"Investors can depend, however, on the trend of rising bond yields limiting capital gains for equity-based income investments."

I will refer you back to the second line of my original post on this thread. 

"Currently, for example, the yield on the REIT index is 5.7 per cent".  This is the return for the index, I can assure you the yield on my REIT investments is much higher than this, and I don't expect much for capital appreciation on REITs, fir me they are a yield play only. 

Also remember this

"Again, this is only a loose estimate and one that’s based on assumptions."

I don't base my investments on assumptions.
