The baby boomers are at an interesting juncture of their lives: Too old to rock ‘n’ roll, too young to die. This is a colorful way to describe the years of late career and early retirement, but it is nothing to take lightly. The aging of the baby boomers is the single biggest mega-trend facing America — and one you can play in several ways, though my preference is for real estate investment trusts (REITs).
The retirement and aging of the boomers will create fantastic opportunities, particularly in products and services that cater to seniors. Today, I’m going to cover three solid REITs that are uniquely positioned to profit. To start, they own the sorts of properties that are going to be most in demand from an aging population. But secondly, with their high and growing dividends, they also stand to benefit from the continued hunt for dividend yield: LTC Properties Inc (LTC), Ventas, Inc. (VTR) and Health Care REIT, Inc. (HCN).
