Image Shown: We like exposure to shares of Realty Income Corporation in our Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio. Image Source: Realty Income Corporation – Second Quarter of 2022 IR Earnings Presentation By Callum Turcan We include Realty Income Corporation (O), a real estate investment trust (‘REIT’), as an idea in the Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio because we like the exposure the REIT provides to the commercial property market. Back in November 2021, Realty Income closed its merger with VEREIT and subsequently spun off Orion Office REIT Inc (ONL), a move that effectively saw Realty Income exit the corporate office property space. Realty Income’s portfolio consists of 11,400+ commercial properties in the US, Puerto Rico, and the UK that provide the REIT … Read more
