Wheeler Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ: WHLRD) is a real estate investment trust that specializes in the acquisition, ownership and management of single-tenant retail properties under long-term net leases. The company focuses on properties designed to generate stable, predictable income streams by transferring most property-level expenses—including taxes, insurance and maintenance—to its tenants.
The Trust’s portfolio comprises over 200 retail assets leased to a diversified mix of grocery stores, pharmacies, convenience concepts, fitness centers and other service-oriented operators. Each property is typically located on high-traffic corridors or in neighborhood shopping centers, with leases structured to provide scheduled rent escalations and tenant credit protections.
Wheeler Real Estate Investment Trust primarily targets markets in the Southeastern United States and along the Gulf Coast, often selecting sites near military installations and major transportation routes. This geographic focus allows the company to capitalize on consistent demographic growth, strong consumer spending patterns and stable employment bases.
Organized as a REIT under U.S. federal tax laws, the company is externally managed by Wheeler Real Estate Advisors, a team of professionals with extensive experience in retail leasing, portfolio management and capital markets. Through its net-lease strategy and disciplined approach to asset selection, the Trust aims to deliver reliable cash flow and long-term shareholder value.
