Foreword

Any collection of dividend stocks is more clearly understood when subjected to yield-based (dog catcher) analysis, these US exchange sourced real estate investment trust stocks are perfect for the dogcatcher process. Here is the September 17 data for 49 top dividend-paying net gain REITs as documented by YCharts.

The Ides of March plunge in the stock market took its toll on US REITs. Only one top ten US REIT by yield from March was back in the top 10 for April. However, the drop in prices in all top 50 US REITs (listed by yield) did make the possibility of owning productive dividend shares from this collection more affordable for first-time investors. A rapid recovery in market prices partially closed that window of first-time buying opportunity.

As of June 9, the record showed all 49 top-yield REITs living up to the dogcatcher ideal of producing enough annual dividend from $1k invested to buy one or more shares of their stock.

The July 29 poll showed all 43 top REITs for August living the dream of providing annual dividends from $1k invested sufficient to buy one or more shares of the target stock.

As of August 26, the poll found all 46 producing enough annual dividend from $1k invested to buy one or more shares of their stock.

This survey from September 17 shows 46 of 49 sporting enough dividend from a $1k investment to buy one or more shares of stock.
