congratulations on thinking of investment the moment u r deriving a source of income. before you start, it's recommended to  have at least 6 months worth of emergency funds though. now on to your questions, reits distributes dividends four (4) times a year, meaning every quarter. now bursa 1 lot=100 units and no longer 1000 units hence making it more affordable since RM1=1lot=100 units=RM100 on your side. look at accumulating small numbers at a consistent basis. more units=more dividends and capital appreciation potential. generally yield from reits are in 6-8% region which is about 2x the FD rate.

8%*(100%-10%tax on dividend distributed)

Assuming that most people say DY%, they mean gross Dividend Yield:

gross DY% = dividend yield based on the price paid BEFORE tax

To get the "$ in pocket" version of that, please remove 10% tax to get net DY%
Hm.. i thought i did state gross DY% and net DY% in my earlier posting. Waitaminit.. i did! Bro - English lar, read lar. Spoon feed meh

So des kah. Since DY% is already a % of the current price and assuming it's the current price U buy in:
IF price bought in $1.09
AND gross DY8% at that price
AND U bought in with $3,000 at the above time
Gross DY expected = $3,000 * 8%
Net DY expected = $3,000 * 8% *(100% -10% tax)

Note that your calculation was based on Units and mine was based on transaction $. I'm assuming U are calculating EXPECTED gross & net DY. Of course when U really receive the $, U then calculate yr actual DY% using:
a. Simple net DY%: Dividend Received / Total Cost of Transaction

b.DY% pa:
( (Dividend Received + Total Cost of Transaction) / Total Cost of Transaction )
^( 1 / ( (Current Date -Purchase Date)/364.25) )
-1
Derived from the ever handy S = P *(1+%)^years

You're spot on with the profits. REITs are just a type of stocks leh - traded on the same market and method

+DY% is USUALLY higher (some are lousy like normal stocks')
+thus prices are usually steadier
-thus unfortunately prices are usually steadier, it doesnt fall and rise as much as normal stocks

IMHO - the flux in normal stocks' price is what gets the gold, whereas the DY% in REITs keeps U nourished
If stocks' price dont flux, how to buy low & sell high?

FYI - from end 2008 / early 2009 after the recent 40%+ KLCI crash,
my REITs are making me only 20%+pa
VS
normal stocks like LPI & PBank which is making me 30%+pa to 50%+pa
all held till now - total returns (cap growth, splits, etc + dividends received)
