Hi all!
I've been wondering: In addition to my investments into MSCI World ETF and other ETFs (Emerging Markets, EU Government and EU Corporate Bonds) on a monthly basis, I would really like to invest in real estate.
Given my current financial situation, I cannot buy a house or commercial real estate without financing almost 100%. I mean, I probably could, but I choose not to, because I prefer to save up enough money first. I've researched a bit online, and I've found ETFs like iShares Developed Markets Property Yield (IE00B1FZS350) or SPRD Dow Jones Global Real Estate (IE00B8GF1M35), and from my understanding, they are designed to enable investors to invest into companies from the real estate sector, as a proxy for investments into actual houses or commercial units. So the way I see it, it fits my needs, because (1.) real estate sector, (2.) monthly investments possible, (3.) diversification, meaning not investing into one single house.
I'd like to hear your thoughts about these kind of ETFs. Do you think they're worth investing in as an addition for the portfolio? Or not?
Thanks a bunch!
PS: I'm 30 years old and living in Germany, if that matters...
