How Can You Earn $100 Per Month As An UDR Investor?

If you want to make $100 per month –$1,200 annually – from UDR dividends, your investment value needs to be approximately $30,534, which is around 706 shares at $43.22 each. 

Understanding the dividend yield calculations: When estimating, you need two key variables – the desired annual income ($1,200) and the dividend yield (3.93% in this case). So, $1,200 / 0.0393 = $30,534 to generate an income of $100 per month.

You can calculate the dividend yield by dividing the annual dividend payments by the stock’s current price.

The dividend yield can change over time as a result of fluctuating stock prices and dividend payments on a rolling basis.

For instance, assume a stock that pays $2 as an annual dividend is priced at $50. Its dividend yield would be $2/$50 = 4%. If the stock price rises to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). A drop in stock price to $40 will have an inverse effect and increase the dividend yield to 5% ($2/$40).

In summary, income-focused investors may find UDR stock an attractive option for making a steady income of $100 per month by owning 706 shares of stock. There may be more upside as investors benefit from the company's consistent dividend hikes. UDR has raised its dividend consecutively for the last 15 years.
