People here talk about getting screwed, but they are forgetting an important issue. BTB has an exceptionally high yield because they essentially pay out all profits in the form of dividends, so they can only grow total assets by raising capital. But they have done pretty well at paying that dividend, which is why I am here like many others.
If you want dividends PLUS capital growth, you have to accept a lower dividend. In that case, buy an REIT with a good growth record, or a healthy bank.
All reits are required to pay our 90% of profits in div.
