The real estate sector performed quite poorly over the latter half of 2016 as interest rates began to rise, creating some attractive buying opportunities for long-term investors. Here are two REITs with strong dividends, both of which have fallen considerably from their 2016 highs, that income-seeking investors may want to take a look at. Most residential REITs invest in apartment communities, but the Great Recession created some attractive opportunities in the single-family rental market, and a few REITs were formed to take advantage.
One of these, Silver Bay Realty Trust (NYSE:SBY) was formed in 2012 to capitalize on the abundance of attractive single-family properties. The REIT acquires properties, renovates them, leases them to tenants, and manages them internally. Silver Bay has built a portfolio of about 8,900 properties, most of which are in Georgia, Florida, or Arizona -- three markets that were particularly hard-hit by the recession. Shopping center REIT DDR Corp (NYSE:DDR) is another cheap dividend stock I think is attractive right now, after a big decline in the second half of 2016. First, it's important to note that DDR invests in a specific type of shopping center, which it calls "power centers." These are shopping centers located in large markets, where the tenants are high-quality national companies, and where the anchor stores are value- and convenience-oriented.
