A comparison of property versus shares and how to find the right mix for a profitable portfolio Almost every investor eventually considers the question: which is the better investment, property or shares? The answer isn't as simple as one or the other, since both asset classes offer different benefits and risks.

It then goes on to give you the information you need to tailor your portfolio to your own level of acceptable risk versus desired reward.
