Well the MAJOR difference in stocks vs hard assets is that stocks are liquid. I can change that (stocks) investment with a few keystrokes... with a commercial building I have marketing time - commission costs - marketing costs... and I'm a hostage to what the prevailing market is -- and what my PARTNERS want to do. With stocks or bonds -- it's just me -- and $8.95 for a buy and a sale... whether it's $500 or $5,000,000....
