12 Best REITs With Solid Fundamentals To Finance Profitable Growth

Owning such things as office buildings and self-storage facilities, real estate investment trusts rake in rents and must pay at least 90 percent of their taxable income to shareholders. 

As long as they can keep raising rents and dividend payments, the stocks should fare well.

This is in my view the best way to discover stocks with potential for profitable growth in the future.
