Property Shares to buy
It been a while since my last post, I appologise. It is a full time job keeping up with such a fast moving turbulent market. Having said that this presents some great property share investing opportunities.
One share that I have been keeping my eye on and topping up my holdings in is ING REAL ESTATE INCOME TRUST (IRET).
It is capitalised at its current share price of 45.75p at just over £150m. In its recent results to the end of June it reported net asset of 97p putting it on a current discount of over 50%. The great thing for Income Monkeys is that its current dividend which is 88% covered by income receipts mainly in the form of rent is 6.25p. With my ropey maths that equates to over 13.5% yield.
That to me is worth taking the risk that commercial property values fall further especially given that it already trades at such a discount to underlying asset values.
The share price has currently hit a trading range up from its year low of 41.75p in the mid to low 40p share mark. Any drops below 45p I will definitely be picking up more.
More ideas coming along soon...

The Income Monkey scours the worlds' financial markets looking for income generating investment opportunities.
The whole western world has experienced an asset price investment bubble over the last Millenium. This bubble is now set to burst in spetacular fashion.
What investors should be looking out for now is genuine income generating opportunities.
Historically the greatest returns from any successful investment have come from income whether this is in respect of shares, property or deposits. The asset price bubbles of firstly the dotcom era and then the property boom have made investors oblivious to the critical importance of the need to maximise income when making their investment decisions.
The era of asset price inflation is dead we herald the new age of The Income Monkey.
The Income Monkey is on a perpetual global search. Follow The Income Monkeys regular tips on the best income generating investments to be sure that you maximise your investment returns.
REMEMBER - anybody that BEATS the monkey with their own income generating investment IDEAS is guaranteed to win a BANANA.
What are you waiting for, post your ideas NOW!

Thanks Income Monkey! Why don't you tell us who you are though, I find taking advice from a sock puppet slightly disconcerting, albeit a monkey in a nicely tailored suit.
Hi Gavin, thanks for the comment. I'm afraid that if the Income Monkey gives up his anonymity his powers of prediction will be lost. It is written in the property share predicting ruines!
I would say in my defence; haven't we being taking advice from those muppets in the City for years with dubious results!
Hello Income monkey, can you provides me some details how to buy the share over the internet. I am interested in buying shares but I don't know how to do it. If will be greatful if you can provide me some information.
