A hybrid REIT combines which of the following two types of REITs?

  1. Mortgage and Healthcare

  2. Retail and Office

  3. Industrial and Residential

  4. Mortgage and Retail

The correct answer is: Mortgage and Healthcare

A hybrid REIT combines two types of REITs that focus on different types of properties, in order to diversify its portfolio and reduce risk. Option A, Mortgage and Healthcare, is the only combination that includes a residential-focused REIT (healthcare) and a mortgage-focused REIT, making it the most likely choice for a hybrid REIT. Option B, Retail and Office, would not be considered a hybrid REIT since both focus on commercial properties. Option C, Industrial and Residential, would not be considered a hybrid REIT for the same reason. Option D, Mortgage and Retail, does not include a residential-focused REIT and therefore would not be considered a hybrid REIT.
