Instead of putting 50k in the stock market they can put it into a house where they'll receive 50% cash flow and 50% profit from future sale of house. 

Otherwise stock pile cash and risk rates going higher and higher over time.

My stock portfolio is risky, my real estate portfolio is conservative.

Stocks have continued to demonstrate extreme volatility and risk.

@Tyler Psenicska reinvest in real estate, you will always make more in real estate than any stock market investment.

I don't think buying bonds is good practice for buying stocks and i think it's a similar comparison.

If you focus on those and are willing to take risks (risks are why real estate provide higher returns than the stock market), with the knowledge to back up your decision to take the risk, be ready to pull the trigger.Condos/Townhomes are great for hands off maintenance, but terrible as investments.

Also do the same from 2005 to 2011 in the same city, what were the features that contribute home sale price during the Great Recession.One can step one step further using stock analysis tools to under stand demand and supply, multiple offers to predict when the home prices will max out.

all three are distinctly different in form and function.roofstock is more of a MLS type system highly automated representing civilian sellers by and large and some turn key companies will list their stock on Roofstock.. its pretty snazzy however after care is between you and the PM.Homeunion has some hybrid of turnkey marketing company in the same vane as Jason Hartman Maverick Norada etc.MI is what many consider the gold standard in turn key investing.. very deep experience in the space.. and control all aspects..
