Many people out there think that real estate and property have the same meaning, even though the two have different meanings. Property places more emphasis on the rights to ownership of land and buildings, while real estate only focuses on the physical form of land and buildings. So the housing you buy is property because you have ownership rights to land and buildings, while if you buy an apartment it means you own real estate, because the land is not yours.

Property is a kind of asset that you tend to purchase. Real estate business refers to the business that involves selling and buying property.

In my country, it is mostly owning of property that's popular. The few times people do real estate the way you described it, it did not end up well.

Real estate mostly refers to the physical buildings you own, while property mostly refers to the ownership aspect of it, something like that anyways.

Property are the valuable things that we own while real estate is the process of putting them to sell or renting them out or using them as a business

I didn't understand and I still don't understand this analogy. If I get it right, property has to do more with land while real estate has more to do with buildings.

Real estate management and property management are the same. Property management comes under the umbrella of real estate management.
If you're just looking at it as property, it's different from real estate. Real Estate involves management of properties which is why they are different. But if you call it property management, then it's the same thing as real estate.
