Only if you pay very close attention to the composition of the REIT. Anything that is heavily invested in "commercial" property I would be very scared of. Office and retail property is probably not a winner long term with online shopping and hybrid or full on remote working becoming more prevalent.
Holdings in that space are everything when assessing the overall risk vs reward.
