Smart investors are always on the lookout for an investment class that will produce market-beating gains over the course of the year.

That's why we're showing you the 3 best REITs to buy in 2019.

3 Best REITs to BuyYou see, real estate investment trusts (REITs) have outpaced returns from the stock market for more than 35 years.

Since 1980, REITs have produced annualized returns of 11.61%.

In the same time, the S&P 500 has managed to produce an annual average return of just 8.39%.

Looking at these numbers, it's clear that REITs have a greater chance of rewarding shareholders.

Critically, REITs are likely to provide the kind of stability that will protect your returns as markets grow increasingly volatile in 2019.

But with thousands of REITs on the market, finding the best REITs to buy can be a challenge.

Fortunately, we've found three top REITs to buy in 2019 to grow your wealth and protect your returns...

Best REITs to Buy in 2019, No. 3: Apartment Investment and Management Co.

Interest rates have jumped nearly a full percentage point over the last year, rocking stocks and sending major indexes into the red.

However, the jump has been good news for rent-based REITs.

Higher interest rates translate to higher rates on mortgages. This decreases the affordability of homes, pushing more people to rent their homes rather than buy.

This means more people will be looking to rent, increasing revenue for rental property management companies.

One of the largest apartment REITs is Apartment Investment and Management Co. (NYSE: AIV). It covers over 130 communities across 17 U.S. states.

Covering 17 U.S. states gives AVI a diversified portfolio that can protect the company from falling property rates in different areas of the nation.

Another reason this is one of the best REITs right now is that it also gives investors a dividend yield of over 3%.

A 3% return beats 2019 forecasts for the S&P 500 given by Bank of American (NYSE: BAC) and Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS). Both banks have stated that S&P 500 returns will be stagnant this year.

As a result, a return like this is not only a safe haven for your wealth - but it's also rare.

Plus, with a VQScore of 4, shares of AIV could surge this year too.

However, our next REIT has even better returns during this volatile market...

Best REITs to Buy in 2019, No. 2: Sunstone Hotel Investors Inc.

Even when a market is tumbling, there are safe and even profitable places to invest. You just have to know where to look.

Despite growing economic uncertainty, the American job market remains historically tight, reaching the lowest levels of unemployment in 40 years.

As a result, consumers are confident, employed, and have greater amounts of discretionary spending.

And one of the main things Americans are spending money on is travel. In fact, the 2018 holiday travel season was the nation's busiest since 2004.

Because of this, it will pay off handsomely to take a close look at one of the best hotel REITs, which is Sunstone Hotel Investors Inc. (NYSE: SHO).

This mid-cap investment holds major hotel brands such as Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt, with more than 10,000 rooms and 22 hotels under its umbrella.

With the labor market showing no signs contracting, travel spending is likely to remain strong in 2019 - ensuring that SHO will deliver investors strong returns in the months ahead.

While we can lock in strong profits from travel spending and rising interest rates, our top REIT is on track to make significant gains this year.

In fact, profits could jump as much as 25% in the first half of 2019...
