Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11 1
President's Letter
Dear Shareowner,
Last year was difficult for investors, although bond investors experienced a
much smoother ride than equity investors. The year was characterized by
higher-than-usual volatility in the equity markets triggered by a series of
major events, including the nuclear disaster in Japan, the European financial
crisis, and political gridlock in Washington D.C. The Standard & Poor's 500
Index dropped 21% from its May high to its October low, only to finish the year
virtually flat. The Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index, by contrast, was up
7.8% for the year.
As we ended 2011, some positive trends were developing in the U.S. economy.
Consumption, the most important driver of economic growth, rose 2.3% in the
fourth quarter, up nicely from 0.7% in the second and third quarters. Year-
over-year retail sales grew 4% over the last six months of 2011, and auto sales
reached their highest level of the year. There were improvements in broad
economic data, including employment and rising consumer confidence. Initial
jobless claims trended in the right direction, with the final weekly report of
2011 falling to a three-and-a-half year low.
While we expect moderate economic growth in the U.S. in 2012, there are still
reasons for investors to remain cautious. The central issue remains Europe,
which faces weak or possibly declining economic growth. The greatest risk to our
outlook for 2012 is the possible contagion effects of the European
sovereign-debt and banking crises. The European Union must find a comprehensive
solution that includes ensuring funding for troubled sovereigns, achieving
workable fiscal and economic integration, and improving labor competitiveness in
southern Europe. Further setbacks in Europe could lead to further market
volatility, while tangible progress could help the equity markets make up last
year's lackluster results.
Pioneer's investment professionals focus on finding good opportunities to invest
in both equity and bond markets using the same disciplined investment approach
we have used since 1928. Our strategy is to identify undervalued individual
securities with the greatest potential for success, carefully weighing risk
against reward. Our teams of investment professionals continually monitor and
analyze the relative valuations of different sectors and securities
2 Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11
globally to help build portfolios that we believe can help you achieve your
investment goals.
At Pioneer, we have long advocated the benefits of staying diversified* and
investing for the long term. The strategy has generally performed well for many
investors. Our advice, as always, is to work closely with a trusted financial
advisor to discuss your goals and work together to develop an investment
strategy that meets your individual needs. There is no single best strategy that
works for every investor.
We invite you to learn more about Pioneer and our time-tested approach to
investing by consulting with your financial advisor or visiting us online at

you for investing with Pioneer.

Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11 3
Portfolio Management Discussion | 12/31/11
Amid great uncertainty and market volatility, U.S. real estate investment trusts
(REITs) outperformed the broader equity markets and proved to be a rewarding
place to invest during the 12 months ended December 31, 2011. In the following
interview, Matthew Troxell of AEW Capital Management, L.P., Pioneer Real Estate
Shares' subadviser, discusses the market environment for real estate investment
trusts (REITs) and the performance of Pioneer Real Estate Shares during the
12-month period.
Q How did Pioneer Real Estate Shares perform during the 12 months ended
December 31, 2011?
A Pioneer Real Estate Shares Class A shares returned 8.90% at net asset value
during the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, while the Fund's benchmark,
the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) U.S. REIT Index1, returned
8.69%. During the same 12-month period, the average return of the 209
mutual funds in Lipper's Real Estate Funds category was 7.64%.
Positive stock selection in the office, regional mall, health care, and
storage sectors played a significant role in the Fund's outperformance
during the period. While the results were gratifying overall, investments
in the industrial and hotel sectors did provide some headwind, as did the
portfolio's overweight position in the underperforming diversified sector,
and limited exposure to the outperforming regional mall sector.
Q Could you describe the market environment during the 12 months ended
December 31, 2011?
A In general, 2011 was a very volatile year for equities as markets were
roiled by numerous factors. Political turmoil in North Africa and the
Middle East, Japan's earthquake and tsunami last March, rising concerns
over the sovereign-debt crisis in Europe, the U.S. debt ceiling debate and
resulting political divide in Congress, followed closely by Standard &
Poor's historic downgrade of its rating for U.S. Treasuries, all
contributed to fears of a global economic slowdown. However, signs of
improvement in the U.S. economy that included solid corporate earnings
reports, improved retail sales and a decrease in unemployment claims, and
progress in addressing Europe's debt issues helped to diminish investors'
expectations of a double-dip recession and lifted the markets late in the
2011 calendar year.
Q Which individual investments contributed the most to the Fund's performance
during the 12 months ended December 31, 2011?
A Our decision to overweight the portfolio to outperforming REITs Nationwide
Health Properties and DuPont Fabros Technologies was very
4 Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11
rewarding. Nationwide Health Properties benefited from a February 2011
announcement that the company had agreed to be acquired by Ventas, a health
care REIT, at a premium over its share price, thus creating the largest
health care REIT in the country. The stock price of DuPont Fabros
Technologies climbed as a result of improved leasing conditions in the data
center industry, which removed fears about the company's development
pipeline. Not owning underperforming regional mall REIT General Growth
Properties, which ranked among the weakest performers in the sector given
concerns about the company's earnings disappointment in the second quarter
of 2011, also was beneficial to the Fund's returns.
Q Which investments detracted the most from the Fund's performance during the
12 months ended December 31, 2011?
A Our decision to overweight the portfolio's investments in the
underperforming Omega Healthcare Investors and underweight investments in
the outperforming Digital Realty Trust proved disappointing for results.
Omega Healthcare lagged in response to the announcement that the government
was cutting Medicare rates for skilled nursing facilities operators. Since
the company has the largest exposure to skilled nursing facilities within
the health care sector, its stock price fell. However, we remain confident
in the company's solid value and its ability to survive the cuts without
any material impact on earnings. Limiting the Fund's exposure to data
center property owner Digital Realty Trust also hurt results during the
period, because the company benefited from the positive effects of improved
leasing conditions. We remain committed to the portfolio's below-benchmark
weighting in Digital Realty Trust, however, and to the above-benchmark
weighting in the aforementioned DuPont Fabros Technologies, which in our
view represents a better relative value.
Q Given the U.S. economy's uneven recovery, how did the various property
types in which the Fund invests fare during the 12 months ended December
31, 2011?
A The apartment sector is furthest along in its recovery, with vacancy rates
down substantially from peak levels. Rental growth has been the best
performer of all the major property types, and it's possible that rental
growth is now peaking and may improve more slowly. Lodging has also seen
marked improvement in fundamentals, but pricing has been extremely volatile
given the fact that prospects for hotels are closely tied to the economic
outlook. Prices of lodging REITs fell for much of the 12-month reporting
period but recovered some of their losses in the fourth quarter of 2011 as
recession fears abated.
Economic concerns also weighed on the office and industrial sectors during
the 12-month reporting period, as hiring has been slow to gain momentum.
Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11 5
The slow pace of hiring has resulted in smaller declines in vacancy rates
than previously expected, and slightly negative returns in the sectors for
the full 2011 calendar year. The two sectors tend to lag somewhat behind
apartments and lodging, because their longer lease structure means that
improvements in fundamentals take longer to affect the bottom line.
Retail REITs performed slightly better than the REIT sector as a whole
during 2011, though retailers, too, were sensitive to the overall economic
outlook. Improving consumer confidence and labor market metrics have lifted
expectations for the near term, though confidence remains below
pre-recession levels. Health care REITs performed well during the period
given their conservative balance sheets, but we think they may offer less
value at current prices than do other subsectors.
Q Dividends can help provide a cushion in volatile markets. How did REIT
yields compare to other income-producing investments as of December 31,
2011?
A REIT yields are substantially lower than they were in the 1990s, when 8%
yields or better were commonplace. However, they represent an attractive
option today given their healthy yield spreads relative to other income-
generating alternatives, especially U.S. Treasuries. As of December 31,
2011, the dividend yield for the MSCI U.S. REIT Index was 3.8%, nearly 200
basis points (2.00%) higher than the yield for the 10-year U.S. Treasury
bond, which typically serves as a yield benchmark. The spread over
Treasuries for REITS is above the long-term average, and appears quite
attractive in an environment where investors have been searching for higher
yields. If economic conditions continue to improve, we think REIT
dividends* could grow as property incomes continue to improve, thereby
lifting their historically low payout ratios from current levels.
Q Do you think interest rates are likely to rise in the coming months?
A We think that interest rates are likely to remain low for the foreseeable
future. However, at some point they will increase, most likely in tandem
with a more robust economic recovery. While REITs would see higher
financing costs in a rising-rate environment, they also would be able to
capture higher income from rents and improving occupancies in a way that
traditional fixed-income vehicles, like bonds, could not. Combined with a
strengthening economy, higher baseline interest rates have a mixed effect
on the REIT sector, but they are an unequivocal negative for most bond
portfolios, particularly those dominated by Treasuries.
* Dividends are not guaranteed.
6 Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11
Q What is your outlook for the real estate market in 2012?
A We believe European sovereign-debt woes, pre-election uncertainty in the
U.S., and questions about the U.S. fiscal outlook will continue to weigh on
the real estate market in the Fund's new fiscal year. However, there is
some room for optimism. The U.S. economy has largely looked past the
problems in Europe in recent months, and economic indicators as of the end
of 2011 had firmed considerably compared with the summer of 2011. Barring a
major market shock, we think the economy may continue to expand at a
moderate pace in 2012. That scenario represents a fairly supportive
environment for REITs, as it would allow financing costs to remain low
while also allowing property incomes to improve. Such a scenario likely
would make REITs a useful component of any broadly diversified* investment
portfolio. Against the current backdrop, we plan to maintain our bias in
the Fund toward REITs with strong balance sheets, while limiting risk -- a
strategy that, we believe, has served the Fund well in recent years.

Call 1-800-225-6292 or visit us.pioneerinvestments.com for the most recent
month-end performance results. Current performance may be lower or higher than
the performance data quoted.
The performance data quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee
of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and
shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Class C shares held for less than one year are also subject to a 1% contingent
deferred sales charge (CDSC). The performance of Class C shares does not reflect
the 1% front-end sales charge in effect prior to February 1, 2004. If you paid a
1% sales charge, your returns would be lower than those shown above. "If Held"
results represent the percent change in net asset value per share. Returns would
have been lower had sales charges been reflected. All results are historical and
assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Other share classes are
available for which performance and expenses will differ.
Performance results reflect any applicable expense waivers in effect during the
periods shown. Without such waivers Fund performance would be lower. Waivers may
not be in effect for all funds. Certain fee waivers are contractual through a
specified period. Otherwise, fee waivers can be rescinded at any time. See the
prospectus and financial statements for more information.
The performance table and graph do not reflect the deduction of fees and taxes
that a shareowner would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund
shares.

Comparing Ongoing Fund Expenses
As a shareowner in the Fund, you incur two types of costs:
(1) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service
(12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses; and
(2) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments.
This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing expenses (in
dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing
costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment
of $1,000 at the beginning of the Fund's latest six-month period and held
throughout the six months.
Using the Tables
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Expenses
The first table below provides information about actual account values and
actual expenses. You may use the information in this table, together with the
amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period as
follows:
(1) Divide your account value by $1,000
Example: an $8,600 account value [divided by] $1,000 = 8.6
(2) Multiply the result in (1) above by the corresponding share class's number
in the third row under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period"
to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Expenses Paid on a $1,000 Investment in Pioneer Real Estate Shares
Based on actual returns from July 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011.

Ending Account $ 986.95 $ 981.49 $ 983.35 $ 990.42
Value on 12/31/11
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Expenses Paid $ 7.96 $ 13.73 $ 12.10 $ 5.02
During Period*
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 1.59%, 2.75%,
2.42%, and 1.00% for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class Y shares,
respectively, multiplied by the average account value over the period,
multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).
14 Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and
hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed
rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual
return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate
the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period.
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the
Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5%
hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your
ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales
charges (loads) that are charged at the time of the transaction. Therefore, the
table below is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you
determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if
these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Level 1 -- quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2 -- other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for
similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk,
etc.)
Level 3 -- significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own
assumptions in determining fair value of investments)
Generally, equity securities are categorized as Level 1, fixed income securities
and senior loans as Level 2 and securities valued using fair value methods

Notes to Financial Statements | 12/31/11
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Pioneer Real Estate Shares (the Fund) is a Delaware statutory trust registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management
investment company. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term
growth of capital. Current income is a secondary objective.
The Fund offers four classes of shares designated as Class A, Class B, Class C
and Class Y shares. Effective as of the close of business on December 31, 2009,
Class B shares are no longer offered to new or existing shareholders, except
that dividends and/or capital gain distributions may continue to be reinvested
in Class B shares, and shareholders may exchange their Class B shares for Class
B shares of other Pioneer funds, as permitted by existing exchange privileges.
Each class of shares represents an interest in the same portfolio of
investments of the Fund and has identical rights (based on relative net asset
values) to assets and liquidation proceeds. Share classes can bear different
rates of class-specific fees and expenses such as transfer agent and
distribution fees. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result
in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of
different dividends from net investment income earned by each class. The
Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust of the Fund gives the Board the
flexibility to specify either per-share voting or dollar-weighted voting when
submitting matters for shareholder approval. Under per-share voting, each share
of a class of the Fund is entitled to one vote. Under dollar-weighted voting, a
shareholder's voting power is determined not by the number of shares owned, but
by the dollar value of the shares on the record date. Each share class has
exclusive voting rights with respect to matters affecting only that class,
including with respect to the distribution plan for that class. There is no
distribution plan for Class Y shares. Class B shares convert to Class A shares
approximately eight years after the date of purchase.
The Fund's financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles that require the management of the
Fund to, among other things, make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported
amounts of income, expenses and gains and losses on investments during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11 27
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Fund in the preparation of its financial statements, which are consistent with
those policies generally accepted in the investment company industry:
A. Security Valuation
Security transactions are recorded as of trade date. The net asset value of
the Fund is computed once daily, on each day the New York Stock Exchange
(NYSE) is open, as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE. In computing
the net asset value, securities that have traded on an exchange are valued at
the last sale price on the principal exchange where they are traded.
Securities that have not traded on the date of valuation, or securities for
which sale prices are not available, generally are valued at the mean between
the last bid and asked prices. Short-term fixed income securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less generally are valued at amortized
cost. Money market mutual funds are valued at net asset value.
Trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each day at various
times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in
computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of such
times.
Securities for which market prices and/or quotations are not readily
available or are considered to be unreliable are valued using fair value
methods pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The Fund may
use fair value methods if it is determined that a significant event has
occurred after the close of the exchange or market on which the security
trades and prior to the determination of the Fund's net asset value. Examples
of a significant event might include political or economic news, corporate
restructurings, natural disasters, terrorist activity or trading halts. Thus,
the valuation of the Fund's securities may differ from exchange prices.
At December 31, 2011, there were no securities that were valued using fair
value methods (other than securities that were valued using prices supplied
by independent pricing services). Inputs used when applying fair value
methods to value a security may include credit ratings, the financial
condition of the company, current market conditions and comparable
securities.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date except that certain
dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed
are recorded as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the ex-dividend data in the
exercise of reasonable diligence. Interest income, including interest on
income bearing cash accounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend and
interest income are reported net of unrecoverable foreign taxes withheld at
the applicable country rates.
Gains and losses on sales of investments are calculated on the identified
cost method for both financial reporting and federal income tax purposes.
28 Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11
B. Federal Income Taxes
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
all of its taxable income and net realized capital gains, if any, to its
shareowners. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Tax
years for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by
federal and state tax authorities.
The amounts and characterizations of distributions to shareowners for
financial reporting purposes are determined in accordance with federal income
tax rules. Therefore, the sources of the Fund's distributions may be shown in
the accompanying financial statements as from or in excess of net investment
income or as from net realized gain on investment transactions, or as from
paid-in capital, depending on the type of book/tax differences that may
exist.
A portion of the dividend income recorded by the Fund is from distributions
by publicly traded REITs, and such distributions for tax purposes may also
consist of capital gains and return of capital. The actual return of capital
and capital gains portions of such distributions will be determined by formal
notifications from the REITs subsequent to the calendar year-end.
Distributions received from the REITs that are determined to be a return of
capital are recorded by the Fund as a reduction of the cost basis of the
securities held and those determined to be capital gain are reflected as such
on the Statement of Operations.
At December 31, 2011, the Fund had a net capital loss carryforward of
$9,433,410 of which the following amounts will expire in 2017 and 2018, if
not utilized: $8,956,739 in 2017 and $476,671 in 2018.
The Fund has elected to defer $93,403 of capital losses recognized between
November 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011 to its fiscal year ending December 31,
2012.
At December 31, 2011, the Fund reclassified $1,058,606 to decrease
undistributed net investment income and $1,058,606 to decrease paid-in
capital, to reflect permanent book/tax differences. The reclassification has
no impact on the net assets of the Fund and presents the Fund's capital
accounts on a tax basis.
Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11 29
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31,
2011 and December 31, 2010 was as follows:
----------------------------------------------------------
2011 2010
----------------------------------------------------------
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income $2,430,311 $1,688,813
Tax return of capital -- 1,253,410
----------------------------------------------------------
Total $2,430,311 $2,942,223
==========================================================
The following shows the components of distributable earnings on a federal
income tax basis at December 31, 2011:
---------------------------------------------------
2011
---------------------------------------------------
Distributable earnings:
Capital loss carryforward $ (9,433,410)
Post-October loss deferred (93,403)
Net unrealized gain 49,029,346
---------------------------------------------------
Total $ 39,502,533
===================================================
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized gain is
attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
C. Fund Shares
The Fund records sales and repurchases of its shares as of trade date.
Pioneer Funds Distributor, Inc. (PFD), the principal underwriter for the Fund
and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of UniCredit S.p.A. (UniCredit),
earned $13,625 in underwriting commissions on the sale of Class A shares
during the year ended December 31, 2011.
D. Class Allocations
Income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are
calculated at the Fund level and allocated daily to each class of shares
based on its respective percentage of adjusted net assets at the beginning of
the day. During the fiscal year, the Fund recognized gains of $2,475 in the
settlement of class action lawsuits from several different companies, as
reflected on the Statement of Operations.
Distribution fees are calculated based on the average daily net asset value
attributable to Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Fund, respectively
(see Note 4). Class Y shares do not pay distribution fees. All expenses and
fees paid to the transfer agent, Pioneer Investment Management Shareholder
Services, Inc. (PIMSS), for its services are allocated among the classes of
shares based on the number of accounts in each class and the ratable
allocation of related out-of-pocket expenses (see Note 3).
30 Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11
Distributions to shareowners are recorded as of the ex-dividend date.
Distributions paid by the Fund with respect to each class of shares are
calculated in the same manner and at the same time, except that net
investment income dividends to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y shares
can reflect different transfer agent and distribution expense rates.
E. Risks
Because the Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in Real
Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), the Fund may be subject to certain risks
associated with direct investments in REITs. REITs may be affected by changes
in the value of their underlying properties and by defaults of their
borrowers or tenants. REITs depend generally on their ability to generate
cash flow to make distributions to shareowners, and certain REITs have
self-liquidation provisions by which mortgages held may be paid in full and
distributions of capital returns may be made at any time. In addition, the
performance of a REIT may be affected by its failure to qualify for tax-free
pass through of income under the Internal Revenue Code or its failure to
maintain exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act of
1940. The Fund's prospectus contains unaudited information regarding the
Fund's principal risks. Please refer to that document when considering the
Fund's principal risks.
F. Securities Lending
The Fund may lend securities in its portfolio to certain broker-dealers or
other institutional investors. When entering into a securities loan
transaction, the Fund typically receives cash collateral from the borrower
equal to at least the value of the securities loaned, which is invested in
temporary investments. Credit Suisse AG, New York Branch, as the Fund's
securities lending agent, manages the Fund's securities lending collateral.
The income earned on the investment of collateral is shared with the borrower
and the lending agent in payment of any rebate due to the borrower with
respect to the securities loan, and in compensation for the lending agent's
services to the Fund. The Fund also continues to receive payments in lieu of
dividends or interest on the securities loaned. Gain or loss on the value of
the loaned securities that may occur during the term of the loan will be for
the account of the Fund. The amount of the collateral is required to be
adjusted daily to reflect any price fluctuation in the value of the loaned
securities. If the required market value of the collateral is less than the
value of the loaned securities, the borrower is required to deliver
additional collateral for the account of the Fund prior to the close of
business on that day. The Fund has the right, under the lending agreement, to
terminate the loan and recover the securities from the borrower with prior
notice. The Fund is required to return the cash collateral to the borrower
and could suffer a loss if the value
Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11 31
of the collateral, as invested, has declined. At December 31, 2011, the Fund
had no securities on loan.
G. Repurchase Agreements
With respect to repurchase agreements entered into by the Fund, the value of
the underlying securities (collateral), including accrued interest, is
required to be equal to or in excess of the repurchase price. The collateral
for all repurchase agreements is held in safekeeping in the customer-only
account of the Fund's custodian or a subcustodian of the Fund. The Fund's
investment adviser, Pioneer Investment Management, Inc. (PIM), is responsible
for determining that the value of the collateral remains at least equal to
the repurchase price.
2. Management Agreement
PIM, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of UniCredit, manages the Fund's
portfolio. Management fees are calculated daily at the annual rate of 0.80% of
the Fund's average daily net assets up to $1 billion and 0.75% on assets over
$1 billion. PIM pays a portion of the fee it receives from the Fund to AEW
Capital Management, L.P. as compensation for sub-advisory services to the Fund.
In addition, under the management and administration agreements, certain other
services and costs, including accounting, regulatory reporting and insurance
premiums, are paid by the Fund as administrative reimbursements. Included in
"Due to affiliates" reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities is
$4,963 in management fees, administrative costs and certain other
reimbursements payable to PIM at December 31, 2011.
3. Transfer Agent
PIMSS, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of UniCredit, provides substantially
all transfer agent and shareowner services to the Fund at negotiated rates.
In addition, the Fund reimburses PIMSS for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
PIMSS related to shareholder communications activities such as proxy and
statement mailings, outgoing phone calls and omnibus relationship contracts.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, such out-of-pocket expenses by class of
shares were as follows:
Shareholder Communications:
Class A $ 80,753
Class B 13,646
Class C 13,443
Class Y 4,416
-------------------------------------------
Total $112,258
===========================================
32 Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11
Included in "Due to affiliates" reflected on the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities is $36,694 in transfer agent fees and out-of-pocket reimbursements
payable to PIMSS at December 31, 2011.
4. Distribution Plan
The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 with respect to its Class A, Class B and Class C
shares. Pursuant to the Plan, the Fund pays PFD 0.25% of the average daily net
assets attributable to Class A shares as compensation for personal services
and/or account maintenance services or distribution services with regard to
Class A shares. Pursuant to the Plan, the Fund also pays PFD 1.00% of the
average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares. The fee
for Class B and Class C shares consists of a 0.25% service fee and a 0.75%
distribution fee paid as compensation for personal services and/or account
maintenance services or distribution services with regard to Class B and Class
C shares. Included in "Due to affiliates" reflected on the Statement of Assets
and Liabilities is $2,015 in distribution fees payable to PFD at December 31,
2011.
In addition, redemptions of each class of shares (except Class Y shares) may be
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). A CDSC of 1.00% may be
imposed on redemptions of certain net asset value purchases of Class A shares
within 12 months of purchase. Class B shares that are redeemed within five
years of purchase are subject to a CDSC at declining rates beginning at 4.00%,
based on the lower of cost or market value of shares being redeemed.
Redemptions of Class C shares within one year of purchase are subject to a CDSC
of 1.00%, based on the lower of cost or market value of shares being redeemed.
Shares purchased as part of an exchange remain subject to any CDSC that applied
to the original purchase of those shares. There is no CDSC for Class Y shares.
Proceeds from the CDSCs are paid to PFD. For the year ended December 31, 2011,
CDSCs in the amount of $8,734 were paid to PFD.
5. Expense Offset Arrangements
The Fund has entered into certain expense offset arrangements with PIMSS which
may result in a reduction in the Fund's total expenses due to interest earned
on cash held by PIMSS. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Fund's
expenses were not reduced under such arrangements.
6. Line of Credit Facility
As of December 31, 2011, the Fund, along with certain other funds in the
Pioneer Family of Funds (the Funds), participated in a $165 million committed,
unsecured revolving line of credit facility. Borrowings are used solely for
temporary or emergency purposes. The Fund was permitted to borrow up to
Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11 33
the lesser of the amount available under the facility or the limits set for
borrowing by the Fund's prospectus and the 1940 Act. Interest on borrowings was
payable at the higher of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) on the
borrowing date plus 1.25% on an annualized basis or the Federal Funds Rate on
the borrowing date plus 1.25% on an annualized basis. The Funds paid an annual
commitment fee for this facility. The commitment fee was allocated among
participating Funds based on an allocation schedule set forth in the credit
agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Fund had no borrowings
under this agreement.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareowners of
Pioneer Real Estate Shares:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, of Pioneer Real Estate Shares (the "Fund") as of
December 31, 2011, and the related statement of operations for the year then
ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the
period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in
the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are
the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and financial highlights are free of material
misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund's internal
control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal
control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2011, by correspondence
with the custodian and broker or by other appropriate auditing procedures where
replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Pioneer Real Estate Shares at December 31, 2011, the results of its operations
for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two
years in the period then ended, and financial highlights for each of the five
years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.

Approval of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements
Pioneer Investment Management, Inc. (PIM) serves as the investment adviser to
Pioneer Real Estate Shares (the Fund) pursuant to an investment advisory
agreement between PIM and the Fund. PIM has retained AEW Capital Management,
L.P. (AEW) to serve as the sub-adviser to the Fund pursuant to a sub-advisory
agreement between PIM and the sub-adviser. In order for PIM and AEW to remain
the investment adviser and sub-adviser of the Fund, respectively, the Trustees
of the Fund must determine annually whether to renew the investment advisory
agreement and the sub-advisory agreement for the Fund.
The contract review process began in March 2011 as the Trustees of the Fund
agreed on, among other things, an overall approach and timeline for the
process. In July 2011, the Trustees approved the format of the contract review
materials and submitted their formal request to PIM to furnish information
necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement and the
sub-advisory agreement. The contract review materials were provided to the
Trustees in July 2011 and September 2011. After reviewing and discussing the
materials, the Trustees submitted a request for additional information to PIM,
and materials were provided in response to this request. Meetings of the
Independent Trustees of the Fund were held in July, September, October, and
November, 2011 to review and discuss the contract review materials. In
addition, the Trustees took into account the information related to the Fund
provided to the Trustees at each regularly scheduled meeting.
At a meeting held on November 29, 2011, based on their evaluation of the
information provided by PIM, the sub-adviser and third parties, the Trustees of
the Fund, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, unanimously
approved the renewal of the investment advisory agreement and the sub-advisory
agreement for another year. In considering the renewal of the investment
advisory agreement and the sub-advisory agreement, the Trustees considered
various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors
described below. The Trustees did not identify any single factor as the
controlling factor in determining to approve the renewal of the agreements.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services that had
been provided by PIM and the sub-adviser to the Fund, taking into account the
investment objective and strategy of the Fund. The Trustees reviewed the terms
of the investment advisory agreement and the sub-advisory agreement. The
Trustees also reviewed the sub-adviser's investment approach for the Fund, its
research process and its process for trade execution. The Trustees considered
the resources of PIM and the sub-adviser and the personnel of PIM and the
36 Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11
sub-adviser who provide investment management services to the Fund. The
Trustees considered the non-investment resources and personnel of PIM involved
in PIM's services to the Fund, including PIM's compliance and legal resources
and personnel. The Trustees also considered the substantial attention and high
priority given by PIM's senior management to the Pioneer fund complex. In
addition, the Trustees considered PIM's plans to increase resources in its
investment management function and other enhancements to PIM's advisory
capabilities.
The Trustees considered that PIM supervises and monitors the performance of the
Fund's service providers (including the sub-adviser) and provides the Fund with
personnel (including Fund officers) and other resources that are necessary for
the Fund's business management and operations. The Trustees also considered
that, as administrator, PIM is responsible for the administration of the Fund's
business and other affairs. The Trustees considered the fees paid to PIM for
the provision of administration services.
Based on these considerations, the Trustees concluded that the nature, extent
and quality of services that had been provided by PIM and the sub-adviser to
the Fund were satisfactory and consistent with the terms of the investment
advisory agreement and the sub-advisory agreement.
Performance of the Fund
The Trustees considered the performance results of the Fund over various time
periods. They reviewed information comparing the Fund's performance with the
performance of its peer group of funds as classified by Morningstar, Inc.
(Morningstar), an independent provider of investment company data, and with the
performance of the Fund's benchmark index. The Trustees considered that the
Fund's annualized total return was in the fourth quintile of its Morningstar
category for the one and five year periods ended June 30, 2011 and in the third
quintile of its Morningstar category for the three year period ended June 30,
2011. (In all quintile rankings referred to throughout this disclosure, first
quintile is most favorable to the Fund's shareowners. Thus, highest relative
performance would be first quintile and lowest relative expenses would also be
first quintile.) The Trustees discussed the Fund's performance record and PIM's
plan for improving the Fund's performance. The Trustees indicated that they
were satisfied with the information presented with respect to the performance
of the Fund.
Management Fee and Expenses
The Trustees considered information showing the fees and expenses of the Fund
in comparison to the management fees and expense ratios of its peer group of
funds as classified by Morningstar and also to the expense ratios of a peer
group of funds selected on the basis of criteria determined by the Independent
Trustees for this purpose using data provided by Strategic Insight
Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11 37
Mutual Trust Research and Consulting, LLC (Strategic Insight), an independent
third party. The Trustees also considered that PIM, not the Fund, paid the
sub-adviser pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement. The Trustees evaluated both
the fee under the sub-advisory agreement and the portion of the fee under the
investment advisory agreement retained by PIM.
The Trustees considered that the Fund's management fee for the twelve months
ended June 30, 2011 was in the second quintile relative to the management fees
paid by other funds in its Morningstar peer group for the comparable period.
The Trustees also considered the breakpoint in the management fee schedule and
the reduced fee rate on assets over $1 billion. The Trustees considered that
the Fund's expense ratio for the twelve months ended June 30, 2011 was in the
fifth quintile relative to its Strategic Insight peer group for the comparable
period. The Trustees also compared the expense ratio of the Fund with the funds
in the Fund's Morningstar peer group, which was comprised of a greater number
of funds than the Strategic Insight peer group, and noted that the Fund's
expense ratio for the twelve months ended June 30, 2011 was in the fourth
quintile relative to its Morningstar category. The Trustees considered the
Fund's transfer agency expenses, and discussed the impact of a large number of
small accounts on the Fund's expense ratio.
The Trustees reviewed gross and net management fees charged by PIM to its
institutional and other clients, including publicly offered European funds,
U.S. registered investment companies (in a sub-advisory capacity), and
unaffiliated foreign and domestic separate accounts. The Trustees also
considered PIM's costs in providing services to the Fund and to its other
clients and considered the differences in management fees and profit margins
for PIM's Fund and non-Fund services. In evaluating the fees associated with
PIM's client accounts, the Trustees took into account the respective demands,
resources and complexity associated with the Fund and client accounts. The
Trustees noted that in some instances the fee rates for those clients were
lower than the management fee for the Fund and considered that, under the
investment advisory agreement with the Fund, PIM performs additional services
for the Fund that it does not provide to those other clients or services that
are broader in scope, including oversight of the Fund's other service providers
and activities related to compliance and the extensive regulatory and tax
regimes to which the Fund is subject. The Trustees also considered the
different entrepreneurial risks associated with PIM's management of the Fund
and the other client accounts.
The Trustees also reviewed management fees charged by the sub-adviser to its
other clients. The Trustees noted that in most instances the fee rates for
those clients were higher than the sub-advisory fees paid to the sub-adviser
with respect to the Fund. The Trustees concluded that the management fee
payable by the Fund to PIM, as well as the fees payable by PIM to the
sub-adviser of the Fund, were reasonable in relation to the nature and quality
of the services provided by PIM and the sub-adviser.
38 Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11
Profitability
The Trustees considered information provided by PIM regarding the profitability
of PIM with respect to the advisory services provided by PIM to the Fund,
including the methodology used by PIM in allocating certain of its costs to the
management of the Fund. The Trustees also considered PIM's profit margin in
connection with the overall operation of the Fund. The Trustees further
considered the sub-advisory fees received by the sub-adviser with respect to
the Fund and the percentage that such fees represented of the sub-adviser's
overall revenues (for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2010). They
further reviewed the financial results realized by PIM and its affiliates from
non-fund businesses. The Trustees considered PIM's profit margins with respect
to the Fund in comparison to the limited industry data available and noted that
the profitability of any adviser was affected by numerous factors, including
its organizational structure and method for allocating expenses. The Trustees
concluded that the profit margins with respect to the management of the Fund
were not unreasonable.
Economies of Scale
The Trustees considered PIM's views relating to economies of scale in
connection with the Pioneer Funds as fund assets grow and the extent to which
any such economies of scale are shared with funds and fund shareholders. The
Trustees recognize that economies of scale are difficult to identify and
quantify, rarely identifiable on a Fund-by-Fund basis, and that, among other
factors that may be relevant, are the following: fee levels, expense
subsidization, investment by PIM in research and analytical capabilities and
PIM's commitment and resource allocation to the Funds. The Trustees noted that
profitability also may be an indicator of the availability of any economies of
scale, although profitability may vary for other reasons particularly, for
example during the recent difficult periods for financial markets, as the level
of services was maintained notwithstanding a significant decline in PIM's fee
revenues from the Funds. Accordingly, the Trustees concluded that economies of
scale, if any, were being appropriately shared with the Fund.
Other Benefits
The Trustees considered the other benefits to each of PIM and the sub-adviser
from its relationship with the Fund. The Trustees considered the character and
amount of fees paid by the Fund, other than under the investment advisory
agreement, for services provided by PIM and its affiliates. The Trustees
further considered the revenues and profitability of PIM's businesses other
than the fund business. The Trustees also considered the benefits to the Fund
and to the sub-adviser and its affiliates from the use of "soft" commission
dollars generated by the Fund to pay for research and brokerage services. The
Trustees considered the intangible benefits to each of PIM and the sub-adviser
by virtue of its relationship with the Fund and the other Pioneer funds. The
Trustees
Pioneer Real Estate Shares | Annual Report | 12/31/11 39
concluded that the receipt of these benefits was reasonable in the context of
the overall relationship between each of PIM and the sub-adviser and the Fund.
Conclusion
After consideration of the factors described above as well as other factors,
the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, concluded that each of
the investment advisory agreement between PIM and the Fund and the sub-advisory
agreement between PIM and the sub-adviser, including the fees payable
thereunder, was fair and reasonable and voted to approve the proposed renewal
of each of the investment advisory agreement and the sub-advisory agreement for
the Fund.

PIONEER FUNDS
APPROVAL OF AUDIT, AUDIT-RELATED, TAX AND OTHER SERVICES
PROVIDED BY THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR
SECTION I - POLICY PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY
The Pioneer Funds recognize the importance of maintaining the independence of
their outside auditors. Maintaining independence is a shared responsibility
involving Pioneer Investment Management, Inc ("PIM"), the audit committee and
the independent auditors.
The Funds recognize that a Fund's independent auditors: 1) possess knowledge of
the Funds, 2) are able to incorporate certain services into the scope of the
audit, thereby avoiding redundant work, cost and disruption of Fund personnel
and processes, and 3) have expertise that has value to the Funds. As a result,
there are situations where it is desirable to use the Fund's independent
auditors for services in addition to the annual audit and where the potential
for conflicts of interests are minimal. Consequently, this policy, which is
intended to comply with Rule 210.2-01(C)(7), sets forth guidelines and
procedures to be followed by the Funds when retaining the independent audit firm
to perform audit, audit-related tax and other services under those
circumstances, while also maintaining independence.
Approval of a service in accordance with this policy for a Fund shall also
constitute approval for any other Fund whose pre-approval is required pursuant
to Rule 210.2-01(c)(7)(ii).
In addition to the procedures set forth in this policy, any non-audit services
that may be provided consistently with Rule 210.2-01 may be approved by the
Audit Committee itself and any pre-approval that may be waived in accordance
with Rule 210.2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) is hereby waived.
Selection of a Fund's independent auditors and their compensation shall be
determined by the Audit Committee and shall not be subject to this policy.
