IVT

InvenTrust Properties Corp. (IVT), a REIT headquartered in Downers Grove, is highlighted as a compelling dividend investment opportunity. The company offers a dividend yield of 3.36% with an annualized dividend of $1.00, up 5.2% year-over-year. With a sustainable 53% payout ratio and expected earnings growth of 6.56% for 2026, IVT presents a solid income investment option, though it carries a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).

With lower bond yields and Social Security concerns, retirees should consider dividend-paying stocks as an alternative income source. The article recommends three dividend stocks: Genuine Parts (GPC) with a 3.32% yield, HP (HPQ) with a 3.83% yield, and InvenTrust Properties Corp. (IVT) with a 3.26% yield. High-quality dividend stocks can provide steady income while helping combat inflation through dividend growth.
