Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are an important means of real estate securitization. Real estate securitization is a financial transaction process in which real estate investments with low liquidity and non-securities are directly transformed into securities assets in the capital market. Real estate securitization includes two basic forms: real estate project financing securitization and real estate mortgage securitization.
Units of real estate investment trusts, like other securities listed on the Singapore Exchange, are bought and sold at market-driven prices.
