With stocks you have an option of buying "mutual funds"/"index funds"/etc with those there is very limited amount of research needed... you just buy for example s&p index fund, total time required = 5 mins, total cost = $10...
Even with this naive approach, you will be just fine, you will always pay for the fund exactly what it's worth at the given time... With RE (just like with domain names), if you are a clueless idiot, you can get fucked pretty badly, you can very easily overpay 10% or more for a property... (so research in this case is crucial and research = time wasted)
