About this episode

The episode discusses whether property should be a major part of an investment portfolio based on Singapore's property data.

Property has long been regarded as one of Singapore's most popular ways to build wealth. But how should investors evaluate property alongside a diversified investment portfolio? In this episode, Glenn, our Senior Portfolio Manager, joins Joyce, our Client Adviser, to unpack decades of Singapore property data and explore whether property should be part of your portfolio. Glenn also shares why not every property delivers the same returns, whether leverage is really property's biggest advantage, and whether skilled property investors can consistently beat the market. To better appreciate the discussion, you may wish to begin with Glenn's article, which provides the context behind this conversation: https://providend.com/property-investment-singapore-diversified-portfolio/ Music courtesy of ItsWatR.
