From Beardy Brandon:Why RE is the top investment in a bear market

[Juan V Lopez]

Brandon Turner posted this on his IG recently from the Multi-Family Investor Network Conference and I thought it was a fantastic hit list of why RE is still the top investment vehicle, even in a bear market. This was specifically meant for MF, but I think a majority of it still applies to smaller properties (1-4 units).

• Rents are increasing
• Housing shortage
• Low interest rates (Commercial interest rates are still low compared to residential interest rates, 1-2% lower in some areas)
• Investors less trusting of Wall Street
• Real Estate is proven (Unlike Crypto, which is still setting its foundation
• Tenant-Landlord laws
• Tax incentives

When people are consolidating, when people are playing defense – that's the time to get aggressive and make deals. Anyone have anything to add to the list?
