Real estate is a consumer good, it SHOULD depreciate in value over time, especially long term. I don't believe real estate should be seen as a (potentially) profitable investment (itself), unless you are the builder or renting out.

Disagree. Land is finite. It's an asset.

Land should be as valuable as the things being built on top of it, there should be a strong correlation. If nobody is building (or continuously building), the value of the land should decrease over time. In this way, I don't see land as finite.

Yeah, you have a lot to learn about real estate, my man.

Land/ Real estate isn't a "store of value", just because it is "finite" ;)

Of course. But, in certain scenerios it absolutely is.
