When you see people paying crazy real estate prices, remember, they're doing it with leverage
So yes, should the asset increase in price a little, the improvement in return-on-capital-employed can look appealing

Ultimately, they don't really own it, but rather they're carrying the downside of a bunch of stakeholders
RE investors beware!
