This Landlord’s 9.5% Yield Is Growing

A 9.5% Yield With Upside. Over the next couple of decades, few businesses will likely mint more money than senior homes. Each year, four million baby boomers turn 65. That will push up demand for everything from doctor’s offices and nursing homes to retirement communities and assisted living facilities.

One name poised to profit from this boom: Omega Healthcare Investors Inc (NYSE:OHI). The real estate investment trust (REIT) owns a portfolio of senior living properties and mortgages on other healthcare facilities. And, with a distribution yield topping 9.5%, these units look tempting to yield-hungry investors. We have a big safety net here, for starters. When evaluating REITs, I track performance through fund flows from operations (FFO). This provides a better gauge of profitability than normal earnings.
