Kite Realty Group Trust (KRG)

Kite Realty Group offers value with a 4.9% dividend yield, strong leasing momentum, and exposure to high-quality, grocery-anchored retail assets. KRG's fundamentals remain robust, with record-high rents, a significant SNO pipeline, and Sun Belt expansion through joint ventures supporting future FFO growth. Despite anchor tenant bankruptcies, KRG has recaptured most spaces, integrated RPAI assets, and benefited from historically low new retail supply.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Sept. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kite Realty Group (NYSE: KRG) announced today that it will present at the 2025 BofA Securities Global Real Estate Conference on Thursday, September 11, 2024, at 9:35am ET. The presentation information is as follows:

Shopping center REITs are undervalued, with record-low vacancies, robust rental growth, and limited new supply driving a multi-year runway for outsized returns. Leasing activity has exceeded expectations, with higher rents, lower costs, and better tenant quality replacing bankrupt retailers, supporting stronger earnings growth. Public shopping center REITs trade at a significant discount to private market values and replacement costs, despite improved fundamentals and institutional capital interest.

M&A activity in REITs is accelerating due to deep discounts to NAV, strong property fundamentals, and abundant capital from PE and large REITs. High-performing, discounted REITs are prime buyout targets, especially in industrial, shopping center, and multifamily sectors where transaction volumes are rising. To capture buyout upside, I focus on large NAV discounts, high-quality properties, and special situations offering synergy or enhanced value to buyers.

REITs are still heavily discounted. But potentially not for much longer. The anticipated rate cuts could lead to an epic recovery, and investors who position themselves early could enjoy significant upside.

I used to be a rental property investor. But soon after, I realized REITs were far better investments. I explain why I stopped buying rentals to buy REIT instead.

Not all REITs are worth buying. Some of the most popular REITs are also the least attractive. I highlight one very overrated REIT and a better alternative.

Active REIT investing beats passive REIT investing. REIT ETFs suffer from many flaws that hurt performance. I explain all the reasons why I don't buy REIT ETFs.

Kite Realty Group is a solid REIT with strong occupancy, attractive leasing spreads, and a healthy balance sheet, operating in Sun Belt markets. Dividend yield is decent at 4.7%, but lower than historical levels; the main appeal is income, not capital appreciation, given limited growth prospects. Potential upside exists from interest rate cuts, which would lower debt costs and support tenant demand, but the current valuation already reflects most positives.

The REIT market keeps evolving very rapidly. My favorite REITs to buy right now are in the retail and industrial property sectors. I highlight 3 Top Picks for July 2025.
