Since you follow REITs so closely, one question - the few where I hold preferred stock have all organized their debt maturities such that they don't face anything much until 2011 or 2012. Their cash flow more than covers their secured and preferred interest obligations; common share dividends are likely to be paid partly or mostly in stock.

We saw the mortgage REITs get wiped out because they relied on short-term warehouse financing. What is the threat to REITs with no major maturities for a couple of years?
