On a separate note, the reason why I don't invest in property is due to regulatory risk - the Government can clamp down on property any time and does so frequently (6 rounds over the last 3+ years). But for the stock market, it does not intervene and lets market forces decide on market prices.
One reason could be that housing is a political issue and is tied to marriage, birth rates and overall satisfaction, while the stock market is seen as being non-integral.
