The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) will acquire apartments through a mutual fund, MutualFundWire reports. The publication’s $1 billion Virtus Real Estate Securities Fund has outperformed the stock market over the past year by betting on apartments that were on the rebound from deflated pricing.

The fund, managed by Geoff Dybas and Frank Haggerty, aims to invest in real estate, where occupancy is expected to rise as the economy recovers. The fund has generated a return of 43% over the past 12 months.
