If your interest just piqued when reading “monthly dividend stocks,” you might be preparing yourself for a letdown. That’s because the vast majority of monthly dividend stocks aren’t worth owning. Fortunately, there are exceptions. People sometimes debate whether or not a REIT can be classified as a stock. An argument can be made either way, but it's irrelevant. The only thing we care about is profits.
Realty Income Corp. (O) is a REIT that joined the S&P 500 on April 6. More importantly, it has raised its dividend 77 times since 1970. It has also paid 536 consecutive monthly dividends. Here's how LTC Properties Inc. (LTC) describes itself: “Operates as a health care real estate investment trust (REIT) in the United States. It invests in senior housing and long term healthcare properties, including skilled nursing properties, assisted living properties, independent living properties, and combinations through mortgage loans, property lease transactions, and other investments.”
