All components have some resistance, capacitance, and inductance.
The unwanted properties are called 'stray' or 'parasitic' impedances, and are usually smallest in resistors. You can use resistors if you need to create a real-valued impedance or ratio of impedances. Take into account the parasitic effects of these components, then add resistors as necessary. Use suitable eye protection around them. While capacitors can deliver large currents, inductors develop high voltages.
