Answer 2

Lots of people can compare! If you want to know the advantages and disadvantages , then of course, investments in the two sectors can be discussed. Share market volatility is much higher. On the other hand, exit from the share market investments is much easier. If you have invested wisely and in liquid stocks, then you can en cash all the securities in a day or two. Value of your investment fluctuates on a daily o even hourly basis. Lots of events can affect the value. However, in case of properties, the procedure is cumbersome in buying and selling and the transaction costs are high . But the volatility is generally very low and depending on the place and the general growth of economy, yo can expect a good return. May be when real estate mutual funds pick up, the investments in the two sectors can be compared more easily.
