The REIT has been forced to write off rents and absorb asset impairments thanks to the exit of this tenant from two properties, putting a wrench in what has otherwise been a strong growth story. Select Income REIT has watched its top line jump nearly 150% since 2013, which has helped fuel a growing and sustainable payout that currently translates into a high-8% yield.
