Screeners

Real asset income screener

Income paid out of physical things: rent from property, tariffs from pipelines, and royalties on minerals produced. REITs, master limited partnerships, royalty vehicles and net-lease landlords, screened together and labelled by structure because the tax and the durability differ sharply between them.

How to read this: narrow the universe first — structure, sector, size — and only then sort. Sorting on yield alone puts whatever the market has most recently marked down at the top, which is a fact about price rather than about income. Every column here measures the past or the present; none of them is a forecast.

What this screen covers
This screen covers equity and mortgage REITs, master limited partnerships, and the royalty trusts and minerals companies in the site's curated catalog. It is drawn by structure rather than by sector, so a company that owns property but is not organised as a REIT will not appear, and a mortgage REIT — which owns loans against property rather than property — will. Funds holding baskets of these are in the income fund screener.
Which yield you are reading
The yield column is the annual distribution over the latest stored price: a FORWARD estimate where the payment cadence is established, and the TRAILING twelve months where it is not. The Yield basis column names it per row. This matters more here than in most screens because several royalty vehicles pay a variable amount every month — what the wells produced at the price they fetched — so their annualised figure describes recent production, not a rate anyone has committed to.

Annual distribution over the latest stored price, on the basis named per row.

The structure decides the tax form you receive and how durable the payment is. It is not a quality ranking.

The sector stored against the security, as classified by the data provider.

A partnership sends a Schedule K-1 instead of a 1099, which arrives later and can create filing obligations in other states.

Market capitalisation as stored with the latest quote. Blank for many funds, which the filter therefore excludes rather than assumes.

Cadence is derived from the spacing of actual payment dates, not from the provider's frequency tag, which is missing on many rows.

The sort order is a filter, not an opinion.

17 securities match the filters currently applied, sorted by yield, annualised (highest first). This is a research screen, not a recommendation and not a ranking of quality. A filter describes what a security is; the sort order is a filter too, not an opinion. A security at the top of a yield sort is the one paying the most relative to its price today, which is as often a market judgement about risk as it is an opportunity.

The database holds 209 securities in this screener's universe, of which 192 are eligible for the screen. Of the rest, 5 are not currently live — a security whose quote has gone stale is marked historical, because a data vendor keeps quoting the last trade that ever happened for something redeemed, matured, delisted or acquired, and annualising a payment against that price invents a yield; 2 have a payment record too irregular for any rate to describe — a one-off distribution dominates the last twelve months, or there are too few payments on record; 10 have no payment history from which to compute an annualised yield.

The two sentences above matter more than any row below them: the first says how many securities matched and in what order they are listed — whichever sort is selected, so the top row is the extreme of that one measure and nothing else — and the second says what was held back and why. In this view the table shows fewer columns: a second yield on a different basis, a ratio, a size are hidden, and the columns that remain carry a line of plain English under the header. Switch to Expert in the bottom-right rail to see all of them. Every figure is a stored observation rather than a live quote, and every one describes the past or the present — none of them is a forecast.

A research screen, not a recommendation
This is a research screen, not a recommendation and not a ranking of quality. A filter describes what a security is; the sort order is a filter too, not an opinion. A security at the top of a yield sort is the one paying the most relative to its price today, which is as often a market judgement about risk as it is an opportunity.

What this screener is for

This screen exists to compare income that comes out of physical assets, with the legal structure named on every row. Rent from a building, a tariff for moving a barrel through a pipe, and a royalty on each barrel produced are three different claims on a real asset, and they behave differently: rent is contractual for the term of a lease, a pipeline tariff depends on volume, and a royalty rises and falls with production and the commodity price. See REITs, master limited partnerships, royalty trusts.

Structure is a first-class column here rather than a footnote because it decides what arrives in the post. A REIT sends a 1099 and its distribution is largely ordinary income; a partnership sends a Schedule K-1 with state-by-state attribution; a royalty trust sends a tax package with a depletion allowance to compute. The same headline yield means three different things after tax. See limited partnerships.

What it cannot tell you

  • It cannot tell you whether a REIT's distribution is covered, because the relevant measure is funds from operations rather than GAAP earnings, and this database does not hold FFO. A REIT's payout ratio against earnings routinely reads above 100% while the payment is comfortably covered. See funds from operations.
  • It holds no lease data — no occupancy, no weighted average lease term, no rent coverage, no tenant concentration — which for a landlord is most of the question. See triple-net lease properties.
  • For royalty vehicles it holds no reserve life and no production data. Many royalty trusts are finite by design: they hold a fixed interest in wells that deplete, and the trust terminates when production falls below a threshold. A trailing yield on a depleting asset is partly a return of the asset itself. See oil and gas royalty interests, mineral royalties.
  • It holds no commodity price exposure, no hedging, and no contract detail for midstream partnerships, so it cannot distinguish a fee-based volume contract from direct commodity exposure.
  • Mortgage REITs are in this universe by structure, but they own loans and securities rather than buildings. Their income is an interest spread financed with borrowing, and it responds to rate moves in a way rent does not. See mortgage REITs.

These definitions cover every column this screen can show, including the specialist ones hidden from the table above. Read the yield entry first. Which payment went into the figure, and over what period, is what the number actually means — and two yields computed on different bases are not comparable with each other, even though both are printed as a percentage.

What each column means

Structure
Derived from the security's kind and curated tags: equity REIT, net-lease REIT, mortgage REIT, master limited partnership, or royalty vehicle. It is what determines the tax form and, largely, the shape of the income.
Yield (annualised — basis per row)
Annual distribution over the latest stored price — forward where the cadence is established, trailing where it is not. For variable royalty payers, read it as a description of recent production rather than as a rate.
Rising yrs (our history)
Consecutive completed calendar years in which the largest regular payment exceeded the previous year's, inside stored history only. A trailing '+' marks a run that reaches the first year we hold.

Where these numbers come from

Nothing on this page is a live quote. Prices are the most recent stored observation from the daily quote job, and every yield is computed against that stored price. Securities that have stopped trading — redeemed, matured, delisted or acquired — keep their history in the database but are excluded from every screen, because a vendor keeps quoting the last trade that ever happened and annualising against it invents a yield.

Securities whose last twelve months are dominated by a one-off payment, or that have too few payments on record to establish a rate, are marked 'irregular' by the compute job and are excluded from every screen here. The figure they would produce describes a single event rather than an income stream.

What can go wrong here
Rent stops when a tenant fails, and a single-tenant net-lease building with no tenant produces no income while still costing money. Property values and REIT share prices fall when rates rise, because a building competes with a bond for the same capital. Midstream partnerships depend on volumes moving through the system and on counterparties staying solvent, and the sector has cut distributions before to fund its own capital needs. Royalty vehicles are the sharpest case: the payment follows the commodity price and the production profile, both of which fall, and many trusts are designed to wind up when the wells are exhausted — so part of what looks like income is the asset returning itself to you.

Questions about this screen

Why are mortgage REITs in a real-asset screen?
Because the structure is a REIT and the collateral is property, but the distinction matters and the Structure column makes it: an equity REIT owns buildings and collects rent, while a mortgage REIT owns loans and mortgage securities and collects an interest spread, usually financed with borrowing. The second is a leveraged interest-rate business with real estate underneath, not a landlord, and its distribution responds to rate moves far more sharply.
What is a K-1 and why does it matter?
Schedule K-1 is the tax form a partnership sends its unit holders instead of a 1099. It reports your share of the partnership's income, deductions and credits, it typically arrives later than a 1099 — often after the usual filing date — and it can create a filing obligation in states where the partnership operates. Held in a retirement account, a partnership can also generate unrelated business taxable income. None of that is a reason to avoid the structure; it is a reason to know which structure you own, which is why this screen labels it.
Why is a royalty trust's yield described as depletion rather than income?
A royalty trust holds a fixed interest in specific wells or acreage. Every barrel produced is a barrel that will not be produced again, so part of each distribution is the underlying asset being consumed rather than income earned on a preserved asset. US tax law recognises this with a depletion allowance, which is reported in the trust's annual tax package. A trailing yield on a trust in decline can look high right up until the trust terminates.
Why does a REIT's payout ratio look impossible?
Because depreciation is a large non-cash charge against a property company's earnings, so GAAP earnings sit far below the cash the buildings actually produce. The measure the sector uses is funds from operations, which adds depreciation back. A REIT showing a payout ratio of 180% against earnings may be paying out a comfortable share of its funds from operations. This site does not hold FFO, which is why no payout column appears in this screen.
