Gallup: Real Estate is Best Long-Term Investment 4 Years Running
Every year, Gallup surveys
Americans to determine their choice for the best long-term investment.
Respondents are given a choice between real estate, stocks/mutual funds,
gold, savings accounts/CDs, or bonds.
For the fourth year in a row, Real Estate has come out on top as the best long-term investment! This year’s results showed that 34% of Americans chose real estate, followed by stocks at 26%. The full results are shown in the chart below.
The study makes it a point to draw attention to the contrast of the sentiment over the last four years compared to that of 2011-2012, when gold took the top slot with 34% of the votes. Real estate and stocks took second and third place, respectively, while still in recovery from the Great Recession.
