I don't agree with Ramsey's assessment of the value of a stock. There is nothing except the perceived price/value which causes the stock price to go up. Nothing is linking it to the profit of the company except what people feel its valued as. As long as people think its valuable, then it will go up.

Asking a real estate agent whether you should buy a home right now is like to asking an alcoholic whether they think you should have a drink lol. Homes in my neighborhood that cost around $450k in sales in 2019 are now going for $800 to $950k. Every seller in my neighborhood is currently making a $350k profit. Simply unreal. In all honesty, deflation is what we require. The only other option is for many people to go bankrupt, which would also be bad for the economy. That is the only way to return to normal.

[@KaurKhangura]

Home prices will come down eventually, but for now; its best to offset some of your real estate investments and get into the financial markets or gold. The new mortgage rates are crazy, add to that the recession and the fact that mortgage guidelines are getting more difficult. Home prices will need to fall by a minimum of 40% (more like 50%) before the market normalizes. If you are in cross roads or need sincere advise on the best moves to take now its best you seek an independent advisor who knows about the financial markets.

In spite of how everyone is frightened and calling the crash, there is already an excessive amount of demand waiting to absorb it, which is another reason it's less likely to happen that way. This forecast was not made in 2008, at least not by the general public, as I will explain below. The ownership rate peaked in 2004, according to the other comment. We reached a peak in the second quarter of 2020 and are currently at the median level.

Soon, cheap homes won't be cheap anymore because prices today will look like dips tomorrow. I think inflation will cause panic until the Fed tightens its grip even more. You can't just pull the band-aid Off half way. Booms and busts are the ups and downs of the economy, and they will affect any investments.

It could take months to sell a house. I had 1 rental that took me 4 months to sell. During that 4 months, I didn't have a renter and I had to keep paying the mortgage on it.

[@Magdalene777]

I think this depends on which stock you own and also the property in question. If you have a large stream of dividends you could get more recurring income than rent, and reinvest them to increase that income in a short amount of time. An expensive house, or a house in a desirable location, could get you a lot of rent or appreciate at a higher rate. I think there are too many factors to consider. With investing it also depends which stock you bought. If you're good at spotting opportunities you could pick one that suddenly takes off.

[@npip99]

Everyone's in the comments complaining about the work of being a landlord. Guys, that's built into the price of rent. You can hire a property manager to cover that for you if you want, labor is labor, you can still calculate the profit of a rental property _after_ you pay someone else to run it as part of the investment calculation. You can use REITs if you want it to be easier as well, and of course the REITs will be hiring property managers / being property managers on your behalf.

this subject always makes for a good debate. I invest my retirement money into the stock market, but I've always been intrigued by real estate AS an investment/future income option. Problem is, RE takes a LOT more time and expertise to avoid the potential pit falls. It's like a second job, from what I've learned from others who do the "rental property" thing. Hard to get honest answers from people because they want to feel smart and few rarely admit their failures when it comes to investments. I have a cousin that does very well with rentals. He's pretty much retired and that's because he's done well with smaller single family rental properties, but it comes with a lot of headaches. Ideally, you'd have BOTH (real estate/rentals AND stocks/bonds) but personally, I haven't found the guts to dive into buying rentals because I'm afraid I don't have enough knowledge/expertise and don't want to fail. I know you have to get into the game to truly learn it, but the EFT's, MF"s, etc are just so easy, convenient and low maintenance. I'm running out of time to make the real estate option viable (don't want to wait until I'm retired), so I may pull the trigger on a rental just to get my feet wet.

Exactly, even Real estate has high transaction costs. A seller can expect to pay significant closing cost, which can take as much as 6% to 10% off the top of the sale price. That’s a hefty cut compared with stocks, especially now that most brokers charge no fees for stock trades.

[@timgallon8771]

It’s difficult to diversify your investments with real estate. Location matters when investing in real estate. Sales may slump in one area, while values explode in another.

@Victoria Lomba wow you must be a very hard working woman, how do you combine both with you being a nurse?

@@charlottewick2456 well I made a lot of researches and got mentored by Mr Chris Vandernaald and it's really been paying off. Secrets you just have to invest in something know about.

Own a debt free house. This gives power to buy more stocks.

Best most simple comment lol

[@MidwestMoney]

That's what I'm doing. I have no interest in rental properties. I love me some stonks and this ridiculously large house, though.

[@oshahid1983]

Really great Advice from Dave!!!! I wish Dave would write a real estate investing book lol. The problem today is that real estate is crazy expensive and the stock market is very high. I am leaning towards keeping money in cash for the time being and waiting for the market to come down.....Problem is I have no idea when the market will decline lol. Are people out there getting good deals with real estate these days????

[@mixerman8]

I do both love the stocks but equally adore the challenge of real estate as you can leverage it to the hilt with interest rates still so low. As long as it’s in a tax efficient vehicle such as a ltd company. The best one so you can have both is to own commercial property in a SIPP, all the rent profits are tax free plus you get tax relief on top, a complete no brainier. Even better if your really into stocks as your leveraging your amount up considerably in a pension that’s a tax free vehicle.

[@Bubbasizer]

I like real estate more because it pays out monthly rent, the tax write offs, and appreciation, and like Dave mentions the control to find a better deal/value than the stock market. Plus I prefer owning a physical asset that you can touch. The stock market is way easier though, no upkeep, and you can buy and sell within minutes.

It is estimated 2 million single family home (more than half still have mortgages) are being rented out by the former residents. In my state, there is 120 day eviction moratorium, so on month 5, $10K is needed two more months to get the eviction paperwork and then get in the queue for service and forcible. 7 to 8 months of mortgage payments with no income.

[@Bubbasizer]

All investments have risk though, gotta be willing to accept the risk factor and control the controllables. The stock market would have tanked as well if the fed didn't save it.

[@angelaperagine9041]

I have rentals where nobody is paying, can’t evict, even when I can, they will get 90 more days. Meanwhile, house needs maintenance and property tax bills are due. It is going to cost a small fortune to sell between commissions, legal, capital gains tax, depreciation recapture tax, etc.

[@karloblaquera7098]

I appreciate Dave’s take on this. He’s obviously an expert on Real Estate and all the work that goes into it. Kinda confusing since Dave always says to never go into debt buying rentals, which i agree with, and he making this guy lean towards real estate when the caller obviously has no clue how the stock market works. Personally, buying and holding individual stock long term is not recommended. (Warren Buffet and Mark Cuban agree with me). Dont get me wrong, its better than putting your money in a savings account, but if you know what your doing in the stock market you can make steady income. This would have been impossible without youtube or twitter, but anyone can learn how to make money today on stocks.

[@duckmcnutty]

You outperform in real estate because of leverage (if you borrow money) combined with appreciation. Paying in cash eliminates this advantage.
