Michael, >>They are hot, but the main thing that disturbs me is that they can no longer buy properties well below replacement cost.

Good point. The reits I own have good management teams, but I am going to look at their recent purchases/building projects to see what the costs have been. I used Cappello's (sp) book for evaluating reits when I was purchasing them years ago. Most of them have quadrupled in price and are now giving me over 13% yield on my original investment.
