GLOSSARY

Property income distribution (PID)

IN PLAIN ENGLISH

The payout a UK REIT makes from its tax-exempt property profits, taxed as property income.

WHERE YOU MEET IT

Recorded as an ordinary dividend, at the declared amount per share.

WATCH OUT FOR

Outside an ISA or pension, tax is usually taken off first, so the cash you get can be less than the app shows.
