Stock Purchase - Welltower Inc. (15 shares, $51 dividend income)

After my recent addition of New Senior Investment Group (NYSE:SNR) in the healthcare REIT sector, I began looking for another investment in this popular sector and came across another attractive REIT with a good yield (5%), namely Welltower (NYSE: HCN).

Welltower Inc., (NYSE: HCN) is one of the largest REIT that invests in senior housing, assisted living and memory care communities, post-acute care facilities, and medical office buildings together with hospitals and other healthcare properties in US, Canada and UK.

Unlike New Senior Investment Group which is more of a high yield risky bet (10+% yield), Welltower is very established with a long dividend history and I'm confident this one will be a long term holding, so called "SWAN" (sleep well at night) stock :))

This purchase will add $51 annual dividend income to my dividend stock portfolio

Basic info:

Market CAP: 23B   EPS:$1.72  Dividend: $3.44 (5.20%)

Stock Purchase - SNR (100 shares, $104 dividend income)

New Senior Investment Group Inc. (NYSE: SNR) is a real estate investment trust (REIT) with over 105 independent living properties, 44 assisted living / memory care properties and 5 continuing care retirement communities properties nationwide over 30 states.

There is no doubt in my mind that this nation's aging population and longer lifespans will surely drive this company's business for the long foreseeable future. I hope and expect their revenues to grow,  improve and be lucrative enough to be sustainable.

As long as they maintain that crazy 10+% yield and don;'t screw up badly, I'm in it ! :))

This purchase will add $104 annual dividend income to my dividend stock portfolio

Basic info:

Market CAP: 826M   EPS:-$1.10  Dividend: $1.04 (10.25%)
