Given the meltdown in the housing/financials sector, most REITs are at 52 week lows. Anyone consider buying into any of them (and, if so, which ones)?

Considering how long the buildup in housing and real estate lasted, it may be too early yet to get in.

every month i have a certain amount of money that is invested into some mutual funds, and a reit fund is one of them.

I bought some a couple of weeks ago, when they were down about 6%. That just happened to be when I had the money to invest. Naturally, I'm underwater right now, but since I bought planning to hold for 20+ years, I'm not too concerned. If it was money I needed anytime soon it would be in a money market fund. If I had more money to put into the market right now, some of it would be directed at REITs.
