Axis REIT set to breach RM2b mark

Axis Real Estate Investment Trust Managers (Axis REIT), which has 30 properties in its trust worth about RM1.5bn, expects to surpass the RM2bn mark with the acquisition of five new properties for RM472m this year. Axis REIT Managers Bhd (ARMB) CEO Datuk Stewart LaBrooy said based on the projected unit holdings, it expects the five properties to yield an additional 2.1 sen per annum to its income distribution per unit (DPU) for 2015.

"Portfolio growth has always been a core strategy of Axis REIT. We have demonstrated this by increasing our portfolio size from five to 30 assets over the past nine years and this is expected to expand to 35 assets by the end of 2014. However, we do not buy real estate for the sake of growing," he said. (BT)
