If you are just in it for the ROI, the stock market is clearly better.I don't think people have a passion to drop tens of thousands to rent an ugly house out that you didn't build or suite your taste, and will never live in to a stranger that you never met.

We got a taste of that as a result of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, which occurred before all that money printing.

Of course you have to be happy with the finished product and need to have clearly communicated your requirements, but that doesn't mean that you had a hand in them turning out a crappy tasting cupcake or a website where your customer's information is open for the whole world to see.I completely disagree. 

So I am well versed in Washington State, but I always found the market to be extremely expensive for my taste (coming from Atlanta where a $50,000 house would cost $800,000 + in Washington State).

Getting a little taste of cash flow would make one want to stay open a little longer and before you know it your life is gobbled up.Retirement could get one in trouble if not careful.

My kids know the taste of Crab, Lobster.
