"The Reit will be able to draw on Keppel Capital's expertise in the management of listed Reits and strong relationships with Asian investors, as well as KBS' established investment and asset management experience in US commercial real estate," Ms Tan said.

Keppel-KBS US Reit's distribution yield for 2018 is estimated to be 6.8 per cent, with an expected distribution yield of 7.2 per cent for 2019, reflecting a total return of 12.6 per cent.

The Reit's yield growth is driven by built-in rental escalations ranging from 2-3 per cent for about 97.5 per cent of the portfolio leases, the opportunity to renew expiring leases at potentially higher market rent rates, as well as potential growth in portfolio occupancy.
