If you have at least $25k I'd advice buying a rental in NWA or LR as our per sq.ft property values are half that of most other Class B cities and I expect it to double within 10 years. That plus the bank financing 80% at 4.5 - 5% would earn you a nice return. Plus you can claim depreciation against the income to give a better net return over SPY.
Hard to beat SPY for ease of investment unless you have insider knowledge or know of a new industry starting up will be huge like Netflix or Amazon was.

Having rental properties is exactly what I am going for actually. It seems way less complicated. I found that location is very important when it comes to any kind of home value. The first home I purchased was right in the flood plane in NLR 😂
Needless to say I just about broke even on that one.
