Today’s chart highlights another winner in the healthcare business, senior housing. Regular readers have heard our bullish argument on senior housing before. As the population gets older, we’re going to need more nursing homes, retirement communities, and long-term care facilities.
Today, we can see this trend’s success with Omega Healthcare Investors Inc (NYSE:OHI). This real estate investment trust (REIT) owns the facilities or mortgages of 477 nursing homes and specialty hospitals. And with a yield approaching 10%, income investors have taken notice. Omega Healthcare Investors is a lucrative business. It doesn’t actually run any senior care facilities itself; instead, management leases out properties to operators in exchange for ongoing rent checks.
