Has DEED grown or cut its distribution?

At the current forward yield of 4.80%, you would need about 1,213 shares of DEED (roughly $25,018 invested at today's price) to collect $1,200 a year, or $100 a month on average, before taxes. Payments arrive every month, so the monthly figure is an average.
