Preferred Shares vs. Mortgage REITs

Your income; your way. This is the mantra for all income investors. The stock market presents us with many options to create our own paycheck.
We must understand how to leverage each income product to help us achieve our dream of financial freedom.
Preferred shares tell us precisely what we are getting and at what price. There are no surprises. We determine the value when we make a purchase.
Mortgage REITs can give us high yields but at higher risk. mRIETs are highly sensitive to interest rates; therefore, we must follow rates to understand our risk at the time of purchase.
Together, these two securities can help provide us with high-yielding paychecks so we can achieve financial freedom before reaching full retirement age. That should be our dream. Good Luck!
