A portion of my overall investment pot is assigned to UK REITS and Property/Infrastructure ITs, I will be adding to this shortly and am looking to diversify from my existing holdings. I'd be very interested to hear from fellow investors which of these they hold and any reasons why they selected them both to broaden my knowledge and horizons! All input and opinion appreciated  |

No problem, although it is an embarrassingly short list and no doubt open to critique but it was only ever a starting point which I intend to add to and diversify.
1. Picton Property
2. NewRiver Retail
3. Warehouse
4. HICL Infrastructure
5. TRIG Renewables

Yes to TRIG I also hold Sirius which is German office/factory space with dual holding in SA/London very like a Reit
I think we had this debate last year?

I guess we did but then again, we're a year on and I'm buying again!! Sirius are an interesting proposition, although my initial basis for REITs was exposure to UK property in it's various guises as my Vanguard equities portfolio is only 5% UK. Albeit you aren't enthusiastic about this with Jezza leading the opposition! macq thanks for a couple of new suggestions there, Regional catches the eye and Unite could be of interest when I escape my student exposure on Lendy zlb I would suggest sarahcount is having a giggle with her suggestion which is the illegitimate birth child of PM

The old marxist believes in a number of things, while his base wants housing to be cheaper and more easily available. Hence one simple action will be to force just that, property prices are maintained by our "protect the green belt" unique proposition, the second element that holds up housing prices is non-uk based land ownership and multiple home ownership removing these will allow prices to plummet at which point, REIT values will also plummet.
Depending where we are in the cycle a similar debate will occur within the Conservative party, this also puts uk based REIT in risk, note it also puts many P2P property based loans at risk. In the fight between capital and labour, capital is in danger of losing out.

Actually holding anything that is valued in sterling is a worry. Since 1945 successive governments have allowed sterling to devalue year after year. There is no reason to expect that to stop soon.

while its true govt's may have to wrestle with home ownership many IT/REIT/ pension funds are in commercial property etc and are having to deal with problems already such as a weaker high street but hopefully will adapt

I'm rejuvenating this discussion as a combination of poor performance and investment elsewhere has left my REIT holding looking rather low.
Does anyone see any value anywhere in the current environment? I guess care homes, student accomodation and retail are out of favour. Intu being the prime example!
Although my NewRiver holdings have been decimated so badly it's tempting to purchase at the current price as they aim to offload retail space for residential developments. 2.5sq ft ear marked for this purpose. Thoughts?
I hold TRIG as a Green Infrastructure IT which looks like a promising field if the world rebuilds in that direction and perhaps warehouse REITS as shopping moves further online?

I started thinking about this (not very hard though) a couple of days ago. There will be a point where distressed assets are put up for sale at an attractive price. I'm not sure I'd want to go so far as to invest directly in such a fund, but maybe if there was a global REIT (or some equivalent) I might be tempted to dabble, or fill up an ISA allowance if things are still going sideways when we get to the next tax year?
