Look at real estate investment trusts (REIT), like Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities (NYSE: MAA), for example. With a yield of just over 4%, Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities is an attractive, oversold opportunity. The REIT focuses on apartment communities in the Southeast, Southwest, and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. MAA also declared a quarterly dividend of $1.515 per share, payable on July 31 to shareholders of record as of July 15. Even better, Goldman Sachs just added the MAA stock to its Conviction List with a price target of $192 a share. If you were to invest $25,000 in the Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities REIT, you’d take ownership of 167 shares. Using its current dividend of $1.515, you’d collect just over $253 a quarter. Annually, you’d collect $1,012 just by holding the Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities stock. Plus, with Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities you gain exposure to renter households, which are growing faster than homeowner households. According to Barron’s: “With house prices still high, mortgage rates stuck just under 7%, and plenty of economic uncertainty, consumers are once again seeing the virtues of renting. Over a third of respondents, 35%, told Fannie Mae in April that they would rent instead of buy if they had to move, the highest share since October and more than the long-term average of three in 10.” Here are three more apartment REITs you may want to consider.
