My view is that buying and holding real estate is not an effective investment strategy in our current economic environment, for a few reasons.
1) Real estate is more interest rate sensitive than it is inflation sensitive, so given our current circumstances it is likely to go down in real terms
2) It is a fixed asset that is easy to tax, which limits its impacts on your ability to diversify
3) Real estate is nailed down, so investing in it makes it more difficult to move money from one place to another
That’s my view, in a nutshell. I’m curious to hear if you agree.

Throughout history, there have been two things that people have always wanted as a source of wealth. One was gold and then real estate. And what do you think about if you’re nervous about paper currency and the valuation of it, why not just buy real estate and hold on to it? Is that not a good idea? Um, it’s not a good idea. Uh, it’s not a good idea because um, uh, real estate is more interest rate sensitive than it is even inflation sensitive. So if you were to say if this environment happens does it go it goes down in real terms. It’s also an asset that is a fixed asset that is the easiest asset to tax. In other words you in any place you’re in a particular state putting in real estate taxes means that they could always get the money and so it doesn’t it’s not an effective diversifier that way. And also being able to move money from one place to another. The real estate is nailed

In the stock world, money really does make more money. If you can’t keep up with the margin calls, your retirement dreams can get shredded fast.
There’s truth in the liquidity and rate-sensitivity argument, but income-producing real estate still solves problems markets can’t — cash flow, tax efficiency, and control. In the right structures, those benefits outweigh the volatility.
Ray Dalio's point on interest-rate sensitivity and taxability is a crucial, contrarian warning against treating real estate as a perfect inflation hedge.
