LONDON, March 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

While residential REITs are expected to benefit from the ongoing recovery in the housing market, commercial REITs are also seeing rising rents and occupancy rates. Mortgage REITs such as American Capital Mortgage Investment Corp. (NASDAQ: MTGE), Anworth Mortgage Asset Corporation (NYSE: ANH), Crexus Investment Corp. (NYSE: CXS), and Capstead Mortgage Corporation (NYSE: CMO), however, are expected to continue to face challenges as mortgage rates are likely to remain low, given the Federal Reserve's commitment to easy monetary policy.
