my family does a lot of real estate and have multiple rental properties. i prefer putting the money in and forgetting about it. the hassle factor of real estate and risks are just unappealing to me.

[Melanie]

I have both, over time I have come to appreciate the dividend stocks far more. The older I get the more I appreciate the fact that my dividend stocks are far more passive.

[davidrpriest]

Both!! I love a 50/50 split of Diversified Stock Index Funds ( I like Vanguard - No stock picking - I'm not Buffet! ) and Real Estate. The real estate can be active ownership ( that is a business and you need to learn it ) or totally passive ( Example : LP in the multi family syndication ). This is a great set up that does well in all environments. Cash and Bonds will always payout less than inflation so they are investments that are guaranteed losers. Have some cash for emergencies but no more than a year of expenses. As you mentioned stocks are very liquid. Real Estate is not. 50/50 balance on these assets is ideal. Thank you Mr. Mathis for breaking this down.

Depends on 2 things. 1) Fear of the stock market and 2) How much do you want to physically work? I am a long term stock investor, and I have an iron stomach for downturns...in fact, it is a great buying opportunity. I do absolutely nothing physically, just invest in a boring ETF at USA Market Level at low cost. My landlord has 30 properties. He is busy day and night. This is a real business, he employs a handyman 100% of the time, and has numerous relationships with other service providers. He has to deal with renters problems personally. In my 5 years here, both heat pumps, water heater, 2 huge garage spring coils, kitchen garbage disposal, washer/dryer/refrigerator problems. We have also had 3 serious water pipe leaks, and 2 more leaks from drain systems. The handyman has been here so many times, that I know him personally. IMO, this house for my landlord must be a financial and physical disaster...but he shoulders on. He is a great landlord.

Im an investor in both as well but I’m surprised you didn’t discuss amount of work each takes. Stocks are hassle free compared to rental real estate.

[klunnikov]

I think investors should always put their cash to work, especially In 2024, we'll start to see more market diversification. I'm hoping to invest about $350k of my savings in stocks against next year. Hope to make millions in 2024

[mattm]

A big factor in answering this question is a person's lifestyle. It's not that some people don't like real estate. It's just that they live very mobile and/or carefree lifestyles, and they simply do not want to deal with owning real estate and being a landlord.

[RB-jeyj]

Stocks, will never ever ask you for repairs, missed rent, new water heaters, clogged drains, new roofs, new hvac system or a missed battery on a smoke detector! SCHD! is the way to go! I'm seriously considering selling both properties and putting it all in into my current portfolio of 5k shares of SCHD! Real Estate is good if you have deep pockets!

[timothybancroft]

Passive REIT owning is the best for me for Real Estate exposure and dividend paying stocks. I also use growth stocks to fuel new purchases.

[qingyuzeng]

For last 20 years, S&P has been growing much better than real estate for a fact.

[brettsorge]

A lot of these choices are dependent on interest rates. The last couple of years with high interest rates real estate was King. Now with long term interest rates lower then stock look better and real estate is easing. As for REITs only warehousing and storage is still decent.

[clarkewegener]

I’ve been all in on RE and have been wanting to start a Dividend portfolio. Your points on stock secured loans and selling covered calls have convinced me to take a hard break from RE and focus 100% on building and “renting out” my dividend portfolio. Really great content! Keep up the good work!

[maxsmart]

I have been all in on real estate since the 70’s have been passive income since the 90’s so yeah RE gets my vote.

[ldstiesto]

Man! All your videos are outstanding! I’ve learned a lot… thanks

[tyjameson]

Toby is right. Hold your real estate for the tax benefits. Hold stocks for the ease of liquidity 👍🏼🙏🏼🇺🇸❤️🙌🏽💪🏽👏

[andersonandrew]

I like to do both. I own several apartment buildings and twenty dividend paying companies.

[beaumac]

The difference in real estate is the ability to leverage your investment 5x with a mortgage at 20% down. You do a good job explaining the difference between the cash flow aspect, but the appreciation of real estate makes it much more valuable over time. Also, you can borrow against that leveraged value as well so you get 5x the borrowing capacity.

Real estate
Tenants, headaches with maintaining the property. List goes on. Thanksathis for differentiating the 2

[azcoach]

I sold my rental property as I just got burnt out. Some tenants were good, some not so good. With new squatters rights its something you have to constantly stay on top of if your rental is vacant in between tenants. I knew nothing about being a landlord when I tried. I knew nothing about stocks until I read and then watched dozens of videos. Started with $500 on Robinhood. Did well with my selection, added more, then more. I am not where I need to be yet but I've learned from Toby as well as others. Scared money don't make money. The only way to be where you want to be in 10 years is to start. Compound interest!

[tomaswu]

Impressive and clear explanation. Then what are the upsides of rental real-estate? comparing to Dividend paying stocks.
