Three Oversold REITs With Strong FundamentalsBy Dan Schmidt. First Published: 3/30/2026. 
Key Points
- Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are often popular investments during turbulent times because they return so much capital to shareholders through dividends and buybacks.
- In the AI-powered surge over the last few years, REITs have become a forgotten asset class and have lagged the market.
- Now that volatility has returned, REITs could be an attractive investment, including these three with fundamental tailwinds.

There was a time when the biggest worry in markets was commercial real estate (CRE), especially for companies that own offices and workplaces where most staff now work from home. You likely won’t see CRE dominating headlines anymore, but that’s not necessarily because conditions have improved—there’s still a lot going on. Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) have been dragged down with the rest of the market over the last month, and commercial assets continue to concern investors. However, a few REITs are showing oversold signals on certain technical indicators, and we've identified three that also have fundamental tailwinds. Why REITs Could Be Primed for Strong Growth in 2026REITs have been among the most uninspiring asset classes over the last five years, with little appreciation beyond dividends. The Vanguard Real Estate ETF (NYSEARCA: VNQ), one of the largest broad-based REIT ETFs with more than $33 billion in assets, has lost 5.5% over the past five years, with much of that decline occurring in the last month (down 8%). Until the Iran war broke out, many REIT investors were just barely above water, relying primarily on dividends for returns.

Still, there are reasons to be cautiously optimistic about REITs in 2026. Many funds have reached markedly oversold levels, which technical traders will be watching for a rebound. And despite an interest-rate environment that now leans toward "higher for longer," 2026 is expected to be a better year for the sector. JPMorgan Research projects overall growth of about 6% in the key Funds From Operations (FFO) metric for the sector this year. FFO measures a fund’s cash flow by adding amortization and depreciation to net income and then subtracting gains from non-recurring property sales. It provides a more accurate picture of cash flow than net income alone and helps gauge the sustainability of dividends. REITs tend to be a conservative sector, so sustainable dividend growth often matters more to investors than short-term stock gains. These 3 REITs Have Strong Fundamentals and Flashing Oversold SignalsWhen screening for oversold stocks, it's important to use multiple technical indicators to confirm signals. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is popular for its simple heuristics and reliability, but it should not be used in isolation. For the three names below, we pair the RSI with other tools such as the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator. Simon Property Group: Stabilized By Affluent Clientele BaseSimon Property Group Inc. (NYSE: SPG), once known mainly as a mall REIT, has repositioned itself as a “destination” operator targeting affluent customers. While many traditional malls faded, SPG focused on high-end centers and acquired prime retail properties for luxury brands. This strategy is paying off: in Q4 2025, management reported record annual FFO of $4.8 billion ($12.73 per share) and guided 2026 FFO to between $13.00 and $13.25 per share. The company also announced a $2 billion share repurchase (roughly 3% of market cap), with portfolio occupancy above 96% and a 15% year-over-year (YOY) increase in its leasing pipeline. 
Simon’s fundamentals show little sign of distress; the stock’s recent weakness likely reflects the broader market retreat rather than company-specific problems. Shares found support at the 200-day moving average just as the RSI reached oversold levels. If the stock holds above the 200-day MA, it could be an attractive entry point. Rexford Industrial Realty: Opportunities in California Industrial ZonesSouthern California has the largest infill industrial market in the U.S., with more than 1.8 billion square feet. Zoning and regulatory constraints often restrict new supply and create high barriers to entry, which in turn supports rental rates and benefits incumbent owners like Rexford Industrial Realty Inc. (NYSE: REXR), which owns over 400 properties in the region. The stock has underperformed over the past five years, but Rexford is in transition: former COO Laura Clark was named CEO, and the company authorized $500 million in new share buybacks. 
Rexford has a catalyst on April 15, when it reports Q1 2026 earnings, which could halt the stock’s slide. Shares are down about 16% year-to-date, including a roughly 14% drop in the last month. The stock is approaching its April 2025 lows, but the RSI and MACD indicate that downward momentum is slowing. A bullish MACD crossover ahead of the earnings report would be a sign of a potential momentum shift. Vornado Realty Trust: Contrarian Play on New York Real EstateAn investment in Vornado Realty Trust (NYSE: VNO) isn’t for the faint of heart. New York CRE was hit hard during the COVID-19 pandemic and has struggled to fully recover. Still, Vornado’s management reported an industry-leading 4.6 million square feet of Manhattan leasing in 2025, with strong momentum in its Penn 1 and Penn 2 districts. Management also disclosed acquisitions of high-end properties on Fifth Avenue and East 54th Street during its Q4 2025 results. It guided 2026 FFO to be in line with 2025, a modest projection that leaves room for upside. 
Vornado’s chart resembles Rexford’s, with signs of a rebound. The RSI has been in oversold territory for much of the past two months and is near spring 2025 lows. Crucially, the MACD has crossed above its signal line, suggesting selling momentum may be stalling and buyers could be returning. |
