Not sure why you are being downvoted, but this is correct. The returns on VITAX far outperformed leveraged housing. (see 3rd final thought at https://medium.com/@usaar33/why-you-shouldnt-buy-a-home-in-t...)

Besides, 10% is about the long-term S&P 500 average return.

Not to mention that by owning you have to pay property tax, which should be considered when comparing investment returns.
