When it comes to dividend investors, the goal is usually to find the highest yield possible. A common source of high yields is real estate investment trusts (REITs). REITs are a strong choice because there is not a lot of risk in the business model, thanks to the stable cash flow from the business’ operations. Another advantage of REIT investing is that there are many properties in the portfolio, adding diversification.
Omega Healthcare Investors Inc (NYSE:OHI) stock would be classified as a high-yield company with a diversified portfolio of assets. The yield is 8.09%, with a current trading price of $30.15. The dividend is paid on a quarterly basis in the amount of $0.60 per share. Over the past six years, the dividend has seen an increase. There are currently more than 1,000 locations operated by Omega Healthcare in 42 states. The assets are primarily focused on the healthcare industry–more specifically, long-term healthcare facilities for seniors.
