What REIT industry would you think is the safest to start with for beginner investors?

I have 10k investible cash and thinking how to out that into a diversified portfolio or just start with one counter, eg CapitaMall Trust (CMT) which seems to be the most popular amongst my colleagues now.

I believe that the safest to start with will be retail reits that are based in Singapore such as CapitaMall Trust and Frasers Centrepoint Trust.

However, do look at the valuations as I feel that it is still on the high side.

REITs are quite affordable and good for beginner investors who are stuggling with good capital for investment.

At present 38 REITs are listed on the Singapore stock market. They can be subdivided into these sectors: office, retail, industrial, hospitality and healthcare.

If you are looking to invest in REIT industry safely, you can look for industrial or office REITS. Hospitality and Retail sectors are next.

Currently these REITS are looking good for beginner investment :

Dasin Retail Trust (SGX: CEDU)
OUE Commercial REIT (SGX: TS0U)
Sabana REIT (SGX: M1GU)

With 10k in seed money I would like to start a portfolio of dividend yielding stocks such as Singtel, REITs etc. Any advice for this investing strategy for a new investor and beginner?

Should a beginner investor who hasn't invested but wants to start investing now consider REITs? Is this too risky a financial asset class to start investing in? Or should I consider more passive ones?

How should I start investing? Is DCA-ing into Syfe a good option? If so which portfolio would be ideal for a beginner investor with a mid-risk profile?

What are your thoughts on the stock market currently? Do you think it's a good time to invest and would you recommend a beginner investor to enter now?

What do you think are the most common mistakes that you see beginner investors do and what would you like to advise them if you could?
