Real Estate: Real estate as a currency alternative
Summary notes:
The conversation revolves around the relative value of currency and how the value of money is relative to the faith in the currency. Wise investors in countries with large debt problems convert their currency to a more stable currency or some other asset class that has a better relative value.
People don’t tend to not think of assets as currencies, but a currency has two parts: store of value and medium of exchange. So by definition assets can fill the role of the store of value component of a currency that is no longer working as a good store of value even if it’s a phenomenal medium of exchange. The money that people move out of an unstable currency is the store of value part of their wealth.
Real estate (especially in Texas) is an asset class many investors are turning to as an alternative to store a good chunk of their wealth to protect its value.
