I understand why SNH is so tempting, with its extremely high yield, but after reading the prospectus (available on the company website in .pdf format) I decided to pass. With a number of its renters in deep financial trouble, the yield is probably an illusion. The other half of the spinoff, HRP at less than $9.50, has a great, though not as high, yield, and much better tenants: Government, big companies like McDonalds and Federal Express. Average office lease runs 7 years. And HRP was beaten down just like SNH after the split, just the opposite of what you would think would happen. So I think it's the better REIT of the two for an aggressive but prudent investor.
