mREITs are often bought for retirement income where the focus should on failure risk rather than on the size of next month's dividend. Key point is that these trusts have failed... fairly often, and not always so long ago.
Those who insist in buying mREITs should look into the underlying portfolio, with insured agency MBS historically being the much safer way to go.

On that 700% mentioned in the article, note that years ago, amid much higher inflation, it was easy to earn 7%, 8%, sometimes even 10% in long term bonds or even bank CDs with almost zero risk.
Generally, mREITs have been poor retirement investments.
