If you need a complete list of all REIT ETFs, here it is. REIT ETF prices and yields update daily, and the list includes expense ratios. Links to the latest news for each ETF can be found in the right-hand column.

This REIT ETF directory is also a good place to start if you want to short commercial real estate. Be cautious shorting these ETFs however, as commercial real estate is notoriously cyclical. Since hitting their lows in March of 2009, many of these ETFs experienced strong positive returns for the year, while SRS was down 90%.

For risk-tolerant investors, Direxion recently launched a brand new pair of REIT ETFs, DRN and DRV, which provide broad, leveraged exposure to the MSCI U.S. REIT Index. DRN will seek to provide 300% long exposure to the index, while DRV will provide 3x inverse (short) exposure to the same index. Each comes complete with an expense ratio of 0.95%.

Note that exposure to specific property types can be obtained through FIO (Industrial/Office REITs), REM (Mortgage REITs) REZ (Residential REITs) and RTL (Retail REITs):

Note: I have not included (DRW), (IYR), (SRS), (URE), or (WPS) in this list, as neither is technically a REIT ETF. These ETFs cast a slightly wider net and include real estate services firms and real estate operating companies that are not organized as REITs.

Two other interesting tools to make the housing/real estate play began trading in mid-2009: The MacroShares Major Metro Housing Down ETF (NYSEArca: DMM); with 1.25% annual fees, and The MacroShares Major Metro Housing Up ETF (NYSEArca: UMM); also with 1.25% annual fees.

Investors should be also aware of the PowerShares Dynamic Building & Construction Portfolio ETF (AMEX: PKB), which contains mostly firms serving the housing industry. No actual builders are included.

One caveat: REIT ETFs don’t necessarily have the same tax efficiency benefit as other ETFs. The reason is that the underlying REITs pay out capital gains distributions which then must flow through to the ETF investor. For that reason, check into when the capital gains get distributed and check with your tax advisor before investing. If you’d rather not play an index, you can buy individual REITs focused on specific property sectors:
