    Healthcare REITs: Still Doing Well, But Will That Trend Continue? [view article]
    Healthcare REITS, if one does the research, and chooses carefully, are still one of the few safe places to be; I've contributed automatically, and regularly for fifteen years. The returns have been consistently in the high single, low double digit dividends. We're in the DRIP plan, so they've doubled in value a few times, and right now, like everything else, they're down in stock price. To me, this is an excellent time to buy all you can afford. It's not for anything other than a long term plan, but solid.
    - Take a look at SNH, IRETS, HRP, - DO the research.     Reply

    Those are some pretty good stocks out there for which I have never heard anything yet.

    stc1,

    Nobody would take your comments seriously unless you provide some hard data evidence that David Powell's calculation data is wrong. You might be correct, but please next time you criticize something, please have your backup ready.

    Guliamo,

    What you are saying about RYN is generally correct. It doesn't have to chop down trees if it doesn't like the price. But how else is the company going to be able to generate the cashflow to pay dividends to shareholders?

    the reit divy play is getting pretty old and risky when you consider the magic math needed to justify the huge debts...... if youre gonna play with high risk,,,,,,,,,DHY @ $3.50 paying 11% is a less risky play. been kicking old and stagnant DVY's butt since $70 Reply

    Rayonier is a timberland company that owns 10's of thousands of would land acres. They chop down a few acres, then move to the next in a cycle that allows re-growth. No need to explain how important wood is to many aspects of our life but wood is also good as an investment and a great hedge against a volatile market. If Rayonier doesn't like the current price it's offered for it's wood, it simply doesn't have to chop any - the inventory keeps growing, literally, on the tree - so no warehousing costs and no depreciation. Since the housing slowdown, RYN has been beaten up with the rest of the field, but not for a good reason. So if you are looking for a great way to play it solid and get a 4.6% dividend while you're doing it, Rayonier is the play for you. Reply

    Not particularly enlightening without financial statements. Hot air and posturing are available in abundance from Washington and the Congress. As an investor, I want to see numbers. Reply

    Also, I'm fairly certain your calc's for EPR, ARE, AMB and SLG are wrong, as their div's haven't grown by those percentages. All four came public in 1997, so I'm guessing you used their partial div's for the year for your base to calc div growth. AIV is also wrong; I don't know where your numbers are coming from. But hey, I tentatively think that the remaining five might be right! Just follow this simple rule: GGP should always come out #1 in historical dividend growth among REITs. If you get another result, your looking at the wrong info.

    This article needs a bit more homework. GTY and RYN weren't REITs for the entirety of your timeframe, so their dividend growth is skewed upward by their REIT conversion. PEI's div growth doesn't reflect the fact that the company foundered through most of the 90's and had to cut its dividend and restructure through a backdoor UPREIT (in 1997) before starting to grow again. PSA's div growth is skewed by some of its formation transactions. Reply

    You might take a look at SNH & HCN for healthcare REIT choices. Also O for good old consistant income. Reply

    The REIT haters are missing the value play here. Only recommended if you can hang on for 5-7 years. But, golly darn it, that's where the money is made: buy and hold at a discount. If you have a 6 month horizon, well, this isn't for you.
