Is Stocks better than Real Estate Investing? Or Is Real Estate Investing better than stocks? While both investment vehicles have PROs and CONs, Sam Kwak, one of the Kwak Brothers, is here to make a case as to why real estate investing is BETTER than stocks. Real Estate Investing is generally deemed to be a better investment than stocks for the following reasons: 1. Cashflow (Monthly Income) 2. Forced Appreciation 3. Being able to Leverage 4. Depreciate Real Property 5. Ability to Insure Property Being able to rent out a property for monthly income has been the core pillar of what makes real estate a more favorable investment vehicle. With Stocks, you can still earn dividends but often time it's hard to make a living off of the earnings. Unless you are a large shareholder, the dividend payout is very little per share. Another reason why real estate investing is better than stocks is the ability to force appreciate the property. With real estate, you have a better sphere of influence to what you can do to appreciate the value of the property. You can paint the property ,put new flooring and re-do the bathroom to raise the value of the property and then sell the property. With stocks, your sphere of influence is often limited. So there is not much you can do to increase the value of the stocks. The ability to also borrow money and leverage real estate has also been an advantage of stocks. While there are abilities to borrow money to buy stocks, it's often very risky and there's not much you can do to insure losses. In real estate, you can often put 10-25% down to purchase the property and still enjoy the benefits of renting the property or force appreciate the property to collect income.
