3 Great Stocks for Your Roth IRA
Real estate investment trusts, or REITs, are especially good Roth IRA investments. Because of their structure, REIT profits are not taxed on the corporate level, which is a big reason REITs tend to pay higher-than-average dividends. The downside is that REIT distributions usually don't meet the definition of "qualified" dividends and are therefore taxed as ordinary income. A tax-advantaged account such as a Roth IRA solves this problem.
You can find excellent REITs that specialize in many different types of commercial real estate -- apartment buildings, offices, shopping malls, hospitals, and warehouse properties are just a few examples. Here's some information about three rock-solid REITs with lots of growth potential that can take full advantage of your Roth IRA's tax benefits, without excessive risk.
