Well, I don't think the frequency of the dividend payment matters in the end. Sure, it's nice if we get a dividend every month. It's normal to get it once every 3 months. How about once a year? Still ok with me. A 5% yield is a 5% yield regardless of the payment frequency... you end up with the exact same amount of money at the end of the year, though reinvesting works a bit better when the payments keep coming monthly.
So maybe a more fitting topic would be "investing in REITs" since that's what your list is mostly (or completely?) made out of. And there I'll just say that it is risky and capital gains are usually not that high, but depending on your strategy the high yield might make up for it. I personally like to have some REITs because it's an easy way to drag up the overall yield of the portfolio.
And yes, those monthly divs look nice in excel. :p
