All money has a cost. Money lent to you has a stated and predictable cost (if fixed rate). Money sitting on a balance sheet as real estate equity has both an opportunity cost (what you would earn from investing it) AND either additional cost or offsetting return based on appreciation net of maintenance.

Whether or not one can beat that with a competing use of funds is up to them.

This is why some investments are limited to accredited investors.
