2 Real Estate ETFs With Opposite Strategies: HAUZ Spans the Globe, ICF Bets Big on the U.S.
2026-03-18 10:34:03 ET
Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF ( NYSEMKT:HAUZ) stands out for its lower cost, higher yield, and international diversification, while iShares Select U.S. REIT ETF (NYSEMKT:ICF) maintains a more concentrated U.S. REIT approach with stronger long-term growth.
Both ICF and HAUZ target real estate exposure, but they go about it very differently. ICF focuses exclusively on U.S. real estate investment trusts, while HAUZ casts a much wider net across global developed and emerging markets (excluding the U.S., Pakistan, and Vietnam). This comparison explores cost, performance, risk, liquidity, and portfolio makeup to help clarify which may appeal more for real estate allocation.
