Real Estate Investment Returns
The current housing downturn is one of the worst in the past fifty years. Key signs of a recovery is the housing stock shrinking, and home prices falling at a slower pace.
In Atlanta the purchase of real estate may still be a good investment.
Between 1975 and 2007 single-family home prices grew just 1.8% above the rate of inflation, according to a study by Harvard’s Joint Center for Housing Studies.
By comparison stocks have historically returned more than 7% over inflation.
None of this means purchasing real estate is a bad buy as some markets returns are closer—or above those of the stock market average.
What the numbers don’t show is the value of having a place to live—as you have to live somewhere.
It means that it may not be the growth machine that it has been touted as.
A different real estate product is worth another look.
Real Estate Investment Trusts, or REITs, give you a basket of largely commercial properties.
They pay a healthy income and can diversify your stock-and-bond portfolio to lower overall volatility.
They are worth considering if you
have no debt, a properly funded emergency fund, a properly funded retirement
plan and you are in a strong cash position.
