February 2018 Dividend Update

February 2018 Dividend Update

With February ending so soon, which barely leaves time to count the dividend. Only 28 days leaves one wondering where did the time go. But this is why we invest in dividend paying stocks to keep up with inflation to be blue to reach our early retirement goal.

So without further ado lets recap on my passive income which i know track rental income provide by rental property.

February Dividend:
MAIN $1.84
OHI $2.32
LTC $2.02
STAG $3.93
PBA $.43
Total $10.54
This is real money that I did not have to do anything to receive this money. All I did was starting to investing in the above stocks and wait to collect the dividend, which I intend to grow over time.

Rental Property:
Total Cash flow for the month $356.00 and total passive income of $366.54. This is real money, in fact it covers my monthly car payment and leaves some to cover my monthly parking and bus ride to work.

How did you do last month?

Recent Purchase II - February. 2018

Recent Purchase II

With the month drawing to a close, its time to update everyone on my progress and recent Purchase in the last few weeks. It has being a busy month for sure with a lot activities on the market. However not paying attention to the noise in the market and keep regularly investing building my assets and passive income is the key to longer term investors and those with a desire to an early retirement.

So here is what I purchase recently:

2/20/2018
MAIN 2.498 shares @ $36.44 + $3.95 Commission = $95.00

2/26/2018
QCOM 3 shares @ $67 + $6.95 commission = $207.95

2/27/2018
O 5.784 shares @ $49.80 + $3.95 shares = $292.00

I have being active with some recent purchase that I will built on in the near future to reach early retirement. Together with other investment like real estate I hope to built a passive income which will fuel my yawning and desire to reach early retirement and quit this rat race.

With this purchase I was able to buy two (2) out of six (6) stocks on my February watch list. Again Mr. Market has away to change and provide other opportunity not seeing early. However, timing has away to make other opportunity more visible with timing.

What do you think of recent purchases?

Recent Purchase February 2018

Recent Buy

Halfway to the end of the month I made my first purchase to add to my dividend growth. It has been a busy second month specially as a landlord there has been a few repairs and getting apartments ready for inspection. Hopefully this will add to rental increase down the line.

However back to focusing on buy dividend paying stocks. Here is what i purchase with my first buy of the month:

LTC 10.633 shares @ $37.81 + 3.95 Commission = $406.00

(LTC) LTC Properties, Inc., a health care real estate investment trust, invests primarily in long-term care and other health care related facilities through mortgage loans, facility lease transactions and other investments. Their primary objectives are to sustain and enhance stockholder equity value and provide current income for distribution to stockholders through real estate investments in long-term care facilities and other health care related facilities managed by experienced operators providing quality care.

With REIT currently taken a beaten in the market, it was time to add to this monthly dividend paying stocks. Currently three (3) out of four (4) of my stocks are monthly paying dividend stocks. I hope to add a few more monthly paying dividend stocks to start my base holdings.

What do you thing of this purchase? What are you buying recently?

2018 Goals

2018 Goals!

Anyone can tell you to be successful you have to have a long term goals as well as short term goals. Short term goals should be attainable. Goals that are short term nature and attainable helps fuel one desires to attain other goals including long term goals which may take years to achieve. However, whenever you achieve a short term goals this really helps motivate you to try to achieve your long term goals.

It’s with this type of mentality that I will set up my 2018 goals. Everyone knows our long term goals is to be able to achieve financial independence and early retirement. How about short term goals. This in my opinion tend to be hard to break down as everyone has different desires and train of thoughts when it comes to narrowing goals that can be both achievable and fuel your progress to achieve the ultimate goals. So here is my Goals for this year:

          1. Invest $3000 in new capital this year.

          2. Save for a down payment for a new house.

          3. Updated a new rental unit (potentially raise rental on next tenant)

          4. Raise rental on Two tenants.

          5. Buy 10 Stocks this year and continue to add shares to initial position.

          6. Buy 6 Monthly paying dividend stocks.

          7. Buy Dividend Aristocrats Stocks.

          8. Continue to build Emergency Cash to 9 months.

The goals above are all achievable and should propel my future growth towards early retirement. As you can see real estate will be part of my planning. We currently own a multi-family. We are actively looking and saving for a new property. Mrs. Dividend Pursuit we love to get a single family with an in-law setup for her parents. Her father is getting closer to retirement and hopefully we can help them when they reach their retirement milestone.

What are you priorities and goals for 2018?

With new month at it’s infancy it is only fitting that I plan on want i wish to purchase in the new month.

When panic sets, wise investor look for stocks they can park their cash for future growth. I been focusing on REIT in particularly health care and real estate to be exact.

Here are some of the stocks I hav been looking at recently: (OHI) Omega Health care Investors. The following is an insert from (Zack's) It is a self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT), investing in income producing health care facilities, principally long-term care facilities located in the United States (U.S.) and the United Kingdom (U.K.).

January 2018 Dividend update

January 2018 Dividend update

End of the month and beginning of new month is probably the best time for Dividend Investors. This allows time to reflect on past month and set course for new month. Also one is collecting real dollar amount that eventually can grow to fuel your early retirement  and quit the rat race once and for all.

My first month of starting out again from the beginning here is my progress so far:

January dividend total $10.11
MAIN $1.83
STAG $8.28

Rental Cash flow: $-274.00 this total a negative $-263.89 for the month of January. Someone of the things I could do is raise the rent once upcoming lease are due to maintain a cash positive cash flow.
Hopefully we can see some real progress as I continue to add different stocks and built on the ones I already have here as well.

I have updated my dividend page to reflect last month dividend. However I will only track Dividend and no other income there.

How did you do last month?

Recent Purchase III January 2018

Recent Purchase III January 2018

With my third purchase this month, you guess it I added to OHI. I have said in the recent past that this stock is surely undervalue due to the whole REIT sector under performance. So when it came time to add to my portfolio I choose to add to OHI while it is still down. Without further ado here is what I purchase with my third purchase this month.


OHI 15.0455 shares @ $26.39 + 3.95 Commission = total $ 401.00

This is a bargain from my initial purchase at $27.33. If it pulls back down more I may add to this position in the future. However, I will  stand pat for now. This add $39.72 to my yearly dividend.

What do you think of recent purchase? What are you buying?

Thanks for reading.
