Shares vs. Property for Capital Gain: An Honest Analysis of When Property > Shares – and When Shares > Property | Ep. 325

In this episode, we discuss how long it takes for shares to catch up with leveraged property from a capital growth perspective.  The key benefit of  leveraged property is that you can invest with more money than you actually have sitting on your personal balance sheet. That means in the medium term you can get better gains than in an equivalent asset class e.g. shares even if they appreciate at a higher rate.  But, eventually, an asset like shares will catch up. In this analysis that's 31 years after you start investing. Finally, we discuss our upcoming Live Podcast Tour, which is happening mid-September in: Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland.
