real estate index ?

  1. Is there such thing as a real estate index? better a global real estate index or one that would include the US, UK, SA and Australia markets?
     
  2. No, but you can watch the CRB very strongly correlated because of their tendency to react to inflation and interest rates.
     
  3. Check out the IYR & ICF
     
  4. thanks Trendfader those look like a great way to play the real estate collapse
    well whenever that happens , nice drop last week though, could this be the start of it ?
     
  5. For the US residential market, try OFHEO.
     
  6. ( rwr + vnq ) 2 more reit ETF's
