Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q1
The investment objective of the DFA Real Estate Securities Portfolio (the Portfolio) is to achieve long-term capital appreciation.
The fund uses a market-capitalization-weighted approach to invest in equity securities of real estate companies, including REITs, residential construction firms, and commercial property developers, adjusting positions based on factors such as relative price, profitability, liquidity, and momentum. The fund concentrates more than 25% of its net assets in real estate securities and may exclude or adjust the weight of eligible companies after considering these factors, so its composition may diverge from a simple market-cap-weighted index of the real estate sector.

Net is what a holder pays after the adviser's contractual waiver; gross is before it. A waiver can expire.

Allocation
Asset groups · long / short shown separately, never netted · 2026 Q2
| Stocks | 103.12% |
| Cash & short-term | 5.61% |
| Derivatives | 0.06% |
These positions come to 108.78% of the fund's net assets. This counts only what the fund reported holding — the holdings disclosure covers assets, not liabilities such as borrowings — so it is not expected to reconcile to 100%.
Derivatives are shown at market value, not notional exposure.
Sector allocation
The same holdings as Allocation above, grouped by market sector instead of asset type · as of 2026 Q2
| Real Estate | 90.9% |
| Cash | 5.2% |
| Other | 3.9% |
Government, Securitized and Cash are non-corporate buckets; International is foreign holdings we don’t sector-classify, and Other is the residual (held funds, unresolved names).
Portfolio growth profile
How much of the fund’s stock holdings are in fast-growing companies · as of 2026 Q2
Share of the fund’s equity (by value) in companies whose trailing five-year revenue — or net-income — growth ranks in the top 25% of U.S. public companies. Foreign and newly-listed holdings are excluded, so the figure covers only part of the book. From SEC filings — not investment advice. How we measure this.
