Do you invest in a REIT or what type of real estate? I have been thinking of adding something to my portfolio.

Yeah, it's a REIT (SCHH to be specific). I only do 5-10% on it, but I like having a little exposure there since I otherwise have no interest in investment property.

I stopped contributing to the REITs I have (much less than 10%) when the commercial industry looked like shit. I probably should do some research and maybe step back in at some point.
