What's the difference beween REITs (real estate investment trusts) & real estate development & management co.?

Or is there a difference at all?

And which one is better if your trying to start one?

a REIT is publicly traded and strives for profits and dividends for its stockholders.
a real estate mgmt company may or may not own properties - its function is 3rd party property management. the emphasis on the bottom line is not as great.

Reit is a trust by definition, a shell that passes on income to shareholders without paying tax. A developer/manager is a regular company. Reits have been great investments on a total return basis.
