Bro RM500k I cannot afford. And it's not worth paying so much for house (after reading ASSI blog). All buying at RM500k+, but how many can dispose off at RM700k+? Who want to buy? If renting + all expenses, does it give more return than s-reit?[SIZE=7]

That's why now no longer looking at houses to buy (helping family to look but still looking at lelong houses ). Now more of looking at what reits can buy.

Reits I can afford. Houses tunggu dapat permanent job.

MY MOTTO is... simple..

a favourite ‘buy’ pick among brokers

means its time to sell.

Do not forget the game is still DEMAND and SUPPLY.

But if keeping long term best is do nothing and just keep.

But my personal reasons.. i want slowly reduce my DBS portfolio to put in MKE.
I lazy to press the SECURE DEVICE thing...and I can only buy sell when sitting in front of office desktop
because of this DEVICE.

I am also having huge FUND idling too... but i do not want to rush..
as SREITS are really super high. cannot find safe 7% ....

elea, you really geng, haha... did you sold at 1.07?

sigh didnt manage to sell FLT when it was easily 1.07-1.075, today 1.05 only...

but whats the rationale behind the reasoning? Isnt a "buy" pick will entice more retail investors to come in instead of going out?

Wahh,... bro is really advanced,... now comparing between props and SG REITs,... I did this comparison 10 years ago... and I preferred SG REITs. Easier to dispose, and will get currency appreciation too.

And 'can get SG investor friends and girl-friends too',.... haha,...

But on the serious side,... I'm still keeping my commercial properties, have not disposed, these props will give me stability of income,...

Tomorrow maybe got chance to collect Accordia...

ex date?

Yup. Couple with bad report from last week. Should be a sell down tomorrow. Hopefully can reach 0.67. If can I grab.

Fat hopes I think.

i previously did a comparison on buying property in KL or M/S Reits instead.

Property

Pro: High appreciation

Con: Who to sell later? tenant problem, cukai pintu, cukai tanah, insurance premium etc...

M/S Reit

Pro: Liquidity and consistent dividend (as in money keep coming not the up and down)

Con:    loss making in terms of share prices?

p/s: those who owns property don't shoot me oh. 

Unless one is investing in reit with leverage, if not, you can't really compare between them.

Reit also can have high appreciation if one bought at right time, typically buying reit at distressed time.
Now probably can't have too much appreciation, as most reit are fairly/fully valued across.

The discount of reit price was way huge than property during market panic time specifically during 2008.

One is apple, one is orange.
It depends on individual preference.
If both also like, then I don't see why not.

yes i agree on the fact that it's actually comparing apple and orange as both serves different function.

so an interesting question for all members here. 

if a friend were to ask if you own a property but you don't own any property, only reits. does it consider/technically that you own a property and comparable with a person who owns a property?

long story short

A owns a residential property = property owner

B owns MY reits = property owner?  or the correct term should be labelled as a shareholder instead?

Shareholder is more a right term.

You can label it as pseudo-property owner if you wish. 

Precisely. Fall only to 0.70. Haiz...

doesn't even cover the interest if you purchase before XD.

let's see, this will go on without interest for 6 months

is CapitalCom Trust an attractive buy now at 1.615?
