S-REIT Investment Blog: Li Ka-Shing-Linked ARA Eyes Up To $640 Million Yuan-IPO In October -Sources

Welcome

Welcome to my investment blog where I share with you my analysis of REITs in Singapore.

I hope that my investment philosophy will bring me a steady stream of income apart from my job. I am aiming for at least $3,000 per month which can sustain the current expenses of myself and my family.

Do enjoy reading my blog and post any comments that you have. I welcome them because it is a time to learn from each other.

When I am looking at investing in REIT, here are some of the guidelines that I am looking at. Feel free to comment on it. I am willing to listen to ideas.

-> at least 8% yield.
-> Price that is lower than its NAV.
-> Low gearing (if possible)
-> High secured NAV.

Current Dividend income is $3,800/month.

This is something worth considering as we will be investing directly in Renminbi as well as properties there. Let's keep an eye open on this and wait for its prospectus to come before we analyze whether it is a great opportunity.

Saving some money for such opportunities as I believe more is coming.
