"With an expense ratio of 0.13%, a yield of about 3.7%, and 154 holdings, including a great deal of real estate investment trusts (REITs), the Vanguard Real Estate ETF ( NYSEARCA: VNQ) is a safe, long-term real estate opportunity. Making it even more attractive is the recovery in commercial real estate. According to analysts at Deloitte, the CRE market is showing signs of recovery in 2025, with some predicting a generational opportunity, as noted in Deloitte's 2025 Commercial Real Estate Outlook."
"Some of the ETF's top holdings include Welltower, Prologis, American Tower Corp., Equinix, Digital Realty Trust, and Simon Property Group. Plus, it just paid a dividend of just over 87 cents on September 26. Before that, it paid a dividend of just over 86 cents per share on June 30. Since bottoming out at around $76 in April, the VNQ ETF is now up to $90.18. From here, we'd like to see the ETF rally back to $95 initially."
