Retail real estate investment trusts (REITs) specialize in owning and managing retail properties, including shopping centers, malls, strip malls, and other retail spaces. Retail REITs generate revenue through leasing space to retailers, making them a popular choice for investors seeking income.

As is the case with all REITs, retail REITs are required to distribute a significant portion of their income to shareholders in the form of dividends, making them a popular choice for investors seeking income.

Here are two retail REITs with yields up to 5.5% that you could buy today.
