3 Unknown but Amazing Dividend Stocks

Dividend payers come in all sizes and from all industries. However, the quality that makes some stand out from the crowd is their ability to grow their payouts consistently. Not only do such companies provide shareholders with ever-increasing income streams, but dividend growth stocks have historically outperformed their stingier peers. That's why we're always on the lookout for companies that pay a growing dividend -- because they can do such a good job of creating wealth for investors over the long term.

Three stocks that have this quality -- yet remain unknown to most investors -- are Holly Energy Partners (NYSE:HEP), Mercury General (NYSE:MCY), and FactSet Research Systems (NYSE:FDS). Here's a look at why we think this under-the-radar trio will keep rewarding shareholders in the years to come.
