As far as performance goes, Realty Income pays a 3.8% dividend yield in monthly installments, and the payout has been increased for 74 consecutive quarters by an average annual rate of 5%. In its 45-year history as a publicly traded company, Welltower has amassed a portfolio of more than 1,400 healthcare properties -- mainly senior housing and long-term care (LTC) facilities. However, with a 10.8% annualized dividend growth rate for the past two decades and a 17.9% average total return, Public Storage doesn't make inflation seem like much of an issue.
