Real estate may have grown more than the all ords over the last ten years but this is also an example of how stats can be distorted.
Real estate has had a brillant last 3 years shares have not if shares had been compared to real estate for a 10 year period upto 3 years, shares would have made real estate look dismal. In three years time when the real estate bubble has colapses (and it will) and if shares have improve the ten year performance comparative will probably show shares out performing real estate again.
Fact is historicaly shares have out performed real estate, real estate is currently over priced regardless what pricing criteria you use.
