5 Value Stocks In The Real Estate Sector

What is a Value Stock?

A value stock is traditionally defined in terms of how investors in the marketplace are valuing that company's future growth prospects. Low P/E multiples are good base indicators that the company is undervalued and can most likely be labelled as a value stock.

Benzinga Insights has compiled a list of value stocks in the real estate sector that may be worth watching:

  3. AG Mortgage Investment MITT - P/E: 1.29
  4. NexPoint Real Estate NREF - P/E: 5.11
  5. Redwood Trust RWT - P/E: 3.09

Tremont Mortgage has reported Q1 earnings per share at 0.27, which has decreased by 3.57% compared to Q4, which was 0.28. Tremont Mortgage does not have a dividend yield, which investors should be aware of when considering holding onto such a stock.

Western Asset Mortgage has reported Q1 earnings per share at 0.1, which has decreased by 16.67% compared to Q4, which was 0.12. The company's most recent dividend yield sits at 7.1%, which has decreased by 0.04% from 7.14% last quarter.
