The operation modes of real estate investment funds are generally divided into open-end funds and closed-end funds. Open-end funds can be bought and sold at any time, and investors' funds can enter and leave the fund at any time. Closed-end funds have a fixed raising period and duration, and investors can only purchase or redeem fund shares within a specific period. According to different investment strategies, real estate investment funds can be further divided into core funds, value-added funds and opportunistic funds.
Core fund refers to the fund that invests in high-quality and stable real estate projects with stable rental income as the main goal. This kind of fund is characterized by low risk and is suitable for investors who have requirements for stable income. Value-added funds focus on improving the value of real estate projects through transformation, development and upgrading, with value-added income as the main goal. This kind of fund is characterized by relatively high risk, but it also has great potential. Opportunistic funds mainly pursue real estate projects with small investment scale and high returns, with relatively high risks and returns.

The fund shares purchased by investors represent the proportion of investors' rights and interests in the fund. When the fund investment income increases, investors can get corresponding dividends or capital gains through the value-added fund shares.

Investors need to choose according to their risk tolerance and investment objectives.
