With bond yield rising and Fed rate hike incoming, reit won't have good time ahead.

So be prepared to hold long term if interested in it.
Reit price won't "explode" to upside like last time when QE at its height time.

Waiting at 1.25...

Put buy at 1.30?

IGBreit has a lot institutional investors and foreign investors as compared UOAreit, or in other word the liquidity of shares is more.

When you have only a few investors and those investors are not keen to sell, then there is little seller in the market.
No seller in the market, price won't drop.

Reit generally has dropped across for the last few months already.

Do you think the buyer who can buy ten or hundred million worth property will simply source through an ordinary property agent?

I find MQreit yield quite attractive currently.
7.5% net, if dropped to RM1, then 8%.

As long as there is "stability" in term of lease, 8% is an attractive figure even for office space.

Much better than individual bought residential that only yield about 2% only.

Self owning property is tedious and liabilities.

Buy reit, do nothing, sitting home waiting dividend.

Self owned property,
liabilities to pay assessment, maintenance fee, insurance, liabilities for repairing/renovation cost, touch up cost, search for tenants, if unlucky need to deal problematic tenants that may spoil your house, no pay, then really headache.

Reit also got wonderful capital gain as well if one buy at right time.

I taught Bangsar is one of prime location for office space or no?

Those properties at prime location generally will be the last hit.
The worry is always those secondary outskirt location.

Dividend coming soon...

Normally it did inch up a little.

More than 7.5 ~8% yield only consider top up.

The chance is almost zero for rate hike, with oil price sliding and economy slowdown.

In fact, if RM stablise, a cut within later this year, may have a high possibility as well.

CMMT result also quite disappointing as well.

Should/may be.

Seem ok with most lease won't be expiring at least in 2 years time.
So a rather stable dividend within 2 years down the road can be foreseen.

With economy slowdown and oil price crashing hard, the immediate risk for reit is ability to renew their expired lease.

Simple, if FD rate is 4.5% and heading higher, reit become less attractive.

Reit yield should be always command about 200~300 basis point above (or in other word) FD rate offering, to justify the risk taken.

With potential easing bias by BNM, it provides some support to those reit who have stable lease one.

IGBreit is going to release quarter result, and its dividend soon.
