Amidst the tumultuous economic landscape marked by high inflation rates and soaring interest rates, Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) stand steadfast as a promising avenue for dividends. Despite facing headwinds, the REIT sector is poised for a boost as interest rates are expected to moderate, relieving some pressure on distributions. Income-seeking investors seeking stable returns should turn their focus towards REITs boasting quality portfolios backed by robust sponsors. These attributes, bolstered by attractive high yields, position such REITs as valuable long-term investment opportunities.
Here, we unveil four Singapore REITs embodying these desirable characteristics, offering distribution yields of 4.7% or more:
