U.S. real estate is back. And, especially, U.S. commercial real estate is back. Transaction volumes in the U.S. CRE market have steadily increased since the Great Recession a decade ago, and robust demand from private equity companies is fueling demand for commercial real estate. This company brings a lot to the table for dividend investors. Strong economic fundamentals and diversified loan portfolio imply dividend continuity. The company will see its operating earnings rise in a higher interest rate environment. Higher operating earnings will enhance its dividend coverage stats, tilting the odds in favor of a dividend hike. An investment in the stock yields 10.1 percent.
Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance, Inc. (NYSE:ARI) has income investors a lot to offer: The commercial real estate debt provider has robust operating earnings, a diversified loan portfolio, and profits from strong fundamentals in the U.S. CRE market. Importantly, Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance has upside tied to its floating-rate loan portfolio that is set to produce stronger operating earnings and better dividend coverage stats. As a result, I see potential for a dividend hike.
