To earn bigger yields, you have to get creative. Blue-chip dividend stocks just don’t cut it anymore. To find income, dividend hunters need to scope out lesser-known niches—like business development corporations (BDCs) or master limited partnerships (MLPs). Real estate investment trusts (REITs) are one of the last bastions of yield today. These firms buy properties and rent them out to tenants. And because they’re required by law to pay out most of their profits to investors, it’s not uncommon to find REITs paying yields as high as 12%, 15%, or even 17%...
One of my favorites: Sabra Health Care REIT Inc (NYSE:SBRA). The partnership doesn’t have the biggest following among income investors, but with a 9.1% yield and growing distribution, this could become one top dividend stock over the next decade. Sabra owns a collection of specialty hospitals, transitional care facilities, and senior housing nationwide. Thanks to America’s aging population, these businesses enjoy high rents and low vacancy rates. As a result, the partnership stands on a firm financial footing. Over the past 12 months, Sabra generated $2.31 per unit in adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) and paid out $1.73 per unit in distributions.
