Income Investors Have a New REIT to Consider
Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) Apartment Income REIT Corp. (NYSE: AIRC), or AIR, recently made its public market debut following its separation from fellow residential REIT Apartment and Investment Management (NYSE: AIV), or Aimco. The REITs decided to go their separate ways to concentrate on one aspect of the former combined business model. AIR would focus on owning a diversified portfolio of cash-flowing apartment communities to support a steady dividend, while Aimco would concentrate on developing and redeveloping apartment communities.
