According to a recent Gallup poll, Americans believe real estate is the best long-term investment. This marks the second consecutive year real estate has topped the poll, representing a significant shift in consumer sentiment in regard to the economic recovery.
Here is a breakdown of current long-term investment preferences.
Real estate – 31%
Stocks/mutual funds – 25%
Gold – 19%
Savings accounts/CDs – 15%
Bonds – 6%
The increased preference for real estate coincides with the creation of a number of initiatives to expand the range of potential home buyers, including the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac 3 percent down payment program and the loosening of credit standards that had previously made it tougher to obtain a mortgage.
