Overview

The iShares Residential and Multisector Real Estate ETF (REZ) operates within the Real Estate category, which ETFValuer tracks 11 funds in total. Issued by iShares, the fund holds $875 million in assets under management and trades at a price of $97.95. It currently holds an overall rank of #306 out of 458 tracked ETFs across all categories and has received an ETFValuer grade of C with a score of 56.2 out of 100. Investors in this fund face an expense ratio of 0.48% while receiving a dividend yield of 1.99%. The combination of a mid-tier rank and a moderate asset base suggests a specific level of investor adoption relative to the broader universe of 458 funds. These metrics collectively define the fund's standing as a mid-sized option within its specific sector classification.

Over the short term, the fund posted a 1-day return of +0.45% followed by a slight 1-week decline of -0.17%. Momentum accelerated significantly over the subsequent months, with a 1-month return of +6.82% and a 3-month gain of +14.15%. This upward trajectory continued into the half-year mark with a +15.64% return, while year-to-date performance reached +19.13%. The 1-year return stands at +18.30%, indicating a slight deceleration compared to the 6-month and YTD figures. Extending the view to a 3-year horizon, the fund has generated a cumulative return of +44.23%. This pattern demonstrates a strong multi-month performance trend that has sustained growth over the longer three-year period.

The fund carries a Moderate volatility label and a beta of 0.83, suggesting price movements that are generally less sensitive than the broader market. A Sharpe ratio of 0.85 indicates the return generated per unit of risk taken over the measured period. Despite the moderate volatility classification, the fund experienced a maximum drawdown of -17.61% during the tracked timeframe. This combination of a beta below 1.0 and a moderate volatility label implies the fund typically experiences smaller swings than the market average. However, the -17.61% drawdown highlights that significant downside periods have occurred despite the lower beta. The Sharpe ratio of 0.85 reflects the efficiency of returns relative to the total risk exposure including these drawdowns.

REZ Liquidity, Domicile & Tax Treatment

Liquidity: Quoted bid/ask spread is 11.40% and average daily volume is 35K/day. Tighter spreads and higher volume mean lower round-trip trading costs; this is a live-market snapshot and can widen during volatile sessions. AUM of $875M provides ample scale, supporting tight spreads and issuer commitment to keep the fund open.

Domicile & tax treatment: REZ is a US-domiciled, SEC-registered ('40 Act) exchange-traded fund. Dividends and capital gains distributions are reported to US investors on Form 1099-DIV, and the fund is not subject to the PFIC reporting or UCITS-specific rules that apply to Irish- or Luxembourg-domiciled funds. Non-US investors should note that US-domiciled ETFs are generally subject to 30% US withholding tax on dividends (unless reduced by treaty) and to US estate tax exposure on the position — Irish-domiciled UCITS ETFs tracking the same index often avoid both, which is why non-US residents frequently prefer the UCITS equivalent where one exists. This is general information, not tax advice — consult a tax professional for your situation.
