an investment property with a renter in it produces rental income for the landlord, and cash is currently giving me 5% returns for just sitting in the bank.

I guess I wasnt very clear. I meant that generating income isnt the definition of an asset.

A house is an asset if you have a renter in it or not. It can also be utilized to generate income.
