At what stage in my investing journey should I start looking and investing in REITs? Assuming i'm new to investing with little experience. Also, is there any market conditions that would make REITs more favourable in your opinion?

It would be good to start as early as possible. this is to alow compounding to take place. A low interest rate would allow reits to thrive as they rely on gearing.

REITs can generally be a favorable component of total asset investment strategies, with regular welcomed payouts (if everything goes well ...), also, particularly the Singapore S-REITs (currently have relatively high and tax free) yields. But (as with single stocks) how could compared to finance professionals the retail investor realistically know what REIT will be successful in the future. I'd recommend not to buy REITs but REIT ETFs, particularly one of the 3 in Singapore ("S-REITs"), with Lion-Phillip's one being the most concentrated on Singapore allocation. The global ETF: REET maybe could be a good choice as also some U.S. focused ones like VNQ or european focused IQQP.
