    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.

    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.

    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.

      What is the benefit of doing both if they each provide similar returns? If it’s diversification for risk, they both have risk so what’s the point?
      Having a 50/50 split won’t provide you any protection against overall risk. If the stock market ever does poorly, real estate will too. They are not inversely related.

    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.

    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!

    @zakuzeon7382 Год назад +17

    I agree with everything except the ending! I think if you're on a tight budget it's better to START with RE. If you have a big budget START with Stocks. Why? Because of leverage. Like with your example, if you're just starting out with $100 you buy 1 share of, say, MMM. That 1 share pays a little over $1 every 3 months. 20 years you have $240. Yay. You need millions of dollars IN HAND to see any progress with dividend stocks. Technically it's the same with RE, except you can LEVERAGE the purchase, so you can (in theory, not so easy in practice) start with millions of dollars of the banks money. Long story short, you need 100% to invest in the stock market, whereas you only need 20% to invest in RE. If you want 1 million in stocks, you need 1 million dollars. (technically you can borrow it, but the rate of return won't keep pace with the interest rate) If you want a 1 million dollar house you only need $200k! Leverage in RE is both it's greatest advantage & greatest weakness! More RE investors sink because of leverage than any other factor, so be careful!

      When the stock market crashes, consider it on sale and buy more. It always goes up more than down, something like 25-30% it goes down and 70-75% it goes up. Otherwise, don’t budge. Don’t make long term decisions on temporary circumstances.

    2. It will bring in income rent.
    3. Rent will surely go UP (stock maybe
    4. Real Estate has better $.right offs from taxes.

    Wonderful video. You can also make a lot of money building in real estate. You can easily double your money. But you’d need some experience with contractors and have a sense of what a good layout of a house or building should look like. As for rental properties, small apartments in countries in eastern Europe are great. Very low montly expenses and zero inheritance tax (if you want to give something to your children without the hassle). Land can make you super rich. My father bought land in Lebanon for a dollar per meter squared. He developed the land with roads and electricity; and divided up the land into smaller plots, and sold each plot for 40$ per meter (but after 15 years had passed) He’d always joke that it was like selling pieces of cake.

    Excellent insightful video Toby thank you .
    my 2 cents :
    Dividend paying companies tend to grow slower if they do at all since earned capital is not reinvested in full ..
    also , dividends are taxable on a personal level ( I don't mean to teach the teacher .. just making the point .. )
    Stocks are fine and what you see is what you get i.e. their face value . yes they are liquid but don't generate liquidity , and don't build EQUITY in the background .
    I own a California C-Corp . my company owns commercial properties in California ( NOT office space ) ALL rented out zero vacancy in the last 12 years.
    I benefit from all kinds of deductibles , add value to my properties by regular improvements ( and deduct their cost ) , build equity and generate CASHFLOW !!
    AND that magical 39 year long yearly "depreciation"
    If I compare myself to my big shot friends who are Stocks fans , over the last 12 years I have saved myself TONS of money on Xanax , blood pressure meds , hair transplant, sleeping pills, a divorce, and manicure, never bit my nails .. and frankly I look better 😊

      Counterpoint: Every one of my friends who's invested in rental real estate has tenant horror stories. Squatters who won't pay the rent and then trash the place when they finally get evicted. Turning the place into a house of drugs and criminality. Hoarders who ruin the property through their disgusting lifestyle. Sure these are just anecdotes, but 100% of my personal anecdotes are that owning real estate comes with massive personal stress. By contrast, I've invested in stocks and have found it largely unstressful because I don't care about the daily fluctuations, I just keep my mind on the long-term.

      not every venture is for everyone, and every head is wired different.
      any investor in any investment has to meet certain criteria before any rosy picture is painted.
      it takes talent, extensive experience, diligence, consistency and good business sense.
      with income generating properties, it all starts with location, location, location.
      then come the attributes of the landlord, including proper screening ie tenant's fico score, personal history, references, etc.
      if landlord is financially vulnerable and grabs the first applicant with leniency and exceptions, then they are asking for big trouble.
      in my case, we are talking about commercial real estate, where security deposit amount and eviction laws are different compared to those for residential real estate and to the advantage of the landlord. this is true in most if not all States.
      you need be good with numbers, be able to see the bigger, the much bigger, picture and see the different possible scenarios down the long haul and have the necessary access to cushion or emergency funds if need arises, and it WILL arise ..
      there is a secret i will share with you ( in the name of adding value to Toby's page here ) , my asking rent is always about 20% lower than the current market rate . why ? because when i have NO vacancy and my tenant pays their rent on the first of each month without any delay, i am way ahead of my competitor who often has an empty space waiting for the tenant who will pay him that higher rent they are asking for ..
      when you ask for top rent dollar, your tenant is always tempted or even planning to default and move out .. because those few months they were occupying your property as tenant, they were actively looking for a cheaper space to move into .
      with rental property, owner has many tools at their disposal and in their control that they can and should utilize to make a potentially significant contribution to the execution and success of the venture unlike in the stock market where all you can take is one decision, with no tools at hand, and can take one of two possible actions at a time : buy or sell , and where you find yourself in a world of uncontrollable and unpredictable factors, where your attributes contribute little to nil to the execution and success of the investment .

      This thread is excellent.
      So I've spent the last 3 months educating myself on RE to move from passive to active RE investing.
      The benefits of rental investing is ACTL: Appreciation, cash flow, taxes, and lowering of the principal.
      Stocks appreciate too .
      Stocks may have cash flow butt cash flow means the coming isn't re investing in growth which hurts appreciation.
      Stocks have tax advantages but not sure if there are as broad number of ways to get them in taxes. (There are entire books about "tax free wealth" for RE investing. )
      Stocks don't directly allow you to build both equity and Cath flow by paying your loan principal over time.
      But I agree that REAL estate (RE) is more controllable and stocks owning is passive (unless you're an activist billionaire).
      So if you like to bet on your own competence and aren't too busy, then RE is for you.
      Tenants and toilets is real but you can educate yourself to counter this risks like smart section 8 screening and property management.
      If you need liquidity, then so stocks . I'm a busy person but have invested time in real estate education because I saw that active investors can strategically build multi million dollar net worth over a decade if competent and prayerful.

    The share price of stocks is adjusted for any dividends paid, so it's a wash in terms of gains.
    In terms of taxes, non-dividend stocks are better. When you sell stocks, you can sell at least some and only pay LT cap gains tax. With dividends, you pay the higher regular income tax.

    I am new to the stock market/crypto. Every stock that I bought so far, I was out of luck because I bought them when they were expensive. I feel I missed out on all the stock opportunities so far for the tech stocks. I believe having 175K yearly income would be a good investment so I want to plug all my savings into the stock market. I know this sounds a bit dull but I would like to know if I should learn investing or let somebody else (more capable like a FA) do it for me? Please share your thoughts. I am kind of tired of searching for a good stock to buy and losing all the good opportunities.

    If you are currently renting and have less than 100k net worth, start with real estate. The advantage for real estate is that it gives you the power of leverage. You can buy a 300k home with putting 3.5% down (10k). If that house appreciates 4.5% annually, you have 373k in equity after five years, plus 20k of principal you paid down, plus 10k from your initial down payment. By simply living in that house, you now have a net worth of 103k (10x your initial investment of 10k) in just 5 years. Plus, if you sell the house, it is tax free. On the contrary, that same 10k invested in the stock market would only become 16k in five years. This is why real estate is so powerful. I love stocks too but it doesn't compare to real estate for the average person.

    I started investing in stocks just before COVID and since then there’s been 3 or 4 major crashes of negative 10% or more. Some were terrifying crashes where 30% or more was wiped out in a few days. If you invest 1 million dollars are you prepared to see that wiped out to 500k dollars and not panic. If you can take this kind of thing in your stride then I’d say stocks are a simpler option.

    Investors can leverage their fund for real estates, not for stocks. You can put down 200k for a million dollar investment property, but you can only invest 200k in stocks. But stocks are less stressful and doesn't call you when the roof is leaking and the bathroom is stuck.

    Couldn't agree more that you should own rental real estate and dividend paying stocks. Personally I like to buy large cap tech stocks that pay a dividend like msft, appl, and nvda. Growing dividends are great, but the capital appreciation from growth stocks is awesome. Now if you are actively retired then don't buy growth dividend buy dividend kings, aristos etc.

  • @ttrowbridge9826
    @ttrowbridge9826 Год назад +1

    The issue with rentals (and I own and have watched family with rental properties) people tend to buy into the “bargain” properties. buildings, houses, in bad areas, poorly kept, and or deferred maint and they wonder why they struggle. your better tenants aren’t renting in junk areas with junk properties and junk schools. they buy the wrong properties and wonder why they can’t get a return, and why the property needs 10k in work every year.
    Agree stick to stocks first till the right rental prop enters the scenario, then roll a part of that rental income back into the dividend stocks monthly. after two years of growth on the rental and stocks being fed look for another property. let one feed the other and back and forth… but know what you’re buying and make sure your tenant pool isn’t bad because of the property you’re buying are all wrong.

    I love real estate because all my investments are long term considerations; 15-20years. Create businesses to finance my short-term financial needs. Real estate is for when I decided I don’t want to do anything which I don’t think will happen; so I guess it is for generational wealth.

  • @Solihul886
    @Solihul886 23 дня назад

    Buying rentals is the same as buying stock. You can buy more quality and passive investments or buy more tedious ones. But properties generate fully disposable income if i take the 10% return from the s&p gain every single year like i do for my property, that stock isnt compunding since the seed figure remains the same, whilst my rents increase annually. The gap expands further, saying stocks is more liquid is a half truth depending on how you explain the secnario
    One thing that never changes is that for the vast majority of the time, you will generate far more wealth passively with property if you buy quality rather than quantity and the work is minimal and i can invest in stocks with the rental income. S&P with a 10% average return doesnt beat the same roi or more on property income and a similar return from its capital appreciation

    REITs have people whose full-time job is managing the properties and growing the NAV, why would I ever try to manage property on my own for a similar return when I could invest in a REIT who pays out 90% of their net income as a dividend and is more diversified? Why wouldn't an ideal portfolio be Index ETFs and a REIT ETF, that portfolio would likely have an unbeatable alpha with a high return.

  • @chstr0ng
    @chstr0ng Год назад

    Great explanation! Sadly non-US people pay 30% tax on dividends which nobody mentions. So if I buy for example JEPI which gives me an average dividend of 7% p.a., 30% of the 7% go to US tax as a non-US person, and then leaves me with a much lower compounding rate than a US citizen. Hence for non-US people in my eyes it makes sense to speculate more on growth with a smaller dividend, such as the S&P 500. Past performance isn't a guarantee for future performance, but due to the tax implications I'd rather do that. Still need to look at money market funds and how those are taxed now that interest rates are up.

    If stocks and real estate provide about equal returns, why wouldn’t you want the more liquid of the two which is obviously stocks. You also have a much lower barrier to entry.
    You can have liquid investments in real estate by investing in REITS or some other liquid real estate product without tying up your money in actual real estate.
    Oh and by the way, managing rental real estate also brings with it many many headaches you don’t have with stocks.

    Dividends are treated as long term capital gains? So you're not taxed on the first $40k to $80k of gains?
    Real Estate definitely takes more capital even if it's OPM. The biggest difference is leverage imo.
    It'd be great to compare dollar for dollar flippers, wholesalers, creative financiers, buy & holders vs active traders, options, and long term index investors

    • @please866
      @please866 Год назад

      Exactly the biggest difference is leverage. In real estate you have leverage in stocks you don't. You can buy a house by just putting down a fraction of the amount and loaning the rest.

    • @TobyMathis
      @TobyMathis  Год назад

      Qualified dividends are taxed at your long term capital gain rates - so, yes, if you are single, 0% for the first $44,625 or $89,250 for MFJ.
