Centurion Accommodation REIT, recognized as the first pure-play living accommodation REIT to be listed on the Singapore Exchange (SGX), faced notable institutional selling during its inaugural week of trading.<\/p>\n

The REIT successfully raised SGD771.0 million through its initial public offering (IPO), pricing its units at 88 cents each. Investors were attracted by a projected distribution yield of 7.47% for FY2026 and 8.11% for FY2027.<\/p>\n

On its debut trading day, Centurion Accommodation REIT opened at 98 Singapore cents and closed at 96 Singapore cents, reflecting a 9.1% increase from the IPO price.<\/p>\n

Despite the successful IPO and a positive start, Centurion Accommodation REIT became the most sold REIT by institutional investors during the week of 22 September 2025, with outflows totaling SGD19.7 million.<\/p>\n

In contrast, retail investors displayed a different sentiment, contributing SGD20.8 million in net inflows, making it the most purchased REIT among individual investors during the same week. This stark contrast between institutional selling and retail buying indicates differing perspectives on the REIT’s future prospects during its initial trading week.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Keppel DC REIT garnered modest institutional interest, recording SGD6.3 million in net inflows, making it the only REIT to appear among the top institutional net buy stocks for the week. However, it did not feature in the retail flow rankings.<\/p>\n

During the week of 22 September 2025, institutional investors were net sellers, with outflows amounting to SGD275.1 million. This figure represents a significant decrease from the previous week’s net selling of SGD584.5 million, indicating a reduction in institutional selling pressure.<\/p>\n

Conversely, retail investors continued their net buying trend, with inflows of SGD331.9 million, although this was slightly lower than the prior week’s net purchases of SGD363.8 million. The data suggests that while retail investor enthusiasm remains strong, institutional sentiment is stabilizing after a period of heavy selling.<\/p>\n

As of the latest trading session, Centurion Accommodation REIT was last recorded on the SGX at SGD0.965, which translates to a distribution yield of 6.81%, according to data from our Singapore REITs<\/a> table.<\/p>\n
