Stock market vs real estate

Where are you focusing your investments in the next 5 - 10 yrs? Many dabble in both but where do you see more returns?
By real estate I mean residential.

I think if you have the time, real estate is the better investment.

I had to make this decision 25 years ago. A wise man told me 'Zach, people are naturally attracted to water. It's where we came from."
So, I bought undeveloped lake front. Best decision I ever made. I would not trust my own judgment on buying real estate unrelated to water.
I've done well with stocks by going blue chips buy and hold with Drips.
My next door neighbor made his fortune buying cheap foreclosed property and renting it. He's a slum lord. I couldn't take the stress.

Sub 4% $ on investment properties right now. Crazy

Real estate is too illiquid for me.

Real Estate definitely for me. I'm borrowing against all equity right now and doubling inventory of rental/investment property. It is more work than stocks, but also ultimately more controllable in terms of value and return. Getting investment money at these rates for 30 years is too good to pass up right now.

Real Estate is local, over the next 5 years their will be places where real estate out performs the market and other places where it will not.
