@CL Tumlin Lots of good responses on here but something that hasnt really been brought up to much is that it depends...
Good investments are strategy based in order to get the return that you need. Also investing in real estate doesn't have to mean looking for rent on the first and fixing toilets.
A good investment for me at 32 may not be a good investment for someone who is closer to retirement age, but it could be. I focus on property that cash flows from day 1(short term) and allows tenants to pay down financing(long term).
A way to keep investing and not deal with the day to day that I do might be as a hard money lender for someone willing and able to hustle. Or use property management to make yourself as passive as you would like. You can always invest in syndication, or commercial deals as well.
Not saying that those scenarios apply to you directly. Only meant to convey that the beauty in investing in real estate is that over time you can grow or change as your situation requires.
