These have proven to be a great source of income for Canadians in recent years. Today, I want to focus on two REITs that look very undervalued as September winds to a close.
