Place the chicken on direct heat to finish cooking through. This makes the skin extra crispy. At about 160 degrees F the chicken is finished. Remove chicken from the grill and let rest 5 to 10 minutes. The internal temperature will rise about 5 degrees while resting.
REITs are like mutual funds for real estate. They've been around since 1960. Like mutual funds, REITs do not pay a corporate level of tax as long as they distribute at least 90% of their income to their shareholders before the end of their year. REITs paid out approximately $34 billion in âdividendsâ in 2013. The average REIT yield is over 3.5%.
Investing In REITs. Taxes To qualify as a REIT with the IRS, a real estate company must agree to pay out at least 90% of its taxable profit in dividends (and fulfill additional but less important requirements). By having REIT status, a company avoids corporate income tax. A regular corporation makes a profit and pays taxes on its entire profit and then decides how to allocate its after-tax profits between dividends and reinvestment; a REIT simply distributes all or almost all of its profits and gets to skip the taxation.
