what is a real estate investment trust

If anyone asks me What Is A Real Estate Investment Trust, I will give a simple answer that it is an investment medium to investment in real estate. There are 3 kinds of real estate funds which include equity funds, mortgage funds and hybrid funds. An equity fund buys properties and generates income from rent, a mortgage fund lends out money to home buyers and a hybrid fund is a mixture of the two. If you are interested you can choose from any of the three options.
