Why I say that invest in REIT is very safe and low risk? REIT offer an average return of 6-8% annually for their shareholder. The rental received from the property will pay to investor by semi-annual or quarter basis.
Let me show an example. For Atrium REIT, it listed on March 2007.
Income distribution announced on:
18-07-2007 - 2.0 cents
19-10-2007 - 2.2 cents
17-01-2008 - 2.3 cents
Atrium REIT already paid out 3 quarters income distribution as 6.5 cents. So, its annual return is 6.5/3X4= 8.67 (equally to 8.67 cents)
Now, as at 19 January 2008, Atrium REIT closed at 98.5 cents.
Return for Atrium REIT = 8.67/98.5
= 8.8%
As compare to FD (fixed deposit), the interst rates is only 3.7% annually. When we invest on REIT, we can receive 8.8% which is 5.1% higher than FD rates. For future, the increase of rental rates will increase the income distribution for investors.
So, why not we invest on REIT rather than put our money in FD.

The Sarawak shipper's future in transporting palm oil from east Malaysia to various parts of the region “remains bright” on rising demand for the commodity, MIMB Investment Bank said in its strategy report for 2008.

YNH Property Sell Its Menara YNH
YNH Property Bhd is finalising the sale of the proposed 45-storey iconic Menara YNH at Kuala Lumpur's Jalan Sultan Ismail for RM1.5bil.
Sources said investors from Australia, Singapore and a Middle-Eastern country were likely to form a consortium to purchase the building, which is scheduled for completion in 2012.
“YNH Property is also close to finalising a deal to secure a partner to jointly construct the building.
Earlier this month, YNH Property announced the commencement of earthworks for the project and the allocation of RM4.2mil to relocate the water pipes and manholes at Jalan Sultan Ismail to make way for the tower project.
Menara YNH, to be built on three acres next to the Shangri-La Hotel, is designed to accommodate a single office block and a retail centre.
Each floor plate will have an area of 55,000 sq ft, which is among the largest in the world.
Menara YNH will have a total net lettable area of about 1.2 million sq ft.
The sale of Menara YNH is expected to have a significant impact on the YNH group, which has a share capitalisation of over RM1bil, based on the current share price of RM2.81 per share.
Over the next two years, YNH Property expects its projects, such as 163 Service Suites in Kuala Lumpur and Ceriaan Kiara in Mont' Kiara, to generate over RM400mil in revenue.
