RFI: A Great Real Estate CEF, But Low Yield Compared To Peers And Very Expensive
Cohen & Steers Total Return Realty Fund offers exposure to the real estate sector with an attractive yield.

The Fund's portfolio avoids the troubled commercial office sector, which risk-averse investors should appreciate.
