With only 40 REITs listed in Singapore, this shows that REITs are gaining significance and traction amongst investors. REITs are popular tool for investors seeking stable dividends and building their passive income.
Lured by the high yields, many retail investors mistakenly thought that REIT is simple – relying on a combination of High Yield, Low Price-to-Book Ratio and Low Gearing to pick their REITs.
However, many found themselves faced with a slow and painful declines in REIT prices over the years. Some also felt betrayed by the REITs they supported – rights issues after rights issues on their portfolio were called – forcing them to fork out additional cash or face dilution. Any of these may rob an investor of their dividend income.
