iShares UK Property

ETF description

This ETF focuses on investing in UK‑based real estate companies and real estate investment trusts (REITs). These companies are involved in the development, management, and ownership of a range of property types, including commercial, retail, and residential properties. The fund provides exposure to the UK property market, offering the potential for income through dividends paid by these companies, along with the opportunity for growth as property values increase over time.

This ETF may appeal to investors who are looking for a combination of regular income from property‑related investments and the potential for long‑term capital growth in the UK real estate market. Investors interested in real estate as part of their investment strategy but preferring the liquidity of an exchange‑traded fund may find this fund an attractive option.
