Now while that may be tempting, you could find a still-higher yield with certain stocks. Healthpeak Properties (NYSE: PEAK), Enbridge (NYSE: ENB), and International Business Machines (NYSE: IBM) all pay over 5% and are safe stocks to buy with the potential to deliver gains on top of their already strong yields.

If you have $5,000 to invest, these three stocks could help you make the most of it.
