About VRREX
Virtus Duff & Phelps Real Estate Securities Fund Class R6 is an actively managed mutual fund specializing in U.S. real estate securities. This fund targets capital appreciation and income, typically investing at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of real estate investment trusts (REITs) and companies whose revenues are predominantly driven by recurring rental income. The strategy emphasizes high-quality commercial real estate owner/operators, leveraging a disciplined, bottom-up investment process that incorporates both qualitative and quantitative analysis. The portfolio is notable for its focus on stability and growth potential, seeking the steady cash flows provided by contractual rental agreements. It is managed by an experienced team at Duff & Phelps Investment Management, which has a long track record in listed real assets. With a diversified mix of holdings—often including leading REITs such as Prologis, Welltower, and AvalonBay Communities—the fund aims to broaden portfolio diversification by offering exposure to real estate, an asset class historically exhibiting lower correlation to traditional stocks and bonds. The Class R6 shares are designed for retirement plans and institutional investors, featuring a competitive expense ratio and an open status to new investments.
