Morningstar’s Take
by David Kathman, CFA 07-17-15
T. Rowe Price Real Estate has long been a top choice
for fund investors seeking real estate exposure,
earning it a Morningstar Analyst Rating of Gold. It has
one of the most consistently solid long-term records in
the real estate Morningstar Category; as of July 2015,
its returns ranked near the top of the category since its
1997 inception. While it has seldom been among the
best performers in any given year, it has mostly
avoided big losses and has managed to outpace its
peers in a wide variety of market conditions.
Investors have a single manager to thank for this
impressive record: David Lee, who has been in charge
since the fund launched. He employs a strategy that’s
grounded in fundamentals and focused on the long
term, thus accounting for the portfolio’s low annual
turnover (typically around 10%). Lee and his team look
for REITs and real estate operating companies with
good long-term growth prospects and talented
management teams that are trading below the net
asset value of their underlying real estate assets.
Lee puts a lot of emphasis on the quality of those
underlying assets, with location being a primary
consideration. That’s why the fund has
long been underweight relative to its peers in
health-care REITs, which often feature properties in
unattractive locations. The fund also doesn’t own
data-center REITs, which have been hot recently for
their role in cloud computing, but which tend to have
similarly poor locations.
The lack of health-care REITs hurt the fund in the
brutal 2007-08 downturn, but for the most part, Lee’s
long-term, quality-focused strategy is well-suited to
down markets. The fund ranked in the category’s top
quartile in 2013 and the first half of 2015, two periods
when REITs took a beating in anticipation of rising
interest rates. But it has also performed well in bull
markets for REITs, easily beating its category peers in
2009 and 2010, and edging past them in 2012 and
2014 with gains of 17% and 30%. Recent turnover on
the analyst staff bears watching, but overall this is an
excellent fund, with low expenses adding to its
numerous other pluses.
