[edit] History
The history section appears essentially verbatim on this page. Not sure who copied who. There is a reference in the article for the first paragraph of the history section, but I can't find any of the information on the linked page. Also, the history section itself is entirely US related. Probably it should be renamed "History of REITs in the US" (or similar) or, if REITs originated in the US, then the text could be edited to reflect that. I'd change it, but I don't know much about this subject and the whole citing of sources issues makes this a big mess. Sewebster 19:29, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
- I took it all out. Good catch. Probably both were copied from investinginreitsDOTcom -THB 20:08, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

- I think you mean investinreits.com, but I couldn't find the information there. I moved the remainder of the history section to the bottom of the US reit section since the information wasn't particularly historical. Hopefully we can re-add a history section when we find a good source. Sewebster 01:24, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
