I think that is only true when you compare annual appreciation of stocks to real estate over that time. For the average Joe to buy RE when it is inexpensive, with great financing and low interest rates is the true no brainer. Cash flow, appreciation, paying down a mortgage and tax shelter over time has made your parents stars with probably an annual IRR well in excess of 25% over several decades. Unfortunately in our Florida market as well as all other bubble markets we are at the exact opposite end of the spectrum today.
