"About 40 REITs have already cut their dividends in the past six months, notes Tom Bohjalian, senior vice president and portfolio manager at Cohen & Steers Inc. Some have suspended their dividends, while others have either trimmed them or opted to pay a portion of them in stock. He says investors looking at REITs with yields north of 15% need to "do a deep dive into the balance sheet" to assess if a company will need to trim or scrap its dividend to meet debt obligations.

Indeed, industry analysts say debt is the biggest threat facing REITs and their dividends in today's seized-up credit markets, and it must be carefully considered before buying a stock."
