Yahoo Finance These REITs Yield Up To 5.8% and Have Long Track Records of Dividend Growth
Real estate investment trusts (REITs) own, operate, or finance income-generating real estate. REITs allow individuals to invest in various types of real estate without having to directly own or manage the properties. REITs typically focus on a specific type of real estate, such as residential, commercial, or industrial, and they are required to distribute a large percentage of their taxable income to shareholders in the form of dividends, making them attractive for income-seeking investors.
Let's take a look at two REITs with dividend yields up to 5.8% that have been growing their dividends in recent years.
Sun Communities
Sun Communities Inc. (NYSE:SUI) owns, operates, or has an interest in 665 developed manufactured home, RV, and marina properties containing 180,110 developed sites and 48,040 wet slips and dry storage spaces in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. as of March 31.
