Real estate vs. Bitcoin

[arwin100]

I guess it depends on the real estate a bit as well. If you are going to buy another house and rent it and that is it, I would rather get bitcoin over that, having 10 houses makes no sense in my minds, if you want to have a house you live in, go do that and it makes sense, but if you buy 10 more just so you can get rent, it makes zero sense. -snip-

What do you mean by that is it? Lol, what else do you expect? You can rent/lease a house and then you start getting passive earnings. A guaranteed source of income to be precise. Not to mention, the value of house property also appreciates over time. Where as if you invest on bitcoin, there isn't a guarantee that you will be earning profits every month. True the value of bitcoin will rise in the long run, but what if you need money unexpectedly? You can liquidate it, but what if the value dropped? You will be making loss.

Even though we know the potential of Bitcoin but still it cannot defeat the real estate investment in terms of long term appreciation, it can really give us passive income where we can rely on in terms of crisis or but we need to get a asset which is near to city or any accessible areas so that we will not get out of renter's which we can get the profits from it. Although Bitcoin can give the same daily earnings but still it's a huge risk since probabilities to lose still there.

Deregulation is inconsequential at this point and real estate values have correlation with foreign exchange rates.  Supply in RE alludes to the property you want to purchase or sell. As a result, currency is in demand because of EMH in due to supply/demand. RE is simply one of the assets tied to availability of real loanable funds.  Availability of real loanable funds.  Fx rate.  Cost of goods.  The reason real estate prices are declining is because there is a decline in availability of real loanable funds. A decline in loanable funds is a result of foreign exchange rate decrease.  The market is responding to an inevitable future FX decline. 

Real estate's value increases with time, I can bet that if you check properties that were being sold in years past you’re going to see a huge difference with the prices they are being sold at this time. Real estate is a market that doesn’t have much volatility and from what I have learnt, your losses are minimized with the length of time that you will be able to hold.

It is like a normal thing that happens with real estate, and I don’t know if that’s going to change this time around, it might continue like that or maybe not.

The real state takes a lot of time to grow while bitcoin has enough power to increase.
Plus there are many advantages of bitcoins. You can earn more money with the trading, signature campaign, and take participate in projects.
I never recommend real estate investment its a highly risky way to take profit. Bitcoin is volatile while real estate not.
So its better to chose cryptocurrencies like bitcoins and make smart income.

Real estate represents ownership in something tangible and real. Long term, the price tends to outpace inflation, so it’s a good investment for this reason alone, but it also produces income on top of that. Bitcoin does not, and on top of that, is extremely volatile. I’ll take real estate over bitcoin as an asset class any day.

   I don't know for others, but in my town the prices of real estates are rising in the past few months! Some people I talked with
say there's a huge demand for houses around the town, near lakes, mountains. They explain that because of Covid-19 people
couldn't live homes, go abroad, they focused on buying some land out of town where they can run away in any moment.
   It's good to take real estate, but it has expenses, it's not like you can just take it and leave it there, you need to pay taxes for that,
there're other monthly and yearly expenses. With Bitcoins, you don't have troubles, you just put it in the wallet and keep them,
with real estates you have a lot of work and expenses.

Generally, it's only the very rich who would buy extra property they're not regularly using. There are plenty of people who own additional property other than their primary residence as an investment. In that way, the property produces income for the extra expenses associated with owning the property and owning it doesn't cost money.

It's not applicable to all countries, here in our place the real estate price is increasing even at the time of the pandemic, it's still business as usual banks here private and government are still giving loans and there is a moratorium on existing loans, this is not permanent and the banking institutions know this so they have no reason here why they stop giving loans.

The both industry are in a much different place to deal but I agreed that real estate will continues to grow and appreciate in value. People still need a place to live, so it might continue like that. Our cryptocurrencies continues to be volatile as ever. Having everything in crypto is absurd. Spread your money out into crypto, stocks, real estate ans so on.

What is better at the moment? To invest in real estate or to buy bitcoin ?

Check your nearest locale if the real estate properties value went down because of the pandemic. Owners who have probably near to bankruptcy will be forced to sell it on sale. While for bitcoin, it's a matter of when you will start selling what you have bought. The price doesn't matter if you're thinking that this asset will go long term and that's the same for real estate properties. But if you have enough money to invest, I'll take both of it, I prefer both of these assets.

which one do you prefer and understand?because if none then better not invested on those unless all the money you want to invest is amount that you can risk to lose?

but since you are in crypto market,then my advise is invest in Bitcoin and just go wait for the right time to sell off.

Real estate and cryptocurrencies have one thing in common. If invested in the wrong property it ends with loss, as per that if invested on wrong cryptocurrency then it'll end with a massive loss. Whether it is real estate or bitcoin, when the market is supportive we need to profit out of it. I'll suggest to go invest 25% on real estate and the rest on cryptocurrencies. Surely you'll have a security with the 25% and the massive profit from the 75% depending on the holding.

RE and BTC are options. speculatively, RE will sell well in the future because it is usually closely related to property, be it buildings or land. it all depends on how the form of RE .  BTC is full of speculation and uncertainty. if demand is low, BTC is no longer valuable, whereas if RE demand is low, it can be used for other purposes because the goods exist and are real.

[GeorgeJohn]

hmm I still would choose bitcoin as an investment.. Real Estate nowadays are hard to invest because thst depends in the country, taxations snd location

Shall it base on a personal interest because myself I referred cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin investment more than Estate investment,because in estate management investment it required a serious supervision and stress in order for it to function properly, at times it needs senior advocates who will guides the estate to avoid destruction or attacks from other partners because their is alot of competition in such investment.

[goldade]

I'm sure I have replied to topics like this in several threads on this forum already.
Although bitcoin has some advantages over real estate, it doesn't rule out the fact that real estate is a great method of investment. If you believe real estate is declining, I think it is only in certain parts of the world. Real estate is still a good form of investment in my country. I can't begin to list out the numerous benefits of investing in real estate. I do believe that the only best thing to do is to invest in both if you can spare. Investors has been advised to diversify their assets over the years and it still remains the best advice.

What is better at the moment? To invest in real estate or to buy bitcoin? I want to see everyone's opinion. Recently I have talked with one real estate agent in Kew and he said that it is better to invest in real estate. With the current pandemic, he said that he saw a really big increase in sales of the houses. That real estate agent was really good and it helped me to find a really nice house in Kew. I have talked with him and I can say that he is really smart. Totally recommend him. I am really satisfied.

it cannot be debated that Real Estate still the best investment for now, but in the middle of this "PANDEMIC" you should be able to think of other investments that can make money faster than Real Estate, we know that selling Real Estate is not as easy as other investments (gold, commodities, cryptocurrencies, forex, and stocks) takes a week or a month to sell it.  we will not know when you really need money, it is much better to save some of your money for other investments then you invest the rest in Real Estate..

People do not understand that if you want to go into real estate you are going to deal with a lot more stuff and not everyone can get into real estate neither. For example, I do not have any money to buy any real estate, I am much too poor to be buying any place at all, which leaves me with only bitcoin investment in this versus, not even a question for me because I have absolutely zero way to get a real estate so it is simple answer.

However even for people who can buy a house, it is not really that easy to buy any real estate and just done with it, you have to deal with taxes, income and real estate, you have to deal with renters (and that is a big issue) and you have to deal with maintenance as well, whereas you simply just buy bitcoin and you are done.

Many people think that owning property will always be profitable because its value will increase over time, even though property can become a burden for the owner because there are routine expenses that must be paid, the property is really maximal for investment when it can be rented out, used as a boarding house or used as a budget lodging house. When the property is not productive it will become liabilities.

Why you are comparing of real estate with bitcoin!! Bitcoin is the unique and can't be compared to any of asset in this world.The common between this to is,it will depend on the market and demand in the market.If you compare the price more than 2 years,it will enormous change in price.Either in positive or negative way.If the demand will sustain,you get good price any time.

25 75 is ok, i guess. But if I have a lot of money, putting them all in real estate is never a bad idea since in my country, houses are extremely expensive and its price continues to go up no matter how the situation of the economy are. For instance, during this pandemic, real estate only dropped for a month and then, it has steadily increased since then

Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are really promising at the moment. So be wise when making an investment because as you say, one mistake can lead to a huge loss. Nobody wants to lose their money in this field. Being rich is everyone's dream here. So, be a wise investor

I think that in this crisis, loans will have decreased in banks due to the economic instability of the moment. Commercial activities in countries that have not flattened the contagion curve are reduced. Perhaps in certain cases Real estate is working normally. While Bitcoin is an asset available for investment 24/7 and 365 days a year.

At current prices I'd rather own more real estate than more bitcoin. I just don't view huge gains as likely at the current prices for bitcoin and the risk from the volatility is too high.  Real estate over the long term acts as a hedge against inflation and also produces an income stream on top of that, which bitcoin doesn't. It's just a better asset class in my opinion.

I see the same thing.  Real estate is an attractive investment because during this pandemic, only investments in real estate can be repaid, aka debt.  But the value of real estate itself will increase every year.  Everyone needs shelter and that's for sure.  When compared to bitcoin, not everyone finds bitcoin attractive, not even everyone needs bitcoin.  The conclusion is based on the needs of human life itself, investing in real estate will be more profitable than bitcoin itself.
