Last week of May

A quiet week. We negotiated new investment loan and we will get the money after the formalities are done. Most likely we receive the loan to our account 2nd week of June. Terms of the loan were acceptable but not great. We already have a plan for that money.

We also increased a bit of our portfolio. We bought 40 shares of Leggett & Platt @31,22 USD and 2 shares of Genuine Parts Company @84,11 USD. First one will increase our this year income by 24,5€ and second one 2,5 €.

Now this week passive income summary. On Monday we received 34 € interests from our COOP memberships. On Thursday we received 23,84 € dividends from Taaleri. AGM authorized the board to announce second dividend maximum of same amount, effective until next AGM. This means that if corona does not affect too much we may receive more dividends later this year from Taaleri. On Friday we received 19,97 CAD dividends from Transalta Renewables Inc which is approximately 13,06 € and 10,15 € from LTC Properties. We are still waiting Main Street Capital dividends to arrive.

In May we collected total of 436,98 € passive income, which is a bit less than 442 €/month what is needed for the target. If our bank had not failed to transfer dividend from Main Street Capital to our account, we would had meet this target. Luckily February was strong and our cumulative passive income is still on track, 2,78 € ahead actually. We also beat our 2019 May income by 4,3%.

3rd week of May

We started our week by buying 10 shares of Duke Energy @ 83,58 USD. This will increase our expected dividend income approximately by 14,45 € in 2020. Otherwise the week was pretty quiet.

On Monday we received some of the dividends which we missed last week. We received 9.24 € from Abbvie and 18,25 € from Realty Income. We are still waiting fo our Main Street Capital dividends.

On Wednesday we received  13,99 € from Ocean Yield ASA and finally on Friday we received 1,55 € From Diversified Healthcare Trust.

Our dividend income so far in May is 355,93 €. We still expect around 30 € dividends this month so we will again fall behind our target pace. This also means that our cumulative dividend income for this year will be less than it should be if we want to meet our target. Our passive income has been better than last year's income, so that is something positive. We are still positive that we will meet our this year goal.

2nd week of May

We started our week by buying 3 shares of Genuine Parts Company @75,52 USD. This will increase our estimated dividend income by 3,5 €.

First dividends arrived to our accounts on Wednesday when we received 19,14 € from Whitestone REIT. On Thursday we received 20 AUD from Washington H.Soul Pattinson which is approximately 11,93 €. And finally on Friday we received dividends from following companies:

• 16,15 CAD from Exchange Income which is approximately 10,62 €. 
• 10,23 CAD from Inter Pipeline LTD which is approximately 6,73 €
• 52,59 € from Omega Healthcare Investors Inc. 

This week's total dividend income was 101,01 €. Pretty decent week even though our bank failed (again) to transfer us some of the dividends. We are missing Realty Income REIT dividends. It seems like we will fall behind our target pace after this month, so we need to strenghten our portfolio for the rest of the year. To be able to do that we are considering to take another investment loan, if the terms are good enough. Right now it seems like we will reach our goal even without the new loan.
