FIBRAs: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to invest in real estate portfolios through the Mexican stock market without the need to buy physical property.
FIBRAs are investment vehicles that allow you to own a share of large-scale real estate portfolios through the stock market. They provide a way to participate in the profits of major properties without the need to manage physical buildings yourself.
Who it's for
This is designed for investors who want exposure to the real estate market but do not wish to buy, manage, or maintain physical properties themselves.
What you get
You receive dividends generated from a portfolio of commercial, industrial, or residential real estate assets.
What it costs you
To participate, you will need to pay a brokerage commission to the financial institution that handles your trades.
The catch to know
The way distributions are treated for tax purposes can be complex, so it is important to understand your specific tax obligations.
How to apply
- Open a brokerage account through a regulated financial institution.
- Search for the specific FIBRAs available on the stock exchange.
- Decide on the amount you wish to invest.
- Place your buy order through your broker's platform.
