According to Cris fox vice president in one mortgage bank, “you can buy real estate with margin. You cannot do that as far as stocks are concerned. Suppose we buy a house with $1000 of our own money and 100% finance, you will earn equity of $ 48000 on $400000 mortgage. After cutting cost of repair and others you will still be left with a good sum of money. You have to pay 12% of the cost as interest. However if you are resident then the interest is also saved. This cannot happen in stock”. In brief cris fox says that it would be better if you invest in both stocks and real estate and look for a better deal as soon as it strikes the market.
