The Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) industry has witnessed significant transformation with the surge of data center REITs as a crucial asset class. Demand for hyperscale and edge computing facilities has been propelled by advancements in technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and 5G, supported by industry giants like Digital Realty and Equinix. Office REITs are recovering, facilitated by up-cycling in 2024 because of more significant leasing activity and return-to-office mandates. Strategically placed office spaces in urban cores are seeing increased demand, boosting property valuations and lease renewals, instilling renewed investor confidence in REITs. Through the end of 2025, industry revenue climbed at a CAGR of 0.9% to $243.7 billion, including a 4.4% gain in 2025 alone, when profit will reach 23.5%. The REIT industry has also seen marked consolidation activity. Despite elevated interest rates, publicly traded REITs raised $84.7 billion in 2024, signaling a strong appetite for acquisitions and displaying the benefits of having scope, scale and a robust operating platform. A strong PropTech adoption trend is evident, with AI, IoT and blockchain integrated into property operations to improve efficiency, reduce costs and enhance tenant experiences. This drive toward innovation helps the industry to better navigate economic challenges like elevated interest rates and inflation. Through the end of 2030, the REIT industry is expected to see favorable developments. Interest rates are expected to moderate over the next five years, easing borrowing costs for REITs and positively affecting their acquisitions and development strategies. Demand for healthcare-related properties will strengthen because of an aging US population and healthcare REIT's position as a resilient sector. The importance of data centers as a REIT asset class will gain, driven by the continuous advancements in AI and increased data operation transfers to the cloud. With an environment conducive to mergers and acquisitions, consolidation will continue, creating fewer but more substantial REITs that are better armed to navigate economic uncertainties and capitalize on sector-specific tailwinds. Industry revenue will climb at a CAGR of 1.6% to $264.0 billion through the end of 2030.
