For instance, they're opposites in terms of liquidity, physicality, age of the business model, volatility, etc., etc.  ...and, my impression is that they're also opposites in terms of the mindsets of the investors (e.g.; many RE investors have comparatively longer time horizons, and I would assume that most RE investors have a lower tolerance for risk).I'm a RE investor, and don't have any crypto, but I have plenty of friends who hold a lot of crypto, and we've discussed crypto endlessly...At the risk of sounding like a luddite, even after years of discussions and reading countless articles, I still don't feel like I have a good understanding of crypto.  ...and frankly, I'm skeptical of people who claim to have a thorough understanding of it (yet, there are no shortage of self-proclaimed "experts" who describe crypto with the confidence of someone predicting a sunrise!)

And although @Michael Plaks makes a great case about tenant destruction (he doesn't trust anyone :), if your model was a short-term rental you won't have nearly as much wear and tear I would imagine. 

You have so many upsides to RE investing like depreciation/tax advantages, appreciation, different business models you can run (str, MTR, ltr), long term appreciation.

This is why most forecasting is modelling the bottom of Class B/C would be around 6-7% cap rate.

And when you do a cash out refinance right before a sale (conventional wisdom says within 12 months or so) you are taking part of the profit out.The answer is to adjust your model just a little bit.
