Where to buy them
To hold these as real shares you need a stockbroker rather than a CFD provider. If you only want exposure to the price movement, a share CFD does that with leverage — and without ownership.

Frequently asked questions
How many Real Estate stocks are in this list?
5, drawn from our US exchange-listed universe and spread across 1 sector. 5 of them pay a dividend.
Is this a list of Real Estate stocks to buy?
No. It is a screen — a defined, reproducible filter over a stated universe. A screen tells you which companies share a characteristic; it says nothing about whether the price you would pay today is a sensible one. Nothing here is investment advice.
What is the main risk with Real Estate stocks?
Sector concentration removes the diversification that made the index work. A single Real Estate shock hits every holding in this list at the same time.
How do I actually buy these from outside the US?
You need a broker that accepts your country of residence and gives you access to US exchanges. To own the shares outright, that usually means an international stockbroker plus a W-8BEN form to claim your treaty rate on dividend withholding.
