Webinar

Is a REIT a good idea?

Baker Tilly and Winthrop & Weinstine co-hosted a webinar that provided an overview of real estate investment trust (REIT) fundamentals. The REIT framework allows developers a tax-efficient structure that can drive investor value while providing regular income streams and long-term capital appreciation and diversification. But while REITs have been strong in recent years, the structure may not be the right fit for every organization. This presentation will give insight on whether or not a REIT is an appropriate structure for your business, based on a few different variables.

In this webinar, our presenters discussed important topics to consider such as:

  • Is a REIT is an appropriate structure for you?
  • REIT structure and legal requirements
  • Key considerations and procedures for forming a REIT
  • Advisor and compensation issues
  • Significant collateral issues
