I'm a fresh grad and started a full-time job. Have no experience in investing and averse to risk. Planning to invest a portion of my savings in Singapore REITs. Any advice?

Starting your investment journey with REITs is smart for a fresh grad like you! It's great you're considering Singapore REITs. Since you're risk-averse, focus on established REITs with stable dividend yields. Research thoroughly, and remember diversification is key. Treat it like a game of Uno Online, strategize your moves carefully. Don't put all your eggs in one basket .https://unoonlinefree.com

Just get started. I contributed $7k to my CPF SA account until I attained the FRS. Along the way, I got myself involved in investing in some robo-advisor portfolios and even crypto. You build up knowledge as you go along

Since active stock/REIT picking is not successfully possible I'd recommend to invest into one of the 3 S-REIT ETFs, f.ex. Lion Philipp S-REIT ETF. Singapore is known (pre Covid) for the highest yields (possibly reduced if inflation-adjusted).

Better diversification often reduces risks,

so global/U.S./Europe or Asia/China REIT ETFs could be a safer play.

my 'food for thought' here. :-)

Perhaps it will be good to consider the amount of risk you are willing to take, if you are considering about investing in REITs, given this volatile period with declining rental collections and challenging businesses survivals.

One way to manage the risk can be through moderating the quantity of reits purchased, by taking the nominal amount divided by the price difference between your purchase price & stop loss amount.

Some platforms to purchase REITs may be through bank brokers like DBS vickers or online platforms like FSMone, or new channels like Syfe for REITs

Otherwise, keeping the 20k within your jump start account might not be too bad a deal given the stability and guaranteed interest, keeping risk minimal.
