REIT WHAT?

What is a REIT?

A quick recap for anyone just joining us: What the heck is a REIT? It’s short for Real Estate Investment Trust. REIT is an investment vehicle that allows you to invest in income-generating real estate properties without having to manage them yourself.

Not only that, but investing in a REIT can also provide you with a steady stream of passive income, as they’re required by law to distribute at least 90% of their taxable income to shareholders in the form of dividends. 

The best part of a REIT it that it give your stock portfolio exposure to various types of real estate properties such as office buildings, malls, apartment block and industrial complexes.

REITs lets you receive the consistent income of owning real estate WITHOUT the hassle of owning physical properties. So, if you want to build wealth through real estate, REITs might just be the perfect fit for you.

Alright, let’s start with the first stock on our list – Prologis, Inc. (PLD). Did you know that Prologis has been paying dividends since way back in 1998? That’s over two decades of consistent income for its shareholders.

But that’s not all – Prologis also offers portfolio diversification, with a global portfolio of high-quality logistics properties spanning across 19 countries, totaling over 980 million square feet.

MINI QUIZ 1:  

Are you ready for a math challenge? Let’s sharpen our math skills with a word problem featuring our main character, Alex.

Alex wants to invest in Prologis, a real estate investment trust that pays an annual dividend of USD$3.48 per share. He can only afford to buy one share each month, and he wants to know how much he will earn in dividends after 3 months, assuming the share price and dividend remain constant.

First, calculate how many shares Alex will own in three months. Since he can only buy one share each month, he will own a total of three shares.

Now, let’s calculate how much Alex will earn in dividends. Prologis pays dividends once every 3 months, so Alex will receive one dividend payment in three months.

To calculate the dividend payment for each share, we divide the annual dividend by the number of quarterly payments in a year, which is 4.

So, Prologis pays a dividend of USD$0.87 per share every quarter (USD$3.48 / 4).

QUESTION: HOW MUCH DOES ALEX EARN IN DIVIDEND IN 3 MONTHS?

ANSWER TO QUIZ #2:

A dividend payment is a portion of a company’s earnings that is distributed to its shareholders. It is usually paid out quarterly.

Now, let’s move on to the word problem at hand. We are given that Rei buys 1 share of a stock every month, and that the cost of 1 share is $90. We are also given that the annual dividend payment is $4.88 per year.

After 3 months, Rei will have 3 shares of the stock, and she will receive a dividend payment. The total dividend payment for these 3 shares can be calculated as follows:

Total dividend payment 

= (Number of shares) x (Dividend per share)

= 3 x ($4.88/12)

= $1.22

Therefore, the answer to SUM1 is $1.22.

After 6 months, Rei will have 6 shares of the stock, and she will receive a second dividend payment. The total dividend payment for these 6 shares can be calculated as follows:

Total dividend payment 

= (Number of shares) x (Dividend per share)

= 6 x ($4.88/12)

= $2.44

Therefore, the answer to SUM2 is $2.44.

ANSWER TO QUIZ #3:

First, let’s calculate the monthly dividend payment for one share:

$1.47/12 months = $0.1225 per month

So, after one month, Sol will receive a dividend payment of $0.1225 for his one share.

After two months, Sol will have two shares, and the dividend payment will be:

2 shares x $0.1225 per share = $0.245

So, SUM2 = $0.245

After three months, Sol will have three shares, and the dividend payment will be:

3 shares x $0.1225 per share = $0.3675

So, SUM3 = $0.3675

To find the total amount of dividends Sol receives after three months, we need to add up the dividend payments from each month:

SUM1 + SUM2 + SUM3 = $0.1225 + $0.245 + $0.3675 = $0.735

Therefore, Sol will receive a total of $0.735 in dividends after three months.
