I'm also increasing my % of holdings on REITs

The REITs that I increase my weightage on are:
Starhill REITs P40U (Because of the upward revisions in rents)
FarEast REITs Q5T (Pure SG hospitality play, good price/NAV ratio)

Hi

i am a newbie to REIT purchase and wish to get some information on the it. i had read some on REIT and understand REIT is meant for getting dividends for the invested money but i see the chart it seem goes up and down. So am i correct that one can only make money if one get the REIT share at the "cheap" cost and then hold on for the dividends and not aiming for capital gain..sorry i am confused..

Buying REITs is like buying landed property.

You want to buy a property as cheap as possible and receiving rents as high as possible. You also want to make sure the guy who's managing your property for you is diligent, also its locations and the background of the people renting from you.

Apply the same logic and you are 1/2 way there. Theres is no fixed rule on investing in REITs... it all depends on what you are looking for in return.

Fed Warns of Vulnerabilities Building in Commercial Real Estate
By Craig Torres and Jeanna Smialek - Jun 21, 2016, 10:00:00 PM

The Federal Reserve warned that prices in the commercial real-estate market may have run up too far too fast.

Valuations in commercial real estate “appear increasingly vulnerable to negative shocks, as CRE prices have continued to outpace rental income,” the Fed said in its semiannual Monetary Policy Report to Congress. The Fed noted that prices exceed their pre-crisis peaks by some measures.

The Fed included a special section on financial stability risks in the report, which accompanies Chair Janet Yellen’s testimony. The report said that even given “moderate’’ financial vulnerabilities, risks of external shocks, such as the U.K.’s possible exit from the European Union, pose stability risks.

The report also highlighted issues related to credit exposures to the energy sector, money-market mutual funds and stock valuations.

The central bank said price-to-earnings ratios on a forward-looking basis for stocks have increased to a level “well above” their median for the past 30 years.

“Although equity valuations do not appear to be rich relative to Treasury yields, equity prices are vulnerable to rises in term premiums to more normal levels, especially if a reversion was not motivated by positive news about economic growth,” the Fed said.

The Fed said “some structural vulnerabilities are expected to persist” in money-market mutual funds even after Securities and Exchange Commission reforms go fully into effect in October.

“Leverage for the non-financial corporate sector has stayed elevated and indicators of corporate credit quality, though still solid overall, continued to show signs of deterioration for lower-rated firms, especially in the energy sector,” the Fed said in its report.

Strong U.S. bank capital positions contributed to the resilience of the financial system, the Fed said.

Reits are subjected to fear & they may drop & swing back like any stock.
Of course aim for capital gain + dividend.

Some already missed the latest IPO Frasers L&i with its capital gain of 3 cents +low $2 fee + 6-7% yield.

Why is it a miss when it is only a few days old?

 

[OngHuatHuat]

Missed out on the commission that could be saved only.

The 3 cents increment is close to neglible, easily wiped out if the whole market drop.
