House verdict
Quality-tilted yield. Higher yield than VYM with a quality screen in front of it — economic moat and financial-health filters keep the worst yield traps out of the basket.
✓Coverage check:Financial-health screening at the index level; concentrated in cash-generative large caps.
✓Yield check:~3.1% is earned yield from profitable payers, not distress yield.
HDV in the House
Room: Consumer Reliability. Not one of the House's current holdings — in Order a New House it takes a seat in this room and carries the room's 19% target. Target 19% — the House's biggest room. Broad, quality-screened dividend payers: the reliable base the income is built on.
Every card is graded the same way and re-checked against the company's own filings. The Weekly House Score reports whatever crosses a House threshold; the House Tracker is the spreadsheet the framework itself runs on.
