Xtrackers International Real Estate ETF offers a lower-cost, higher-yield way to add international property exposure compared to State Street SPDR Dow Jones Global Real Estate ETF. HAUZ charges an expense ratio of 0.10%, one-fifth of RWO's 0.50%, and yields 3.60% versus RWO's 3.20%. While RWO holds roughly half its portfolio in U.S. real estate, HAUZ focuses entirely on developed and emerging markets outside the United States, making it a more precise tool for investors who already own domestic REITs. RWO's blended global approach delivered a stronger one-year return of 18.80% against HAUZ's 2.50%, but its international component comes at a steep premium. For targeted international diversification, HAUZ is the more efficient vehicle.
State Street CorpArticle compares State Street's RWO ETF unfavorably to Xtrackers' HAUZ, highlighting higher fees and lower yield for RWO.
