How do you distinguish between the two? In my mind they are one and

An investment typically promises some safety of principal and a reasonable
return. Buying real property in the hope of a quick run up of a minimal
outlay does not meet these requirements, and therefore is speculation.

It's a fairly standard definition, but not the only one.
