On Jan 16 2018 The board of directors of 2 companies decided to send more money my way. I love it when companies do that. It puts me a little closer to my goals. I had 2 raises announced last year that took affect this year but these 2 are the first for me for this year.
The first one is O which is Reality Income which was one of the companies in Dec which raised for Jan and now again.
SAN DIEGO, Jan. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Realty Income Corporation (Realty Income, NYSE:O), The Monthly Dividend Company®, today announced its Board of Directors has declared an increase in the company’s common stock monthly cash dividend to $0.219 per share from $0.2125 per share.

That’s one of great things about investing in dividend growth stocks: having the companies increase their dividends. I’m a huge fan of Realty Income and currently have that in my portfolio. I would like to also invest in OHI but weary of adding another REIT to my taxable account because of how they are taxed. But, it’s sweet to know that as you continue to contribute to your portfolio, such companies continue to work for you behind the scenes and even while you sleep. Can’t wait to see what other companies decide to raise their dividends in 2018.
