Balancing Real Estate and Equities for Long-Term Wealth Growth

I’ve been weighing the pros and cons of real estate versus equities in a diversified portfolio, and I’d love to hear how others approach this. Real estate offers tangible assets and potential cash flow, but it’s also illiquid and requires active management. On the other hand, equities are more liquid and hands-off, but they come with higher volatility.

For those who’ve built wealth in both areas, how do you strike the right balance? Do you prioritize one over the other, or do you keep them evenly weighted? Also, has anyone found creative ways to invest in real estate without the hassle of direct ownership, like REITs or syndications? Curious to hear your experiences and insights!
