Overview
The Schwab U.S. REIT ETF, identified by the ticker SCHH, operates within the Real Estate category managed by Schwab ETFs. This fund holds an overall rank of #113 among 458 tracked ETFs across all categories and has received an ETFValuer grade of B with a score of 69.7 out of 100. With assets under management totaling $11.1 billion and a current price of $24.76, the fund demonstrates significant investor adoption relative to the 11 other ETFs tracked in its specific category. The expense ratio stands at a competitive 0.07%, while the fund currently offers a dividend yield of 2.79%. These metrics position the ETF as a substantial vehicle within its sector, balancing cost efficiency with income generation potential. The combination of high assets and a mid-tier rank suggests broad market participation despite not holding the top position in its specific peer group.
Over the last trading day, the fund recorded a decline of 0.24%, followed by a weekly gain of 1.48% and a monthly increase of 2.70%. The three-month return accelerated to 7.43%, while the six-month performance showed further strength at 17.75%. Year-to-date returns reached 19.89%, and the one-year return matched the six-month figure at 19.99%. Extending the horizon to three years, the fund has accumulated a total return of 39.16%. This pattern indicates a consistent upward trajectory over the medium to long term, with the one-year performance aligning closely with the six-month gains. The data shows a clear divergence between short-term fluctuations and the sustained growth observed over the longer investment periods.
The fund carries a volatility label of Low and a beta of 0.98, suggesting price movements that are generally in line with or slightly less volatile than the broader market. A Sharpe ratio of 1.07 indicates that the fund has generated a favorable risk-adjusted return relative to its volatility over the measured period. However, the maximum drawdown of -17.75% highlights the potential for significant temporary declines during market stress. This combination of a low volatility label and a beta near unity implies the fund tends to move with the market but with dampened intensity. The Sharpe ratio suggests that despite the potential for a drawdown of nearly 18%, the overall return profile has compensated investors adequately for the risk taken. Investors should note that while the fund is categorized as low volatility, the historical maximum loss remains a material consideration for risk assessment.

SCHH Liquidity, Domicile & Tax Treatment
Liquidity: Quoted bid/ask spread is 0.97% and average daily volume is 5.9M/day. Tighter spreads and higher volume mean lower round-trip trading costs; this is a live-market snapshot and can widen during volatile sessions. AUM of $11.1B provides ample scale, supporting tight spreads and issuer commitment to keep the fund open.
Domicile & tax treatment: SCHH is a US-domiciled, SEC-registered ('40 Act) exchange-traded fund. Dividends and capital gains distributions are reported to US investors on Form 1099-DIV, and the fund is not subject to the PFIC reporting or UCITS-specific rules that apply to Irish- or Luxembourg-domiciled funds. Non-US investors should note that US-domiciled ETFs are generally subject to 30% US withholding tax on dividends (unless reduced by treaty) and to US estate tax exposure on the position — Irish-domiciled UCITS ETFs tracking the same index often avoid both, which is why non-US residents frequently prefer the UCITS equivalent where one exists. This is general information, not tax advice — consult a tax professional for your situation.
