REIT - Office Stocks
REIT - Office: Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. owns the largest revenue base; Postal Realty Trust, Inc. has the fastest current growth.
How has REIT - Office moved against S&P 500?
The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 44% behind S&P 500. Earnings across its companies fell 15% on average over the last four reported quarters. It has been ahead of S&P 500 on a rolling three-month view for 12 weeks running.
RS ↑12w · 13/15 >200d (+1) · 9/15 lead (−1) · EPS 7/15↑
Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 15 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.
Is REIT - Office outperforming S&P 500?
REIT - Office has underperformed S&P 500 by 17.3% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a lead of 5.5%. 7 of 17 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Postal Realty Trust, Inc. is the strongest against the sector itself at +12.6%.
Sector metric: — as of latest available · unclassified · direction unavailable.
The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.
Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.
Bottom line
REIT - Office has underperformed S&P 500 by 17.3% over 52 weeks and 5.5% over 13 weeks. 7 of 17 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 10 of 17 beat the sector itself. Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. leads with income of $2,939 million, based on 9 of 17 comparable companies through Mar 2026.
4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. Financial companies use P/BV÷ROE and asset quality; PEG, industrial OPM and ROCE are excluded. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action
Postal Realty Trust, Inc. has the strongest one-year price move in REIT - Office at +60%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against the S&P 500 at +10.4%. 7 of 17 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 314 weekly closes through 2026-08-04.
Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.
How far ahead of or behind S&P 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS S&P 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.
The same measure taken against REIT - Office itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.
Income Scale & Growth Durability
Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. has the highest Income among the 17 REIT - Office companies compared here, at $2,939 million. Vornado Realty Trust is next at $1,808 million. Postal Realty Trust, Inc. has the highest Income growth at 23.5%, so level and change sit with different companies. Its Income series carries 19 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.
What the numbers say: Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. is the scale leader at $2,939 million, 62.6% ahead of Vornado Realty Trust. Postal Realty Trust, Inc.'s growth is 23.5% from a $100 million base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.
Investor read: Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. is the scale benchmark; Postal Realty Trust, Inc. is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.
This conclusion weakens if: Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.'s growth falls below Postal Realty Trust, Inc.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Profit Scale & Acceleration
Vornado Realty Trust has the highest Net profit among the 17 REIT - Office companies compared here, at $910 million. Empire State Realty OP, L.P. is next at $56 million. The same company also holds the highest Profit growth, at the 100% top of the scoring scale. 9 of 17 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: Vornado Realty Trust leads with $910 million of TTM profit, 16.3× the profit of Empire State Realty OP, L.P.. Vornado Realty Trust shows ≥100% on the scoring scale (287.2% uncapped) growth from a $910 million profit base. Compare the size of the base and persistence before ranking acceleration above profit scale.
Investor read: Vornado Realty Trust sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Funding Base & Its Composition
No company in this REIT - Office comparison reports a funding base figure this section can compare, so the Deposits rank is empty. On Borrowings, BXP, Inc. is highest at $16,358 million, across 17 of 17 companies with a usable reading.
What the numbers say: There is not enough comparable evidence to name a reliable deposits leader.
Investor read: The current leader sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current borrowings signal.

Return On Assets
Vornado Realty Trust has the highest ROA among the 17 REIT - Office companies compared here, at 4.7%. Empire State Realty OP, L.P. is next at 2.1%. Brandywine Realty Trust has the highest ROA change at +1.8 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 17 of 17 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: Vornado Realty Trust leads roa at 4.7%; Brandywine Realty Trust leads roa change at +1.8 percentage points.
Investor read: Vornado Realty Trust sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roa change signal.

Gross NPA — Leaders & Improvers
No company in this REIT - Office comparison reports gross NPA on a comparable basis, so there is nothing to rank here — 0 of 17 companies have a usable current reading. The section is shown rather than removed so an unavailable metric is not mistaken for one that was quietly left out. Filings were read through Jun 2026.
Valuation Against Growth & Quality
Empire State Realty OP, L.P. has the lowest P/BV ÷ ROE among the 17 REIT - Office companies compared here, at 0.11×. Net Lease Office Properties is next at 0.15×. Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. has the lowest P/BV at 0.11×, so level and change sit with different companies.
What the numbers say: Empire State Realty OP, L.P. has the lowest comparable P/BV ÷ ROE at 0.11×, 26.7% below Net Lease Office Properties. Only 11 of 17 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.
Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/bv signal.

What can make this comparison misleading?
This REIT - Office comparison names 6 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 17 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 2 of the 7 ranked sections have fewer than three usable current readings. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.
Keep these limits visible
- A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
- A high ROE can be manufactured with leverage. Read it beside ROA and asset quality.
- The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
- An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
- Banks and lenders are not forced through operating-margin or ROCE comparisons; missing lender-specific fields remain visibly missing.
- Thin comparisons: Funding base, Asset quality have fewer than three usable current readings.
How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 17 REIT - Office companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-08-04. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.
REIT - Office company comparison FAQs
These 21 answers restate the REIT - Office comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 17 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-08-04. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
Is the REIT - Office sector outperforming S&P 500?
REIT - Office has underperformed S&P 500 by 17.3% over 52 weeks and 5.5% over 13 weeks. 7 of 17 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 10 of 17 beat the sector itself.
Which REIT - Office company is largest by income?
Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. leads with income of $2,939 million, based on 9 of 17 comparable companies through Mar 2026.
Which REIT - Office company is growing fastest?
Postal Realty Trust, Inc. has the fastest current income growth at 23.5%, across 9 of 17 comparable companies.
Which REIT - Office company has the strongest 4-Factor Sector Score?
Vornado Realty Trust ranks first at 64.5/100 with 64% evidence confidence. The score prioritizes research; it is not a buy recommendation.
Which REIT - Office company has the lowest comparable P/BV-to-ROE?
Empire State Realty OP, L.P. has the lowest comparable P/BV ÷ ROE at 0.11, among 11 of 17 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.
How much history does this REIT - Office comparison include?
The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.
How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?
The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.
Which REIT - Office company is the biggest?
Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month income of $2,939 million, ahead of Vornado Realty Trust at $1,808 million. That covers 9 of 17 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.
Which REIT - Office company makes the most profit?
Vornado Realty Trust earns the most, at $910 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 9 of 17 comparable companies. Vornado Realty Trust has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which REIT - Office company earns the highest return on capital?
Vornado Realty Trust leads on return on assets at 4.7%, across 17 of 17 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which REIT - Office stock is the cheapest?
On price-to-book divided by return on equity — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Empire State Realty OP, L.P. screens cheapest at 0.11×. Only 11 of 17 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Is the REIT - Office sector beating the market?
REIT - Office has underperformed S&P 500 by 17.3% over the last 52 weeks and 5.5% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 7 of 17 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.
Which REIT - Office stock has the strongest price momentum?
Postal Realty Trust, Inc. has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.
Which REIT - Office company scores highest for research priority?
Vornado Realty Trust scores 64.5 out of 100 with 64% evidence confidence, from 22.1 points on growth and earnings, 14.8 on capital efficiency, 9.8 on valuation and 17.8 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.
How many REIT - Office companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?
It compares 17 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, ending Jun 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.
What is the total market cap of the REIT - Office sector?
The 17 REIT - Office companies on this page carry $60,281 million of combined market value. BXP, Inc. is the largest at $12,601 million, about 21% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-08-04.
What is the REIT - Office sector's P/B ratio?
The median price-to-book ratio across the 17 REIT - Office companies on this page is 0.8×, measured on the 17 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-08-04.
How is the REIT - Office sector performing?
7 of the 17 covered REIT - Office companies are beating S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 17.3% behind S&P 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-08-04.
How many REIT - Office stocks are listed in the US?
This comparison covers 17 listed REIT - Office companies in the US, each above the size floor the site applies. The full ranked list is on this page, with reported fundamentals through Jun 2026. Membership is the full industry list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.
Why are some values on this page blank?
A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.
Is this investment advice?
No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
