Don't fall for a REIT takes advantage of its shareholders. I would sell these REITs asap. Global Net Lease (GNL) and Industrial Logistics Properties Trust (ILPT) are two examples. Unlike a good REIT like Realty Income (O), these REITs are externally managed and suffer significant conflicts of interest. These are NOT among the best REITs to buy, they are among the top 5 REITs to sell.

The REIT management structure matters. Some REITs are internally managed and others are externally managed. To give you a few examples: Medical Properties Trust (MPW) is internally managed because it hires its management as employees of the REIT. But Global Net Lease (GNL) is externally managed as it outsources the management to an outside asset management firm. The external management structure creates significant conflicts of interest as it incentivizes the REIT to issue a lot of shares, often at dilutive prices, to grow the portfolio as large as possible. It hurts shareholders but leads to higher fees for the manager. It is not necessarily illegal and so calling it a scam may be a stretch, but it hurts shareholders.
