What I Plan To Do.
I own shares in several REITs and they've been very nice investments, especially the investment I have in Chatham Lodging Trust. I really don't do much with that investment. I just let the stock dividends reinvest back into more shares of the company and that seems to be doing very well for me. I believe Pebblebrook Hotel Trust would be a very similar type investment for me. While this may not make me a millionaire in my lifetime, I expect it to grow nicely over the years. And that's all I can ask from any of my investments.
I expect to start accumulating shares of this company very soon but I'd like to buy shares as cheaply as I can (obviously!). That said, a good level to start accumulating would be at or below $25. And with a dividend that's going to grow another 22% this year, the dividend reinvestment could add to the number of shares rather quickly.
