#85. Everything you need to know about investing in real estate.

The Mind Money Spectrum Podcast

Investing in real estate isn't bad, but that doesn't make it good.
In this episode, Trishul and Aaron explore real estate as an asset class. They discuss individual investment properties, non-traded REITs, and publicly traded REITs. Real estate investments include equity and fixed income components, and they can have a low correlation to stocks and bonds. But it is the leverage that mortgages provide that makes all the difference. Even so, do you really need real estate in your portfolio?
