This is the first time that I totally agreed with your view points on REITs. Good Work! I am now parking my fund in SREITs for the higher Dividends. Hope that REITs will stay low for the time being.
I don't think REIT prices will go back to the old days anytime soon. Most of those prices were during the 0% interest borrowing days. For REIT prices to get back to prior highs, the driver must be rental growth. However, the most resilient names are also the ones who have the majority of their portfolio in Singapore-based properties. Rent in Singapore is already at all time highs, and any future rental growth will likely be muted. It's really a long game of patience. If you're an income investor relying on dividends to fund you in retirement, you shouldn't have to worry. But if you're young and looking to grow your portfolio, then the risk-reward ratio of REITs is fairly low, and you'll likely come out ahead investing in an S&P500 index fund.
One thing you are missing is that the financial positions of these REITs are very different from back in 2020. Interest coverage ratios have weakened substantially to the point where MAS has to propose minimum ICR of 1.5x instead of 2.5x. Even the blue-chip REITs have been significant deterioration. All this is happening in the backdrop of normalised financial conditions. While borrowing costs have gone up, they are just going back to normal levels before the era of low interest rates. What happens when a real financial crisis hits? Just look at REITs in 2008 to have a preview of what happens if financial markets go into turmoil.
Singapore REITs is a game of patience, belief and knowing why you are investing in it. For me it’s about getting solid dividend payouts at an attractive price to build another stream of passive income. As of now, it’s definitely a bargain for some of the BLUE CHIP REITs, which I will continue to DCA. Thanks Josh for the views and suggestions, which is most helpful.
im loosing conviction on SG reits.....been buying for the last 3 years and even with dividends, Im still 12% in the red.....the money would have returned much better yield if deployed to the US equities.... hindsight is always 20/20 :(
Q4-24 looks atrocious for both Mapletree. About 9-13%both fall in DPUs while others are flat or stagging recoveries such as Keppel DC, OUE etc based on current announcements thus far. Too big lead to diversification out of Singapore may also be a problem.
@joshconsultancy Yeah you are right. It looks poor when compared to the smaller SG keppel dc and OUE which saw a bounce off their share price vs Mapletrees even though it is a better sponsor. One really wonder if adding diversification was the right thing to do especially MPACT which is still suffering from the North Asia merger. It was put it bluntly to save North Asia.
just a thought on the foreign property investments, if you took a mortgage for it, now that the SGD is stronger, would it not just mean you now have a "discount" on your outstanding mortgage that is denominated in the weaker currency?
Disagree, i believe theres little change in overall consumer behaviour. Those who love JB will love going in more. Those who dont want will still consume in SG
Today Business Times...good times for Reits are coming 😁 "MAS eases monetary policy settings, lowers 2025 core inflation forecast to between 1% and 2%"

Fully aware of 2008. I was investing back then. 2008 credit crunch is the reason why reits space out loan repayment periods
Any view on Sofi stock?
nice comparisons and easy to understand...thanks!
No probs happy to share =)

"game of patience, belief and knowing why you are investing in it" - well said =)
Looks like REITs and banks are inversely correlated, good to have a bit of both for a balanced portfolio.

Dpu grew for MIT
Latest MPACT inched up abit Q/Q but yes Y/y for them is still downtrend unfortunately

Josh: Thanks for your videos. BTW: It's has "come" down, not has "came" down.
No probs and noted =)
just a thought on the foreign property investments, if you took a mortgage for it, now that the SGD is stronger, would it not just mean you now have a "discount" on your outstanding mortgage that is denominated in the weaker currency?
Yes but you paid capital as downpayment for the asset. That lost value.
Your translated rent income is SGD also drops
@@joshconsultancy Agree. There's currency risk either way, whether to pay off or take a long tenure mortgage
RTS next yr will impact retail REITs by a lot , not immediate but gradually
Disagree, i believe theres little change in overall consumer behaviour.
Those who love JB will love going in more. Those who dont want will still consume in SG
V Good video.
Only one i agree with is MINT
agree with you on the reits in this video. Thanks
J tan v goooood pl have more of such thanks
how about Capitand Investment and Nikko Reits ETF?
I view Capitaland investment well. China prop needs to pick up for it to recover in sentiment
With the Johore-Singapore special economic zone, can share how it impacts singapore industrial reits.
Theres always competition. No worries about it =)
Only ParkwayLife REIT is still standing strong. 💪
Only this and I don’t like the other REITs or trusts too. Quite stagnant also
hi david huang!
Today Business Times...good times for Reits are coming 😁
"MAS eases monetary policy settings, lowers 2025 core inflation forecast to between 1% and 2%"
Dont fall in love with reits
Diversify...Diversify
Few ppl will be interested in reits now. but after it goes up, ppl will start to ask again whether the boat has left 🤣
Absolutely 😅
Just take it as a passive income stream while wait for interest rates to drop
