For investors looking to earn a monthly income from stocks, one sector stands out: real estate. Due to the fact that tenants have to pay rent on a monthly basis, some real estate investment trusts (REITs) have decided to reward investors with monthly dividends. In this article, we are going to take a look at the potential three best monthly dividend REITs for 2017.
With a pass-through tax structure and mandatory distributions, REITs have become some of the highest-yielding instruments in today’s stock market. The three monthly dividend REITs we are about to look at have an average dividend yield of 5.05%. To give you some perspective, the average dividend yield of all S&P 500 companies right now is just 1.92%. When it comes to monthly dividend REITs, one name stands out: Realty Income Corp (NYSE:O). EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR) is a real estate investment trust headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri. The last one on the list of monthly REIT stocks is LTC Properties Inc (NYSE:LTC), a real estate investment trust specializing in seniors housing and healthcare properties.
