Real estate investment trusts (REITs) are an increasingly popular investment vehicle that allows investors to invest in a diversified portfolio of real estate assets. REITs are structured as trusts, with the income generated from the underlying properties being passed on to the investors as dividends.

This article will look at 3 reasons why you need to invest in REITs in Malaysia. Investing in REITs can provide investors with a steady income stream and exposure to the real estate market without the need to purchase and manage real estate properties themselves.

Why You Need To Invest In REITs#1 Diversification Portfolio

One of the main advantages of investing in Malaysia’s REITs is that it provides investors with a diversified portfolio of real estate assets. REITs invest in various real estate properties, including office buildings, shopping malls, and residential properties. This provides investors with exposure to a range of different real estate markets and helps to reduce the risk of investing in a single property or asset class.

Why You Need To Invest In REITs#2 Stable And Predictable

Another advantage of investing in Malaysia’s REITs is that they offer a stable and predictable source of income. REITs must distribute at least 90% of their taxable income to their shareholders as dividends. This means investors can expect regular dividend payments from their REIT investments.

Additionally, because REITs are typically invested in income-producing properties, such as rental properties or commercial buildings, the income generated from these properties can provide a steady income stream for investors.

Why You Need To Invest In REITs#3 Cost-Efficient

Investing in Malaysia’s REITs is also a cost-effective way to invest in real estate. REITs are traded on stock exchanges, just like stocks, which makes them easy to buy and sell. Additionally, because REITs are passively managed, they typically have lower management fees than actively managed funds.

This means that investors can benefit from the expertise of real estate professionals without having to pay high fees.

Examples Of Malaysia’s REIT

Malaysia’s growing and diverse real estate market provides investors various REIT options. Some of the REITs listed on Bursa Malaysia, Malaysia’s stock exchange, include:-

  1. Sunway REIT, which owns a portfolio of properties including retail, office, hospitality and healthcare assets;
  2. Axis REIT, which specializes in industrial and logistics properties; and
  3. KLCC REIT, which owns properties such as the iconic Petronas Twin Towers.

Investing in Malaysia’s REITs also exposes investors to a fast-growing economy. Malaysia is one of the fastest-growing economies in Southeast Asia, with a GDP growth rate of 4.3% in 2019. The country has a well-developed infrastructure, a skilled workforce, and a growing middle class, which makes it an attractive destination for foreign investment.

In addition to exposing investors to diverse real estate assets, Malaysia’s REITs are also highly liquid. REITs are traded on stock exchanges, meaning they can be bought and sold quickly and easily. Additionally, because REITs are typically invested in income-producing properties, they are less volatile than other investments, such as individual stocks.

In conclusion, investing in Malaysia’s REITs can provide investors with a diversified portfolio of real estate assets, a stable source of income, and exposure to a fast-growing economy. REITs are also cost-effective, highly liquid, and easy to invest in. Now that you know why you need to invest in REITs, as with any other investment, it is important to conduct thorough research and seek professional advice before investing in Malaysia’s REITs or any other investment vehicle.
