Income investors often rely on dividend stocks to protect themselves from inflation and market volatility. Companies that have stable cash flows and businesses are able to pay out earnings to shareholders as a reward for them being loyal to the company.  

Similarly, retirees seek a stable income stream in the form of proven dividend-paying stocks. In that category for their stable payouts, real estate investment trusts (REITs) are the most well known. 

However, not all REITs are the same, some pay dividends quarterly, others monthly, thus Finbold researched two moderate-buy REITs that pay monthly dividends that investors should have on their watchlists.
