D

Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the concept of REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts): REITs are companies that own, operate, or finance income-generating real estate. They typically invest in properties such as retail shopping centers, commercial office buildings, and residential apartment complexes.
Recognize the types of assets REITs focus on: REITs are designed to invest in real estate properties that generate rental income or appreciate in value. These assets are usually physical properties rather than equipment or machinery.
Identify the exception in the list: Manufacturing equipment is not a type of real estate asset. It is classified as machinery or equipment used in production processes, which does not fall under the scope of REIT investments.
Compare the options provided: Retail shopping centers, commercial office buildings, and residential apartment complexes are all real estate properties that align with the investment focus of REITs. Manufacturing equipment, however, does not fit this category.
Conclude the reasoning: Since REITs do not invest in manufacturing equipment, it is the correct answer to the question as the exception.
