The retail REIT area is not one of the high yield REIT areas. But for the type of investor that invests long term (large) with their a large part of their diversified portfolio, the likes of O is meat & potatoes. And IMO it has just given a huge buying opportunity, for those types. It has a 6 year history of increasing payouts. And that's what drives long term investors to buy and hold. We're talking Buffet types and institution managers.

I, on the other hand, invest long 1 to 3 years) in REITs with as high a ROI as possible, but I also keep a close eye on each, and manage my dividend plays more closely. I'm not a millionaire that's ecstatic with a 5% ROI and looks once a year on a 10 to 30 year hold. For those guys 5% is huge. And large cap stocks are pretty much mandatory.
