A niche corner of real estate is quietly delivering strong income - but is it built to last?

Michelle Martin explores whether purpose-built worker and student housing can offer investors stable, resilient returns in uncertain markets.

Hosted by Michelle Martin, with insights from Centurion Accommodation REIT’s Chief Investment Officer Ginny Ang, we unpack how the REIT beat its DPU forecast and what’s driving demand.

Plus, how rising interest rates and a focus on community well-being could shape long-term returns for investors.
