Passive Income - Rental vs Dividend Yield

Sundaytimes, Property, Mat 24, 2009

Said Knight Frank's director of research and consultancy, Mr Nicholas Mak: "There will be short-term adjustments, but long-term, yields tend to be stable at 2.5 to 3.5% percents on a net level.

For me, rental as passive income may not be a good strategy as a dividend yield of 3.5% from the top 20 SG blue stocks are not difficult to find and to accumulate for long term investment.

E.g. DBS currently caught in the "shit" is still giving me quarterly dividend yield of 1.8% or 7.2% per annum. At the moment, unlikely to consider the strategy of using rental as passive income. Cheers!
