REITS, How to Navigate the 2009 Credit Crunch, & Today's Economic Realities
** Discounts apply for early registration. See information below to register in this event. ** Summary: The rules governing real estate investments trusts or REITS have changed considerably over the past year, following the American Housing Rescue and Foreclosure Prevention Act of 2008 (also known as the Housing Act). A thorough understanding of these provisions can, in turn, positively impact your clientsÂ’ overall investment picture and bottomline success. In response to the Housing Act, The Knowledge Congress is assembling a panel of industry experts and regulators for a two-hour LIVE webcast. The instructive webcast will cover new amendments affecting the REIT gross income tests (including issues of foreign currency gain, interest rate changes, currency fluctuations, and qualifying income), asset tests, healthcare REITS and the issue of qualified lodging facilities, effective dates and more.
