Take advantage of the bull market in housing.

Today is a great time to own housing with economy growing and unemployment low. You can easily become a landlord buying publicly traded REITs. REITs are required to pay out at least 90% of profits to shareholders providing investors current income with capital appreciation potential.

Mid-America Apartment Communities (MAA) owns more than 100,000 housing units in 16 states and Washington, D.C. With the strenthen in the housing market MAA is able to raise rents greater than inflation by 4.3%.

MAA shares are in a strong uptrend and shareholders are enjoying a dividend yield of nearly 3%.

If you would like to start gaining exposure to rental housing without the landlord hassles consider MAA today.
