We had a very interesting discussion over the weekend and people debated if it was better to invest in property or to invest in Bitcoin. The argument was as follows :

1. Most people cannot afford to buy property, so they take a home loan at a Bank. The home loan is paid back with interest and some of these loans are spread out over 20 years to make it affordable to the person who takes out the loan. So, over that 20 years the house of $100 000 will cost you say $1 000 000. {$900 000 paid in interest}

The argument is also that the property has to increase in value, with more than $900 000 for you to say that it was a good investment AND you have to sell that property to get that profit.

2. The other side of the room said it was better to rent a smaller property and to invest the "savings" into something like Bitcoin, because your profit will pay for a bigger deposit or even a whole property in a few years time.

I think paying a high interest rate to a Bank is just as bad as paying rent to a Landlord, because you are getting screwed in both these circumstances.  Angry

We all want to live in big houses that we cannot afford.  Roll Eyes

Point 1 is true, not everyone can buy property because the value of property usually very expensive.
But in cryptocurrency, you can buy it in fraction. Keep accumulating the good coins is good for your investment.
Thats why im joining cryptocurrency, because i can save my money and invest on some good projects.

Investment in property is a very secure way and a risk free but you can't expect a huge profit of it than in bitcoin, you can earn big profit from bitcoin with a small amount of investment but it is also has a risk so this two option is both okay for me.

For I'd rather invest in property like house and lot, as we all know every year the price of property is increasing, and also I'd rather have my own house than a pocket full of money.
Long term speaking, property prices won't ever be able to catch up with crypto in general. The amount of growth that crypto has gone through already is enough to keep property increases behind for hundreds of years.

If you also look at how much potential this market still has, then you can safely add another couple of hundred years that property increases won't be able to catch up on crypto.

I can see investments in properties become a viable option at the moment crypto in its entirety has developed itself to such extent, that you can't expect it to increase with another 500-1000% easily.

If I have enough money to buy a property like condominium or house and lot, Ill choose it over Bitcoin. Having a secured investment is better than taking a risks
it is also a wiser decision since you can earn income from it as well by having a monthly rent and will appreciate thru time

I will consider a property than bitcoins. Bitcoins is too volatile and risky  to spend my whole investment into it , even it is not satisfied by many government as a reliable form of investment.

If one has the chance to invest in bitcoin or to buy a property;

Then i think that the one must have to buy the property because it is much more safe to buy a property and you have all the legal documentation and there are many few chance of the froud and the property does not go in loss or the property don't devalue its price won't go down but there is the tax on that property that one have to pay and its that is forsure. whereas

If the one would invest in bitcoin there must be no tax on it because it only depends on value of the Dollar but sometimes bitcoin lose its value and reach from top to the lowest point and the money of the invester reduced to very low.

Properties like houses are liabilities in most instances than assets. I think the second group idea is laudable. To invest in bitcoins and rent a room over at least five years will give you the financial freedom.

I believe Bitcoin is the best investment in the long run but it's also the riskiest, properties won't give you as much as profit but it's a pretty typical and established market that will probably you keep the money flowing within the years! Even with that, I strongly suggest you invest in cryptocurrency.

Well, property is a thing you can use or you can earn from it through various purpose. And it can be old day by day and value does not increases much. But on other hand investing on bitcoin you can not earn every day but if you wait for a long time you will get much more than investing on other thing.

as you say, to invest in property must have substantial capital, especially for residential services that are mediated by the bank.
you have explained it and it is even worse when someone stops working and can not continue paying for it.
I think crypto and bitcoin provide a lot of options even though it is very risky.

Both have their own pros and cons .

In case of Bitcoins :

* You can Invest any amount that you want and that you have .
* It's risky but can give you good returns .

In case of properties:

* You need a bare minimum that ranges very high to be able to own a property .

* Unlike bitcoins you won't gain 100% profits but it increases slowly over time and will be able to produce good returns without much risk.

In case of properties the profit will be less but will be sure and will take time. It's abrupt in case of Bitcoins and we can even get into loss so that's not sure.

I think the best depends on the person who is investing it and the amount he or she posseses.

For small Investments bitcoins is the only option against property but for larger ones properties are favoured.

Property is more secure than bitcoin. The value of property will surely increase even though not so fantastic but there is a guarantee that we will get profit from it. While bitcoin, lol no one knows. We can be lucky but we can be unlucky too.

Well for me if you have money to invest for some property, i would choose property than bitcoin, like for example a house its better to invest your money in house because you have a home to stay and over a year the price of a property is also increasing, thats why i will choose property than bitcoin. Because we dont know how long bitcoin will exist.

nowadays there may still be many people think that property becomes the best investment, but some people are now switching to bitcoin. personally although I am involved in crypto currency I think investing in property will be safer with less risk than you invest in bitcoin
Property investment has an opportunity to allocate long-term funds compared to bitcoin investments. In addition, property properties are also able to last long, but do not reduce the price. The capitalization of the selling price and the purchase price is also quite profitable, so even if for the long term, profits remain large.

Many of cruptocurrency enthusiasts in my opinion, if they will be standing before that decision, they will choose to have  some property like house, appartments or a vehicle. I`m not an exclussion, I would like to have a house and only after to invest in Bitcoin.

It's better to invest in properties because it can surely gained big profits in the future and it is more safe and secured. While in bitcoins, it has no concrete assuranced that it can gained enough profits sinced it is highly volatile and unpredictable.

For me, property is the best investment you can buy because of its increasing value every year so it is better than bitcoin that is very unstable in price and a very high risk type of investment. Only rich people will risk a very high amount of money in bitcoin.
