⛳🎬🎢 WHO OWNS THE PLACES WHERE WE PLAY? I Do!! And you can too!

Have you ever spent money at Topgolf, AMC, Regal, Main Event, Six Flags or 24 Hour Fitness?

Here’s something you may not know,

A publicly traded real-estate investment trust called EPR Properties owns or finances real estate connected to many of these familiar destinations.

Ticker symbol EPR

EPR is called an experiential REIT because it invests in places people visit for entertainment, recreation, fitness and memorable experiences.

Its portfolio includes properties associated with recognizable names such as:

⛳ Topgolf
🎳 Main Event Entertainment
🏎️ Andretti Indoor Karting & Games
🪂 iFLY Indoor Skydiving
🎬 AMC Theatres
🎬 Regal
🎬 Cinemark
🍿 Alamo Drafthouse
🏋🏾‍♀️ 24 Hour Fitness
⛷️ Vail Resorts-operated properties
🎰 Resorts World

In 2026, EPR also purchased seven major amusement and water-park properties:

🎢 Worlds of Fun
🎢 Valleyfair
🎢 Michigan’s Adventure
🎢 Six Flags St. Louis
🎢 Six Flags Great Escape
🌊 Schlitterbahn Waterpark Galveston
🎡 La Ronde in Montreal

Now, let me make an important distinction,
EPR does not own the Topgolf, AMC, Regal or Six Flags operating companies. It owns or finances specific real estate used by these businesses and collects rent or financing income.

As of June 30, 2026, EPR reported approximately 346 locations operated by 62 different operators across 43 states and Canada.

💰 DOES EPR PAY A DIVIDEND?

Yes. EPR currently pays its common shareholders a dividend every month.

Its latest declared dividend is:

💵 $0.31 per share each month
💵 $3.72 per share annually if the current rate continues

At an approximate share price of $59.18, a $1,000 investment could purchase about 16.9 fractional shares and potentially generate approximately:

💵 $5.24 per month
💵 $62.86 per year

These are estimates. Share prices and dividend payments can change, and dividends are never guaranteed.

⚠️ WHAT ARE THE RISKS?

EPR’s income depends on people continuing to spend money on movies, recreation, travel and entertainment. Its risks include:

• Financial trouble affecting major tenants
• Changes in consumer entertainment spending
• High interest rates and borrowing costs
• Concentration in movie-theater properties
• Dividends being reduced or suspended

In fact, EPR suspended its common dividend during the COVID-19 shutdowns. That history matters because it shows why a monthly dividend should never be confused with a guaranteed dividend.

The lesson is not go buy EPR.

The lesson is that when you spend money at Topgolf, AMC, Regal, Main Event or an amusement park, there may be another company behind the scenes owning the real estate and collecting the rent.

You can enjoy the experience as a customer or learn how shareholders participate through the landlord.

That landlord is EPR Properties, ticker symbol EPR.

🎰🏨 WHO OWNS LAS VEGAS? I do & you can too!!!

When you see Caesars Palace, MGM Grand or the Venetian, you may assume the casino companies own everything.

But here is something many people don’t know:

A publicly traded REIT called VICI Properties owns some of the most recognizable real estate in Las Vegas.

Ticker symbol, VICI

VICI owns real estate connected to properties including:

🎰 Caesars Palace
🛶 The Venetian Resort, including The Palazzo and Venezia
🦁 MGM Grand
🏖️ Mandalay Bay
🎲 Harrah’s Las Vegas

Here’s how it works
VICI owns the real estate, while companies such as Caesars Entertainment and MGM Resorts operate the casinos and resorts.

Those operators pay rent to VICI under longterm leases. Many are triple net leases, meaning the operator is generally responsible for property taxes, insurance, maintenance and other property expenses.

VICI doesn’t depend on whether one particular visitor wins or loses at a slot machine. Its business is primarily collecting rent from the companies operating these properties.

💰 DOES VICI PAY A DIVIDEND?

Yes. VICI currently pays dividends quarterly four times per year.

Its usual payment months are
✅ January
✅ April
✅ July
✅ October

VICI’s latest declared quarterly dividend is $0.46 per share, or $1.84 annually per share if that rate continues for four quarters.

At an approximate share price of $24.83, a $1,000 investment could purchase about 40.27 fractional shares and generate approximately:

💵 $18.52 per quarter
💵 $74.10 per year

That is an estimate not a guarantee. Share prices and dividends can change.

⚠️ WHAT ARE THE RISKS?

VICI owns valuable real estate, but that does not make the investment risk-free.

Its risks include
• Heavy dependence on major tenants such as Caesars and MGM
• Changes in tourism and gaming revenue
• Interest rates and borrowing costs
• A substantial amount of company debt
• The possibility of dividends being reduced or suspended

The lesson isn’t go buy VICI.

The lesson is that real estate ownership doesn’t always require buying an entire house, hotel or casino yourself.

Through a publicly traded REIT, everyday investors can potentially own a small piece of real estate connected to some of the most famous destinations in Las Vegas.

So the next time you walk through Caesars Palace, MGM Grand or the Venetian, remember:

Someone is operating the casino but someone else may own the real estate and collect the rent.

That someone is VICI Properties, and its shareholders participate through ticker symbol VICI.

🏢💰 MY FIRST REIT: WHEN DO YOU WANT TO GET PAID?

Did you know some REITs pay dividends every month instead of every three months?

Most publicly traded REITs pay quarterly, but the following REITs currently make monthly distributions to common shareholders:

🏪 O — Realty Income
Freestanding retail and commercial properties

🛒 ADC — Agree Realty
Retail properties leased to major companies

🏨 APLE — Apple Hospitality REIT
Mostly Marriott- and Hilton-branded hotels

🎬 EPR — EPR Properties
Movie theaters, attractions and other experience-based properties

🏥 LTC — LTC Properties
Senior housing and skilled-nursing properties

🏭 GOOD — Gladstone Commercial
Primarily industrial and net-leased commercial properties

🏢 MDV — Modiv Industrial
Single-tenant industrial and manufacturing properties

🏘️ UDR — UDR, Inc.
Apartment communities

🩺 DOC — Healthpeak Properties
Outpatient medical buildings and lab properties

Now let’s talk about a different kind of REIT:

🏦 AGNC — AGNC Investment
🏦 EFC — Ellington Financial
🏦 ORC — Orchid Island Capital

These are mortgage REITs. They invest in or finance mortgages and mortgage-related assets instead of primarily owning buildings. They may offer larger dividends, but they also carry different—and often greater—risks involving debt, leverage and interest rates.

⚠️ IMPORTANT:

Getting paid monthly does not automatically make a REIT better or safer. Dividend amounts can be reduced, suspended or changed, and a high dividend yield can sometimes be a warning sign.

Here is something else I discovered during my research:

🔄 UDR and Healthpeak, ticker DOC, moved to monthly payments in 2026.

🔄 STAG Industrial and SL Green, ticker SLG, moved from monthly payments to quarterly payments in 2026.

That means some of the “monthly dividend REIT” lists circulating online are already outdated.

This is education—not a recommendation to buy any particular investment. Always research what the company owns, how the dividend is funded and what risks come with it.

Next, I’m going to show you how quarterly-paying REITs can be combined so that you may still receive REIT dividends during every month of the year.

Verified as of September 13, 2026. Dividend policies can change.

🏠📈 WELCOME TO MY FIRST REIT!

I see all of my new followers coming in, and I am SO excited to have you here! ❤️

If you're ready to buy your first REIT, your very first step is simple:

YOU NEED A BROKERAGE ACCOUNT.

A brokerage account is the account you use to buy and hold investments like stocks and publicly traded REITs.

Think of it like this:

🏦 Your bank account holds your cash.

📈 Your brokerage account is where you buy and hold your investments.

You can open a brokerage account with companies such as Fidelity, Charles Schwab, Vanguard, E*TRADE and other established brokerage firms.

Once your account is open:

1️⃣ Connect your bank account.

2️⃣ Transfer in the amount you want to invest.

3️⃣ Search for the REIT by its ticker symbol.

For example:

🏭 Rexford Industrial Realty — REXR

📦 Prologis — PLD

4️⃣ Decide how much YOU want to invest.

5️⃣ Review everything carefully before you hit BUY.

And depending on your brokerage, you may be able to purchase fractional shares, which means you may not even need enough money to buy one whole share.

You do NOT need thousands or millions of dollars to START learning about real-estate investing.

Start where YOU are.

And once you own your REIT, we're going to talk about one of my favorite parts…

👀💰 DIVIDENDS!

Some of my First REITers are already receiving theirs!

And remember, when those dividends come in, you may be able to:

💵 Take them as cash

OR

🔄 Turn on DRIP, Dividend Reinvestment and automatically use those dividends to buy additional shares.

But FIRST THINGS FIRST…

🏠 OPEN THAT BROKERAGE ACCOUNT.

Then come back here, because I'm going to walk my new First REITers through this one step at a time.

Welcome to My First REIT! ❤️📈

From STAKEHOLDERS ➡️ to SHAREHOLDERS.

Financial education only. I am not telling you what to buy. Research every investment and make decisions based on your own financial circumstances.

🏠📈 WAIT…YOU MEAN SOME OF Y'ALL NOW OWN PROPERTY'S RIGHT HERE IN COMPTON?! 👀

YES! 😂

My First REITers have been learning, researching, buying shares, receiving dividends and some are even reinvesting those dividends.

So let's bring WHO OWNS COMPTON? back for a minute and look at some REAL Compton properties. 👀

🏭 REXFORD INDUSTRIAL REALTY (Ticker REXR)

📍 1420 McKinley Avenue
📍 2020 Central Avenue
📍 3131 Harcourt Street

If you own shares of REXR, you own shares in the REIT whose portfolio includes these Compton properties. So YES you own these!!

💰 REXR: approximately $37 per share as of 8/21/26

WAIT…WHAT?! 👀

We're talking about real estate companies with MILLIONS and BILLIONS of dollars in real estate and you don't need millions of dollars to become a shareholder? NOPE

One share of REXR is currently around $37.

Now THAT'S why I wanted y'all to learn about REITs! 😂

And Rexford isn't the only one…

📦 PROLOGIS (Ticker PLD)

Look at these Compton addresses⬇️

📍 303–333 W. Artesia Boulevard
📍 737 W. Artesia Boulevard
📍 800 W. Artesia Boulevard
📍 801 W. Artesia Boulevard
📍 601 W. Carob Street
📍 775 W. Manville Street

💰 PLD: approximately $141 per share as of 8/21/26

Recognize some of those streets? 👀😂

And here's what I REALLY want you to understand......

YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO PARTICIPATE IN REAL ESTATE OWNERSHIP.

You don't have to buy the whole warehouse.

You don't have to buy the shopping center.

You don't have to come up with the millions of dollars these properties can cost.

With a REIT, you're purchasing shares in the company and its overall realestate portfolio.

And depending on your brokerage account, fractional shares may even allow you to start with LESS than the price of one full share.

Now here's another part I love…

💰 THE DIVIDENDS!

REITs are designed to distribute income to their shareholders. To qualify as a REIT, a company generally must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income annually TO US, YES YOU & I THE SHAREHOLDERS!!!

And some of my First REITers have ALREADY RECEIVED THEIR DIVIDENDS! 🙌🏾💰😂

You may choose to receive those dividends as cash, OR, when available through your brokerage account, turn on Dividend Reinvestment and automatically use those dividends to purchase additional shares or fractional shares. You'll literally be buying shares & making $$ while you SLEEP 😴

Now let's talk about a property everybody in Compton knows…

🛍️ GATEWAY TOWNE CENTER

📍 Artesia & Alameda

Yep. THAT Gateway. 👀

Gateway is connected to the CLPF Gateway Towne Center LP / Clarion Partners institutional REIT realestate investment structure.

🧱 THE COMPTON BRICKYARD

📍 1701 N. Central Avenue
📍 1430 N. McKinley Avenue

The nearly 1 MILLION-square-foot Brickyard was involved in a reported $412 MILLION transaction in 2026 involving Clarion Partners.

$412 MILLION. 😳

Now compare that number with what we just learned.

You don't have $412 million?

ME NEITHER! 😂

That's the beauty of learning about REITs.

📈 REXR — publicly traded approximately $37/share
📈 PLD — publicly traded approximately $141/share
🔐 Gateway — (Ask me how)
🔐 Brickyard — (Ask me how)

And remember buying one share does NOT mean somebody is mailing you a tiny deed to a warehouse. 😂

You're buying shares in the REIT, whose portfolio includes these Compton properties.

So some of my First REITers can literally drive through Compton, look at one of these properties and say..

I own shares in the company whose portfolio includes THAT property AND THEY PAY ME FOR IT! 👀🏠📈

You don't have to be a millionaire to start learning about ownership.

YOU JUST HAVE TO KNOW OWNERSHIP IS AVAILABLE TO YOU.

That's why I started My First REIT. ❤️

From STAKEHOLDERS ➡️ to SHAREHOLDERS.

08/21/2026

👀💰 WAIT A MINUTE…Y'ALL GETTING PAID NOW?! 😂

YES!

Some of my First REITers have officially started receiving DIVIDENDS from REITs they've invested in! 🏠📈

Now before anybody gets carried away 😂 I'm not saying quit your job tomorrow.

But I AM saying…

YOUR INVESTMENT PAID YOU. 👀💰

And here's the part I want my First REITers to understand:

When that dividend comes in, you generally have TWO choices depending on your brokerage and investment

💵 TAKE THE CASH
Your dividend can remain as cash in your brokerage account, where you can withdraw it or use it however you choose.

OR…

🔄 TURN ON DRIP. Dividend Reinvestment

Instead of taking the dividend as cash, you can have it automatically reinvested into additional shares including fractional shares when available of that investment.

So imagine this:

🏠 You own shares
⬇️
💰 Those shares pay a dividend
⬇️
🔄 You reinvest that dividend
⬇️
📈 It buys more shares
⬇️
💰 Those additional shares may earn future dividends too!

And you didn't have to remember to go back and buy them.

IT HAPPENED AUTOMATICALLY. 😴💰😂

That's the power of compounding over TIME.

And yes you can absolutely choose the CASH. Sometimes cash is exactly what somebody wants or needs.

The lesson isn't “Everybody turn on DRIP.”

The lesson is THIS!

KNOW YOUR OPTIONS.

💵 Take your dividend as cash.

OR

🔄 Reinvest it and continue building your position.

Your money. Your goals. Your decision.

But First REITers…

Y'ALL GETTING PAID NOW?! 👀😂💰

I LOVE IT!

From STAKEHOLDERS ➡️ SHAREHOLDERS ➡️ DIVIDEND RECEIVERS.
