Yesterday afternoon (03 August 2023), I had the honour of being invited by Ms Olivia Higgins from MooMoo Singapore to be on the latest episode of the ‘Playing with FIRE’, a monthly show by MooMoo Singapore, hosted by Ms Higgins herself, where she interview financial experts on their financial journey.

During the half hour session, I shared about:

  • My investment journey, and how ‘The Singaporean Investor’ came about (it was from 2 problems that I face as a financial newbie)
  • 2 main concerns that REIT investors have at the moment, and my views about them
  • The 4 things I look at when it comes to shortlisting REITs to add on to my investment portfolio
  • 1 biggest misconception that people have about the Singapore market
  • And more…

For those of you who have missed out on the ‘live’ session yesterday, you can check out the replay of it below:

Correction: During the video, when I was asked about how young investors can get started, I mentioned the can start off by investing in the Straits Times Index (STI) ETF, and that they only need to buy 100 shares to get started – I made a mistake there, because with effect from 17 January 2022, for ETFs listed on the Singapore Exchange, the minimum is just 1 share – meaning you only need S$3+, plus brokerage fees, to start investing in the STI ETF. Apologies for the error.

I hope you will find the sharing in the ‘live’ session yesterday useful – appreciate it if you could give the video a ‘like’ if you have learned something from it!

Stop Spending Hours Reading REIT Reports Every Quarter!

What if you could assess a REIT's portfolio occupancy, debt profile, valuation, and overall health in less than 30 seconds - without having to comb through a single quarterly report?

That's the problem the REIT Screener was built to solve.

Developed through a collaboration between ShareInvestor and The Singaporean Investor, the REIT Screener consolidates many of the key metrics and indicators I personally use when analysing REITs into one easy-to-use platform. Instead of spending hours extracting data manually every earnings season, you can now monitor the REITs you own and research new opportunities in just a few clicks.

If you're serious about REIT investing but don't have the time to manually track quarterly developments, the REIT Screener could be the shortcut you've been looking for:
