Also opened a 1/3 position in WPC in my own portfolio. My wife already owned it and that 6% yield, reasonable P/AFFO and strong DGR for a REIT was just too tempting.
Sounds like money well spent. I've looked at WPC and I noticed that most of their dividend growth happened right after they converted to a REIT in 2012, so I don't know how much of it to attribute to the change of identity and ramping up their payouts of existing revenues to the full REIT pass-through level. Still watching on the sidelines.
