Real Estate vs REITs: Which Investment is Better?

#1 question when investing - Real Estate vs Reits: Which Investment is Better? Which one will make more money? Let's find out

Today we're looking at one of the most popular questions about where to invest your money? Just like the Roth IRA debate! Which investment is better? Real Estate? Or Reit Stocks? While the stock market is generally considered the best investment, the real answer is far more tricky.

First, what is a Reit? A REIT is a stock, it stands for Real Estate Investment Trust. As a shareholder of a REIT, you get paid on a schedule in the form of passive income - dividends. REITs can be considered dividend stocks. Dividends are my personal favorite way of getting paid. Most of the stocks I own are in the Robinhood App.

Let's settle this debate once and for all!

Real Estate or REITs - which do you guys like better?

[Js]

why I like REIT's:
1. less skill needed
2. less money up front
3. more passive
4. easy to liquidate

[cherrytung]

REITs have a much lower entrance point (cost wise) - I'd start with REITs first, then do real estate when I have enough money 🤑

Our country is having our first REIT listing ever. Happy that this asset class will be made available for more people in the Philippines.

I like you. You're very helpful. Thanks bro. Subbed.

Love my REITs! Started out with monthly distributors like LTC, O, and EPR because of the psychological factors you mentioned. It's also come in handy a few times when unexpected expenses like major car repairs came up, pretty easy to turn off reinvestment for the month and cash out those dividends. One thing you sort of touch on but definitely bears re-emphasis is that with REITs you can tap into the expertise of people in very different fields. Anyone can learn how to run a rental house but it's not so easy to develop your own data center (COR), retirement home (LTC), driving range (EPR), or college student housing (ACC). Big help diversification-wise and you can improve your returns by investing in REITs that specialize in fields with a solid macro outlook for the long term.

Real estate for sure but any money coming in that you don’t have to work for is great. Absolutely great job at this andrei. Also outro is awesome

Another great video Andrei, As a 30 year investor in real estate and other alternative investments. I would agree these are two completely different paths for investing as you say. One is what we as a family wealth office say a pure play (real estate) the other is a third party play (Reits). We use both one as a pure tax right off on our profits over all and the other to boost are dividends returns in our stock market portfolio. We own our pure properties through two vehicles, Individually thru some type of LLC or LLP or Family partnership or through our two Crowd funding plate forums. One is for short term holds and the other is very long term holds. The cleaner less stressful way is owning the Reits. This decision really comes down to how a person or family wants to build their legacy, for us it made sense to own both. The other reason for us to own pure real estate is because we also own a residential, commercial building company, a real estate brokerage firm and a demolition and rehab company. Hope this helped! I appreciate all the time and effort you put in to your work. Keep it going!
