AI summary
Property can be a powerful investment, offering significant financial and lifestyle advantages. A key benefit is leverage, using a mortgage to purchase an asset with only a deposit, a feature not available with stocks.

Lifestyle perks include stability, freedom to renovate and have pets, and the pride of ownership.
