Despite the turmoil in the housing market, homebuilder D.R. Horton and Option One Mortgage's parent company, H&R Block, have been added to Mergent Inc.'s Dividend Achievers indices, though Freddie Mac has been removed. Mergent, a New York-based provider of business information, said Dividend Achievers are companies that have increased annual regular dividends for at least the past 10 consecutive years and have met certain liquidity criteria.
