Annual Report

IMPORTANT DISTRIBUTION NOTICE

for Shareholders of the Nuveen Real Estate Income Fund (JRS)

Annual Shareholder Report for the period ending December 31, 2019

The Nuveen Real Estate Income Fund seeks to offer attractive cash flow to its shareholders, by converting the expected long-term total return potential of the Fund’s investments in REITs into regular quarterly distributions. Following is a discussion of the Managed Distribution Policy the Fund uses to achieve this.

The Fund pays quarterly common share distributions that seek to convert the Fund’s expected long-term total return potential into regular cash flow. As a result, the Fund’s regular common share distributions (presently $0.1900 per share) may be derived from a variety of sources, including:

Such distributions are sometimes referred to as “managed distributions.” The Fund seeks to establish a distribution rate that roughly corresponds to the Adviser’s projections of the total return that could reasonably be expected to be generated by the Fund over an extended period of time. The Adviser may consider many factors when making such projections, including, but not limited to, long-term historical returns for the asset classes in which the Fund invests. As portfolio and market conditions change, the distribution amount and distribution rate on the Common Shares under the Fund’s Managed Distribution Policy could change.

When it pays a distribution, the Fund provides holders of its Common Shares a notice of the estimated sources of the Fund’s distributions (i.e., what percentage of the distributions is estimated to constitute ordinary income, short-term capital gains, long-term capital gains, and/or a non-taxable return of capital) on a year-to-date basis. It does this by posting the notice on its website (www.nuveen.com/cef), and by sending it in written form.

You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Fund’s Managed Distribution Policy. The Fund’s actual financial performance will likely vary from month-to-month and from year-to-year, and there may be extended periods when the distribution rate will exceed the Fund’s actual total returns. The Managed Distribution Policy provides that the Board may amend or terminate the Policy at any time without prior notice to Fund shareholders. There are presently no reasonably foreseeable circumstances that might cause the Fund to terminate its Managed Distribution Policy.

Portfolio Managers’ Comments

Nuveen Real Estate Income Fund (JRS)

The Fund’s portfolio is managed by a team of real estate investment professionals at Security Capital Research & Management Incorporated (Security Capital), a wholly-owned subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Company. Anthony R. Manno Jr., Kenneth D. Statz, Kevin W. Bedell and Nathan J. Gear, CFA, lead the team.

On September 3, 2019, Nathan J. Gear, CFA, was added as a portfolio manager on the Nuveen Real Estate Income Fund (JRS).

Here the portfolio management team reviews U. S. economic and financial markets, their management strategy and the performance of the Fund for the twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2019.

What factors affected the U.S. economy and financial markets during the twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2019?

The U.S. economy reached the tenth year of expansion since the previous recession ended in June 2009, marking the longest expansion in U.S. history. In the fourth quarter of 2019, gross domestic product (GDP) grew at an annualized rate of 2.1%, according to the “advance” estimate by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. GDP measures the value of goods and services produced by the nation’s economy less the value of the goods and services used up in production, adjusted for price changes. In the final months of the year, the economy was boosted by moderate consumer spending, along with positive contributions from government spending and trade, which offset weakness in business investment. For 2019 as a whole, U.S. GDP grew 2.3%, a decline from 2.9% in 2018 and the slowest pace since 2016.

Consumer spending, the largest driver of the economy, remained well supported by low unemployment, wage gains and tax cuts. As reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate fell to 3.5% in December 2019 from 3.9% in December 2018 and job gains averaged around 176,000 per month for the past twelve months. As the jobs market has tightened, average hourly earnings grew at an annualized rate of 2.9% in December 2019. However, inflation remained subdued. The Bureau of Labor Statistics said the Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased 2.3% over the twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2019 before seasonal adjustment.

Low mortgage rates and low inventory drove home prices moderately higher in this reporting period, despite declining new home sales and housing starts. The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index, which covers all

Portfolio Managers’ Comments (continued)

nine U.S. census divisions, was up 3.5% year-over-year in November 2019 (most recent data available at the time this report was prepared). The 10-City and 20-City Composites reported year-over-year increases of 2.0% and 2.6%, respectively.

As data pointed to slower momentum in the overall economy, the Federal Reserve (Fed) notably shifted its stance. Although the Fed had indicated in December 2018 that there could be two more rate hikes in 2019, global growth concerns kept the central bank on the sidelines. As expected by the markets, the Fed left rates unchanged throughout the first half of 2019 while speculation increased that the Fed’s next move would be a rate cut. At the July 2019, September 2019 and October 2019 policy committee meetings, the Fed announced a 0.25% cut to its main policy rate. Markets registered disappointment with the Fed’s explanation that the rate cuts were a “mid-cycle adjustment,” rather than a prolonged easing period, and its signal that there would be no additional rate cuts in 2019. Also in the latter half of 2019, the Fed announced it would stop shrinking its bond portfolio sooner than scheduled, as well as began buying short-term Treasury bills to help money markets operate smoothly and maintain short-term borrowing rates at low levels. Fed Chairman Powell emphasized that the Treasury bill purchases were not a form of quantitative easing.

During the twelve-month reporting period, geopolitical news remained a prominent market driver. Tariff and trade policy topped the list of concerns, most prominently the U.S.-China relations. After several rounds of talks, escalating rhetoric from both sides and a series of tariff increases, tensions appeared to ease in the later months of 2019. The U.S. and China signaled their agreement on a partial trade deal, which included rolling back some tariffs, increasing China’s purchases of U.S. agriculture products and the consideration of intellectual property, technology and financial services rights. (Subsequent to the close of the reporting period, the “phase one” deal was signed on January 15, 2020.) While much of the focus remained on the U.S.-China relationship, trade spats between the U.S. and Mexico, the European Union, Brazil and Argentina also arose throughout the period. More than a year after the three countries signed onto the U.S., Mexico and Canada Agreement (USMCA) trade deal, which replaces the North American Free Trade Agreement, the U.S. House of Representatives approved the deal in December 2019 (and, subsequent to the close of the reporting period, the Senate voted in January 2020 to approve it). Global manufacturing and export data continued to show evidence of trade-related slumps, which increased worries that the slowdown would spread into other segments of the global economy.

The Brexit saga also appeared to make a breakthrough by the end of 2019. After former Prime Minister Theresa May was unable to secure a Brexit deal by the original March 29, 2019 deadline, she resigned as of June 7, 2019. When her successor, Boris Johnson, failed to meet the EU’s first deadline extension of October 31, 2019, the EU approved a “flextension” to January 31, 2020. A U.K. general election was scheduled for December 2019, wherein the Conservative Party won a large majority and bolstered Prime Minister Johnson’s mandate to get Brexit done. A few days later, the British Parliament passed the Brexit Bill. In Italy, investors worried about another potential budget clash between the eurosceptic coalition government and the EU. However, following the unexpected resignation of the prime minister in August 2019, the newly formed coalition government appeared to take a less antagonistic stance. Europe also contended with the “yellow vest” protests in France, immigration policy concerns, Russian sanctions and political risk in Turkey.

Elsewhere, anti-government protests erupted across Latin America, Hong Kong and Lebanon during 2019, and Venezuela’s economic and political crisis deepened. In Argentina, markets were shocked by the defeat of incumbent President Macri, prompting concerns about the economic policies favored by the incoming Fernandez administration. Brazil’s Bolsonaro administration achieved a legislative win on pension reform and kept the economy on a path of modest growth. Europe’s traditional centrist parties lost seats in the May 2019 Parliamentary elections and populist parties saw marginal gains. The ruling parties in India and South Africa maintained their majorities, where slower economic growth could complicate their respective reform mandates.

U.S. REITS rebounded from 2018 lows when U.S. real estate investment trusts (REITs) common equities generated negative returns for the year. U.S. REITs were priced to generate highly attractive returns after a couple of lackluster years in an otherwise buoyant period for U.S. equities and private real estate. To be sure, low and falling long-term interest rates during 2019 provided strong support for valuations, particularly against the backdrop of a healthy economy. The Wilshire U.S. Real Estate Securities Index ended the period up 25.79%.

What key strategies were used to manage the Fund during this twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2019?

The Fund’s investment objective is high current income and capital appreciation. The Fund is designed to invest at least 90% of its assets in income producing common stocks, preferred stocks, convertible preferred stocks and debt securities issued by real estate companies, with at least 80% of its total assets invested in income producing equity securities issued by real estate investment trusts (REITs).

In managing the JRS portfolio, Security Capital seeks to maintain significant property type and geographic diversification while taking into account company credit quality, sector, and security-type allocations. Investment decisions are based on a multi-layered analysis of the company, the real estate it owns, its management, and the relative price of the security, with a focus on securities that we believe will be best positioned to generate sustainable income and potential price appreciation over the long-run. In addition to fundamental security research, the proportion of the Fund invested in common equity versus preferred, fixed-income and cash investments is a key tactic we use to manage risk at a portfolio level. In general, in times of strong economic growth we increase the portfolio allocation to common equity. In less certain times, we tend to increase our allocation toward preferred securities. As of December 31, 2019, the Fund was allocated 57.1% in common equity, 40.7% in preferreds and 2.2% in cash.

How did the Fund perform during this twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2019?

The table in the Performance Overview and Holding Summaries section of this report provides total returns for the one-year, five-year and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2019. The Fund’s total returns on net asset value (NAV) are compared with the performance of a corresponding market index. For the twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2019, JRS outperformed the Wilshire U.S. Real Estate Securities Index and its Blended Benchmark.

For common equity investors in 2019, there were distinctive performance differences by property type with the underlying themes and influences reflecting company-specific factors, relative pricing and shifting investor expectations colored by macro-economic trends.

In this context, the Fund’s leading performance contributors relative to index by major property type in 2019 were the office, industrial and strip center companies. Outperformance from the office companies was primarily centered on west coast focused companies. Lease and development economics continue to benefit from strong demand in primary west coast office markets and owners there are not burdened with older buildings facing competition from new construction and creative redevelopment versus east coast/New York City offices in this segment. For the industrial segment, outperformance was driven by both the data center companies as well as the traditional warehouse companies. Demand for data center assets and the associated operational expertise appears nearly inexhaustible. Traditional warehouse companies continue to see robust user demand, the result of a healthy economy and the logistics demands of serving the booming online economy. While warehouse supply pipelines are active and a continued focus of wary investors, industrial markets have remained generally balanced particularly with the shift to more infill locations closer to urban centers.

During the reporting period, the Fund’s relative performance was constrained by common equity investments in the hotel and regional mall sectors, and an underweight in health care. Hotel companies have been volatile quarter-to-quarter with equity prices often moving with shifting sentiment on the broader U.S. and global economies.

Portfolio Managers’ Comments (continued)

Investors appear increasingly focused on a number of corrosive factors for cash flow, notably elevated levels of new hotel construction, wage and property tax pressures weighing on operating margins and the inability to acquire assets at accretive economics. The Fund’s cautious stance toward malls, as evidenced by its underweight, was offset by poor performance by Taubman Centers, Inc. We believe the extremely high quality of Taubman’s portfolio is not fully appreciated by the market. For the mall companies, investors have been highly cautious regarding the shifting retailing landscape in the context of accelerating online sales and the associated shifts in strategy by retailers, including store closures and bankruptcies. In addition, gaining control and repurposing of department stores is a significant challenge for mall companies, ballooning their capital budgets and stressing balance sheets, but with an opaque value proposition in terms of cash flow, growth and risk. Health care REIT performance was very sensitive to intermediate term moves in interest rate levels and the underweight in the Fund was based on our forecast of fundamental value versus near-term price increases due to a decline in interest rates.

Fund Leverage

IMPACT OF THE FUND’S LEVERAGE STRATEGY ON PERFORMANCE

One important factor impacting the returns of the Fund’s common shares relative to its comparative benchmarks was the Fund’s use of leverage through bank borrowings. The Fund uses leverage because our research has shown that, over time, leveraging provides opportunities for additional income. The opportunity arises when short-term rates that the Fund pays on its leveraging instruments are lower than the interest the Fund earns on its portfolio securities that it has bought with the proceeds of that leverage. This has been particularly true in the recent market environment where short-term rates have been low by historical standards.

However, use of leverage can expose Fund common shares to additional price volatility. When the Fund uses leverage, the Fund’s common shares will experience a greater increase in their net asset value if the securities acquired through the use of leverage increase in value, but will also experience a correspondingly larger decline in their net asset value if the securities acquired through leverage decline in value, which will make the shares’ net asset value more volatile, and total return performance more variable, over time.

In addition, common share income in levered funds will typically decrease in comparison to unlevered funds when short-term interest rates increase and increase when short-term interest rates decrease. In recent quarters, fund leverage expenses have generally tracked the overall movement of short-term tax-exempt interest rates. While fund leverage expenses are somewhat higher than their all-time lows after the 2007-2009 financial crisis, which has contributed to a reduction in common share net income and long-term total return potential, leverage nevertheless continues to provide the opportunity for incremental common share income. Management believes that the potential benefits from leverage continue to outweigh the associated increase in risk and volatility previously described.

The Fund’s use of leverage had a positive impact on total return performance during this reporting period.

The Fund also continued to utilize forward starting interest rate swap contracts to partially hedge its future interest cost of leverage, which as mentioned previously, is through the use of bank borrowings. The swap contracts impact on total return performance was negative during this reporting period.

As of December 31, 2019, the Fund’s percentages of leverage are as shown in the accompanying table.

Common Share Information

DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION

The following 19(a) Notice presents the Fund’s most current distribution information as of November 30, 2019 as required by certain exempted regulatory relief the Fund has received.

Because the ultimate tax character of your distributions depends on the Fund’s performance for its entire fiscal year (which is the calendar year for the Fund) as well as certain fiscal year-end (FYE) tax adjustments, estimated distribution source information you receive with each distribution may differ from the tax information reported to you on your Fund’s IRS Form 1099 statement.

DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION – AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2019

This notice provides shareholders with information regarding fund distributions, as required by current securities laws. You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Fund’s Managed Distribution Policy.

The Fund may in certain periods distribute more than its income and net realized capital gains, and the Fund currently estimates that it has done so for the fiscal year-to-date period. In such instances, a portion of the distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with “yield” or “income.”

The amounts and sources of distributions set forth below are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes. More details about the Fund’s distributions and the basis for these estimates are available on www.nuveen.com/cef.

The following table provides estimates of the Fund’s distribution sources, reflecting year-to-date cumulative experience through the latest month-end. The Fund attributes these estimates equally to each regular distribution throughout the year. Consequently, the estimated information shown below is for the current distribution, and also represents an updated estimate for all prior months in the year.

The following table provides information regarding JRS’ distributions and total return performance over various time periods. This information is intended to help you better understand whether returns for the specified time periods were sufficient to meet distributions.

DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION – AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2019

The following tables provide information regarding the Fund’s common share distributions and total return performance for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. This information is intended to help you better understand whether the Fund’s returns for the specified time period were sufficient to meet its distributions.

CHANGE IN METHOD OF PUBLISHING NUVEEN CLOSED-END FUND DISTRIBUTION AMOUNTS

During November 2019, the Nuveen Closed-End Funds discontinued the practice of announcing Fund distribution amounts and timing via press release. Instead, information about the Nuveen Closed-End Funds’ monthly and quarterly periodic distributions to shareholders are posted and can be found on Nuveen’s enhanced closed-end fund resource page, which is at www.nuveen.com/closed-end-fund-distributions, along with other Nuveen closed-end fund product updates. Shareholders can expect regular distribution information to be posted on www.nuveen.com on the first business day of each month.

COMMON SHARE REPURCHASES

During August 2019, the Fund’s Board of Trustees reauthorized an open-market share repurchase program, allowing the Fund to repurchase an aggregate of up to approximately 10% of its outstanding shares.

11

Common Share Information (continued)

As of December 31, 2019, and since the inception of the Fund’s repurchase program, the Fund has cumulatively repurchased and retired common shares as shown in the accompanying table.

During the current reporting period, the Fund did not repurchase any of its outstanding shares.

OTHER COMMON SHARE INFORMATION

As of December 31, 2019, and during the current reporting period, the Fund’s common share price was trading at a premium/(discount) to its common share NAV as shown in the accompanying table.

Risk Considerations and Investment Policy Updates

Risk Considerations

Fund shares are not guaranteed or endorsed by any bank or other insured depository institution, and are not federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Nuveen Real Estate Income Fund (JRS)

Investing in closed-end funds involves risk; principal loss is possible. There is no guarantee the Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved. Closed-end fund shares may frequently trade at a discount or premium to their net asset value. Real estate investments may suffer due to economic downturns and changes in commercial real estate values, rents, property taxes, interest rates and tax laws. The Fund’s concentration in real estate may involve greater risk and volatility than more diversified investments. Prices of equity securities may decline significantly over short or extended periods of time. Debt or fixed income securities such as those held by the Fund, are subject to market risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, derivatives risk, liquidity risk, and income risk. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall. Leverage increases return volatility and magnifies the Fund’s potential return and its risks; there is no guarantee a fund’s leverage strategy will be successful. For these and other risks such as preferred securities risk, see the Fund’s web page at www.nuveen.com/JRS.

Investment Policy Updates

Change in Investment Policy

The Fund has recently adopted the following policy regarding limits to investments in illiquid securities:

While there are no such limits imposed by applicable regulations, certain Nuveen Closed-End Funds formerly had investment policies that placed limits on a Fund’s ability to invest in illiquid securities. All exchange-listed Nuveen Closed-End Funds now have no formal limit on their ability to invest in such illiquid securities, but the Fund’s portfolio management team will monitor such investments in the regular, overall management of the Fund’s portfolio securities.

Common stocks and other equity-type securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded and are generally classified as Level 1. Securities primarily traded on the Nasdaq National Market (“Nasdaq”) are valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price and are generally classified as Level 1. However, securities traded on a securities exchange or Nasdaq for which there were no transactions on a given day or securities not listed on a securities exchange or Nasdaq are valued at the quoted bid price and are generally classified as Level 2.

27

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Prices of fixed-income securities are provided by an independent pricing service (“pricing service”) approved by the Board. The pricing service establishes a security’s fair value using methods that may include consideration of the following: yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity and rating, market quotes or indications of value from security dealers, evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral, general market conditions and other information and analysis, including the obligor’s credit characteristics considered relevant. These securities are generally classified as Level 2. In pricing certain securities, particularly less liquid and lower quality securities, the pricing service may consider information about a security, its issuer or market activity, provided by the Adviser. These securities are generally classified as
Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the observability of the significant inputs.

Prices of swap contracts are also provided by a pricing service approved by the Board using the same methods as described above, and are generally classified as Level 2.

Repurchase agreements are valued at contract amount plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. These securities are generally classified as Level 2.

Certain securities may not be able to be priced by the pre-established pricing methods as described above. Such securities may be valued by the Board and/or its appointee at fair value. These securities generally include, but are not limited to, restricted securities (securities which may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) for which a pricing service is unable to provide a market price; securities whose trading has been formally suspended; debt securities that have gone into default and for which there is no current market quotation; a security whose market price is not available from a pre-established pricing source; a security with respect to which an event has occurred that is likely to materially affect the value of the security after the market has closed but before the calculation of the Fund’s NAV (as may be the case in non-U.S. markets on which the security is primarily traded) or make it difficult or impossible to obtain a reliable market quotation; and a security whose price, as provided by the pricing service, is not deemed to reflect the security’s fair value. As a general principle, the fair value of a security would appear to be the amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for it in a current sale. A variety of factors may be considered in determining the fair value of such securities, which may include consideration of the following: yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity and rating, market quotes or indications of value from security dealers, evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral, general market conditions and other information and analysis, including the obligor’s credit characteristics considered relevant. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the observability of the significant inputs. Regardless of the method employed to value a particular security, all valuations are subject to review by the Board and/or its appointee.

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the Fund’s fair value measurements as of the end of the reporting period:
