[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) Our rental properties aren't instead of stocks, they're in addition to stocks. Diversification. 2) Rentals can provide income without having to sell any assets; 3) Rental income is much less affected by economic downturns than stocks - this can vary by the type of rentals you have (commercial/high end/apartment) but we have units that are geared toward LMC families. That said, it's much more hassle than just throwing a couple hundred K into stocks; you're right on that point. We have a good property management company now but it was ugly for a while there.[/quote] +1 Most of our assets are in stocks, but we diversified with a vacation rental property to offset stock market risks. Historically, this area rented well even during the 2008-2012 economic downturn.[/quote]
