## Resource

Yale Endowment is one of the most successful institutional investors in history. Their target return on real estate? About 6% after fees. Why would the smartest money in the room accept that? Because that's what's realistic. In this episode, I break down real estate as an asset class: public REITs vs private real estate, the fee structure that eats your gains, which property types are winning (data centers, industrial, self-storage), which ones are dying (office), and the simplest way to get exposure without buying a duplex. Part 3 in the Complete Guide to Investing series. If you missed Part 1 (Equities) and Part 2 (Bonds), go back and listen to those first.
