Creating Wealth Real Estate Investing with Jason Hartman

Jason discusses the topic of decentralized finance (defi) and its potential advantages in the cryptocurrency world. He also touches on the issue of the US housing shortage and how it presents opportunities for real estate investors. Additionally, Jason highlights the benefits of joining the "Fire Your Managers" program and announced an upcoming Empowered Investor pro meeting that will host a guest who will present a special "tenant insurance" product . Finally, he invites everyone to join their community to grow their real estate portfolio.  Jason then interviews Professor Campbell R. Harvey from Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and the author of DeFi and the Future of Finance as they talk about the yield curve and Decentralized Finance. Harvey discusses the phenomenon of an inverted yield curve, which has predicted every recession for the last several decades. Harvey expressed his concern about the current inverted yield curve, which has been in place for 12 months, traditionally leading to a recession. Jason and Campbell also discuss the significance of an inverted yield curve and the potential of decentralized finance (defi) in the financial world. They identified problems with the current financial system and the possibility of solutions through DeFi, such as the need for an alternative to the SWIFT system for wire transfers and the ability to store and use value in transactions. With the advent of WEB 3.0 and the decentralization of monetary assets, DeFi is truly set to revolutionize the world in all economic aspects especially finance.   Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 1:27 Today's episode: The future of DeFi 2:25 The 'other' housing crisis- a huge opportunity for real estate investors 5:05 Chart: Housing demand robust on favorable age demographics of FTHBs 6:56 Home prices hit record in September 7:44 FireYourManagers.com 8:38 Join our monthly meeting- go to EmpoweredInvestorPro.com 9:27 Join our cruise- go to EmpoweredInvestorLive.com    Campbell R.

This is part 2 of Jason's interview with Gretchen Morgenson. Jason discussed the Atlanta Federal Reserve bank data and housing affordability issue in the US. He highlighted the potential impact of a predicted housing shortage despite a lower population growth projection from the Census Bureau. Jason also talked about the structural labor shortage and its impact on unemployment rates and wage inflation, attributing it to a supply and demand imbalance. He expressed optimism about the impact of technology on job creation and promoted the 'Empowered Investor Guides Program.' FireYourManagers.com Jason welcomes Gretchen back as they finish the interview. They discuss how private equity's surge into single-family homes is reshaping urban landscapes, pricing out regular investors and first-time home buyers. They highlight concerns about these firms prioritizing profit over property maintenance, creating a semi-monopoly in the market. The impact stems from massive capital injections, largely sourced from public pension funds seeking high returns. Private equity's historical roots in leveraged buyouts are discussed, noting the industry's evolution and its current reliance on institutional investors. The conversation touches on rising interest rates affecting the real estate model and potential challenges for private equity firms. In closing, Gretchen warns individual investors of the industry's growing interest in their capital. #PrivateEquity #RealEstateMarket #Investing #HousingCrisis #Finance #EconomicImpact #PensionFunds #PropertyOwnership #MarketTrends #CapitalAllocation   Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 2:06 America's population statistics 11:11 Atlanta FED data 12:37 Affordability map 16:28 Peak of affordability 19:57 Affordability now 23:23 Ai and the new necessities 26:50 Empowered Investor Guide- 6 Zoom sessions coming up Gretchen Morgenson's interview part 2 27:48 Crowding out phenomenon 29:41 Where are they getting so much capital 31:46 Private equity timeline 33:54 How private equity will impact the real estate market 36:02 Getting hyper-focused on rents 39:37 Financing the single home purchases and it's cost of debt 41:01 What kind of capitalism do we want to have 42:33 Beware- they're coming for the individual investor   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Jason Hartman shares updates on a new program for empowered investors in episode 2075. They introduced the Empowered Investor Guides program, offering specialized guidance to property investors. The program aims to help property owners convert tenants into tenant buyers, increasing deposits and reducing the need for property management. Additionally, Jason discussed the strong equity positions of homeowners, with most having significant equity in their properties, making a housing crash unlikely. He also touched on the need to address housing affordability issues. Melody Wright returns as she discusses the oversaturation of the real estate market, particularly in the build-for-rent and multi-family sectors. She points out that the boom in building luxury properties and the overpricing of homes have resulted in an oversupply. Many builders have ignored the need for affordable housing, and there might be a need for government intervention to subsidize write-downs on overpriced properties. Wright also highlights the impact of demographic shifts, with fewer babies being born and boomers retiring, and their effects on housing trends.   #Investment #RealEstate #EmpoweredInvestor #Housing #Equity #PropertyManagement #Affordability   Key Takeaways: Jason's Editorial 1:26 FireYourManager.com 6:57 Ready for a soft landing 9:14 The COVID jobs recovery is complete (and then some) 9:52 Negative equity rates among mortgaged residential houses 13:36 Turning back the clocks on housing 14:25 More on housing affordability next week Melody Wright Interview part 2 15:30 Build to Rent 26:43 Demographics on household formation during covid,  affordability and the new builds 36:54 Action steps   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Jason discusses a significant legal case that could reshape the real estate industry. The case involves allegations of price-fixing and antitrust violations by major players in the industry, including the National Association of Realtors. A Missouri jury found NAR and several big brokerages guilty of conspiring to inflate commissions, potentially resulting in a massive financial impact. Hartman provides insights into the real estate industry, the role of commissions, and the potential implications of the case. He believes the commissions are too high due to the industry's oversaturation, leading agents to spend a significant amount on marketing to secure transactions. He also suggests that technology platforms like Zillow could benefit from the case, as it may lead to a more direct relationship between buyers and agents.   #RealEstate #AntitrustLaws #PriceFixing #NationalAssociationOfRealtors #RealEstateCommissions #LegalCase #MarketDisruption #RealEstateIndustry #BuyersAgent #Cooperation #Commissions #Competition Key Takeaways: 1:28 An earthquake just hit the real estate industry 3:05 IS the NAR a cartel 4:00 Conspiring to inflate commissions 4:58 A 5 billion lawsuit and Jason's civil RICO case 8:15 Jason's commentary on a CNBC Video: Real Estate Commissions Under Fire 12:56 Buyer's agent adds great value to the transaction 18:50 NAR as a cartel 25:18 Higher Commission costs in the US 27:46 REMAX stocks versus the rest 29:37 American Bar Association & New York Bar Association 'Contingency Fees' 32:35 Anti-Trust Laws, the definition and pros and cons of a cartel 36:15 Real Estate: A Dysfunctional Industry 37:51 What's next and Jason's BIG Disruptor   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Shout out from Rio de Janeiro where Jason opines that BRICS and their attempt at circumventing America's currency and challenging the US dollar's hegemony is not much to be alarmed over. Then Jason welcomes Selma Hepp, the Chief Economist of Core Logic. They discuss the challenging state of the real estate market and noted that the market was facing issues due to rising mortgage rates, which led to a decline in transactions and mortgage refinances. Additionally, she highlighted that existing homeowners were benefiting from this situation due to their low mortgage rates and increasing equity. Selma also pointed out that the volume of home sales was down by 18% last year and was expected to decline by a similar amount this year, while mortgage origins were likely to be down by 30-35%. She also mentioned that the inventory of available homes for sale was at its lowest level historically, a quarter of where it was before the great recession. Despite this challenging market, Selma didn't expect much change until the spring of next year.   Key Takeaways: 1:28 BRICS Selma Hepp interview 3:30 Who benefits in the current housing market 5:27 A decline in sales volume down and it's effects on inventory and prices 9:46 Slicing the MLS data 16:35 Decline in home sales driven by lack of affordability and supply 19:04 The Single Family rental market data 24:02 Where the Single Family market is headed     Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Today's Flashback Friday is from episode 738 published last October 13, 2016. Investment Counselor, Sara is back on the show. She joins Jason to discuss her three new properties in Memphis, how a client beat her to the punch on other properties she was interested in and just how competitive the market is right now. And in the client case study, Dr. David D'Ambrosio shares his experiences with the 1031 Exchange on properties in the Orlando and Indianapolis markets. He shares his opinions on why more high-tax bracket professionals are not investing in real estate and he asks Jason about what his next steps should be? The beautiful thing about real estate is you can acquire an asset, get your money back out and still own and control the asset. Plus, you pay no taxes on the money you extract.   Key Takeaways: 2:25 Sara just closed on three properties in Memphis and she wears PJ's to bed.    6:29 Rate locks - Should you let it float or lock it in? 9:41 Commodities that make up a house are copper wire, glass, steel, petroleum products are independent of any currency. 13:19 Is the Creating Wealth show the Fox News of real estate?

One is location and the other is through cash flow and appreciation. 23:51 The 1031 Exchange allows for only 45 days for identifying properties but up to six months to close. 26:34 It's frustrating more people, doctors in particular, aren't investing in real estate. It's an absolute no-brainer.   32:42 Local community banks will provide financing to investors after they reach their traditional property limit. 38:50 Is it feasible to do a cash out refinance if you can get a sizable amount of cash? 40:53 The deferred down payment option offered a nine-year break even point. 43:51 Equity stripping is pulling the money out of a property, having control of the cash and still own the property.   Mentioned in This Episode: Jason Hartman Venture Alliance Mastermind Hartman Education   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com  

Greetings again from Florianopolis, Brazil. Today, Jason encourages you to take advantage of his company's "Complete Solutions for Real Estate Investing" program. Then he and Joseph Brown finish up their conversation, exploring various economic factors, including housing and government borrowing. They touch on how housing is currently insulated from potential economic downturns due to low mortgage rates, particularly for the majority of homeowners with rates below 5%. This leads to an analysis of the inverted yield curve, traditionally seen as a recession predictor, but Joseph suggests it may not impact the housing market significantly. He explains that households are less likely to walk away from their homes and will prioritize other debts when facing financial difficulties. Furthermore, the gig economy and non-traditional employment options are becoming more prominent, making it easier for people to generate income, though the IRS is now actively tracking such income sources. Overall, the discussion emphasizes the resilience of the housing market in the face of broader economic challenges.     Key Takeaways: 1:25 Take advantage of Jason Hartman's "Complete Solutions for Real Estate Investing" program Joe Brown interview Part 2 2:22 US residential mortgage charts 4:10 Chart: Housing production, units available vs. population 6:21 The 6 year millennial lag and shadow demand 9:25 Stepping into the housing market vs staying out of it  13:38 The Reverse Repo Facility 18:29 The inverted yield curve and the housing market 21:14 The jobs market and the gig economy   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Jason briefly touches on the "over-entitled" investor as he reveals that getting properties for 'free' is a thing of the past. He also welcomes back to the show Joseph Brown of Heresy financial as they discuss the global conflicts, the emotional detachment of Americans from these events, and the potential dangers of policymakers' decisions. They highlighted the role of profit in perpetuating war and concluded with a cautionary note about the potential for ongoing conflict if war remains profitable. They also discussed the philosophy of 'packaged commodities' investment, arguing that investing in real estate with subsidized financing and tax benefits can be more profitable than investing in commodities directly. They noted the potential for increased capital flow and immigration into the US due to economic devastation and war around the world. Additionally, they advised investing in scarce resources, with a preference for those at the end product stage. Joseph expressed his long-standing optimism on residential real estate and predicted that prices would continue to rise. Jason emphasized the need to consider the housing market in a global context, noting that American real estate remains relatively affordable compared to many other countries. They concluded that the key factor in the housing market is the balance between the number of people needing housing and the number of available places to live. #RealEstateInvestment #GlobalInstability #RealEstateMarket #Inflation #CapitalFlight #USRealEstate #WealthPreservation"   Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 1:43 Meme: the over-entitled investor Joe Brown interview 6:50 Extreme profits in a world in chaos  11:14 Pushing the prices of resources higher 14:38 Packaged commodities investing and wealth creation and destruction 18:04 Action steps and the great American real estate market 22:43 Bullish on residential real estate with data to prove it 27:59 Chart on mortgage currently on property     Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com  

Today's Flashback Friday episode is from episode 734 published October 4, 2016. Jason's guest, Brian is a client and a longtime Creating Wealth Podcast listener. Brian describes his early days of real estate investing when Sara initially walked him through the buying process. The properties he purchased in Atlanta and Memphis have now matured and Brian is faced with making a decision. Should he refi-til-ya-die or to do a 1031 exchange and get 2 for 1 on his highly appreciated properties. Jason shares his insights on best business practices, how to use an IRA as a tax savings vehicle and recommends some “must read” books on real estate investing. Key Takeaways: 1:44 The Wells Fargo contract claw back. 3:39 “Make Six Figures” Bloomberg article tells a scary tale from the content portal.

The refi-til-ya-die option is limited to the cash-out loan to value ratio. 18:06 A refi may be a simpler option and offers a locked-in lower interest rate. 20:34 Brian shares his real estate investor stories on his website Rental Mindset. 21:55 When buying real estate inside of an IRA you get a tax efficient vehicle inside of another tax efficient vehicle. 22:37 Read Garrett Sutton's Loopholes of Real Estate. 23:55 Rationalizing buying a property sight unseen.

Michael Zuber talks to Jason about the housing market and the potential for a housing crash. Jason provides insights into why a housing crash hasn't occurred so far, emphasizing the need for millions of distressed sellers as a key ingredient for a crash. He also mentions that people who predict crashes often lack a comprehensive understanding of economic cycles and are influenced by past traumatic events like the 2007-2008 housing crash. Additionally, the conversation touches on unemployment and its potential impact on the housing market, with Jason arguing that banks are more likely to work with homeowners than rush to foreclose, especially if they have substantial equity in their properties. The discussion also briefly mentions the role of technology companies in the economy and the concept of leveraging in real estate. Overall, the conversation focuses on the factors affecting the housing market's stability and the likelihood of a housing crash, with a critical view of those who sensationalize such predictions for personal gain. #HousingTrends #Economy #HousingMarket #EconomicCycles Key Takeaways: 1:29 Packaged Commodities Investments are doing very well 3:00 Why the housing market hasn't crashed just yet 5:56 The ONE ingredient one MUST have for a housing crash and profiles of a Crash bro 8:21 Don't be lazy; study more than one recession 10:16 Very low inventory plus unemployment and it's insurance 15:45 Median monthly mortgage payment & number of mortgages by interest rate and foreclosure timelines 19:39 Altos Research inventory numbers 23:38 Drop in activity- not north of 6M homes for a decade 25:58 The FED looks like it's forcing a recession 32:43 A crystal ball on rate cuts and book recommendation 35:49 Jobs growth and some thoughts on the future of the economy   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Jason discusses the impact of national debt on economic debates between inflation and deflation and its role in wealth redistribution. He highlighted the potential value of war due to rebuilding and defense contractors, and emphasized the importance of a commodities investing strategy when dealing with natural disasters or wars. He also talks about the potential for a Federal Reserve pivot in response to economic concerns, which could lead to lower mortgage rates and interest rates. He argues that national debt might not be as significant as commonly thought, citing the "frog in warm water" example. He then invites his listeners to join the Empowered Investor Pro group.  Then Jason welcomes Richard Vague as he discusses the relationship between government debt and inflation. He presents empirical evidence that challenges the commonly held belief that government debt always leads to inflation. Vague argues that historical data shows that inflation is often caused by supply constraints, such as during times of war or other disruptions, rather than simply by an increase in government debt. He also points out that monetary systems have evolved over time, and there have been periods in history where there was no central bank or even a national currency, yet inflation was not rampant. Vague suggests that the supply of currency is elastic and that significant over-issuance is required to trigger inflation. Overall, Vague's argument is based on historical data and challenges the traditional view that government debt is a direct cause of inflation. He emphasizes that the relationship between government debt and inflation is more complex and nuanced than commonly believed.

Today's Flashback Friday is from episode 764 published last December 16, 2016.  No one but Jason seems to be saying it but Donald J. Trump is America's first real estate president. It's true his presidency may bring inflation but it's ok because many real estate investors already have their debt locked up for three decades. Jason's guest on today's podcast is Nick Adams. Nick is the Founder and Executive Director of FLAG, The Foundation for Liberty and American Greatness. He also works as a columnist for Townhall.com. He is a former Centennial Institute Policy Fellow.

Today, Jason finishes up his talk with Neal Bawa as they touch on the potential impact of generative AI technology. Generative AI, such as Chat GPT, is considered a groundbreaking innovation and is expected to both disrupt and enhance various aspects of society.

Jason and Neil Bawa discuss the state of the multifamily real estate market. Prices in the sector reached unsustainable levels, resulting in a 25% decline since the peak in early 2022. Neil outlines two scenarios for the future: one where the Federal Reserve cuts rates, leading to stabilization through rate caps and refinancing, and another where rates remain high, causing distress. In either scenario, the market is expected to recover by the first quarter of 2025, with investors and banks facing losses totaling around $50 billion in a trillion-dollar market.  #RealEstate #Multifamily #MarketAnalysis #MarketTrends   Key Takeaways: 1:22 The issues when investing in 17 metropolitan areas 4:13 Multifamily and the worse segment of commercial investing right now 8:49 "Survive till 25" and Bridge Loans and the "Jesus can't save you" category 16:21 Average price and unit count of multifamily properties and entry level housing 23:46 Bank collapse and the fear porn chart 30:58 Life insurance and pension plans     Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Today's Flashback Friday is from episode 768 published last December 21, 2016. Jason speaks with Bob Pozen about possible changes in the real estate market under a Trump administration. Changes in legislation and regulations may lift up small to medium sized banks and increase the amount of lending by the biggest banks. Bob Pozen is a Senior Lecturer at MIT's Sloan School of Management, a Senior Research Fellow at the Brookings Institute and former Associate General Counsel for the SEC. Bob has authored two books Extreme Productivity and Too Big to Save which is discussed during today's podcast.    Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 2:17 The historic change in the leadership of the U.S. Government. 4:03 Remember to register for the 2017 Meet the Masters Event slated for January.

Jason and Will Denis of the Flippin' SoFlo podcast discuss various aspects of the current real estate market and the impact of interest rates and inflation. They emphasize the importance of looking at data rather than getting caught up in fear-based news and offer insights into why the real estate market remains strong despite economic challenges. They mention that low-interest rates have led to affordable mortgage payments for many homeowners, making it unlikely for a real estate crash to occur without distressed sellers in mass quantities. Additionally, they discuss inventory levels and how they affect the housing market, emphasizing the resilience of real estate as an asset class. They talk about potential returns on investment in income properties, with projected returns ranging from 20% to 30%. Jason emphasizes that income property is a historically proven asset class with multi-dimensional earning potential. #RealEstate #HousingMarket #InterestRates #Inflation #Investment #IncomeProperties #Returns Key Takeaways: 1:22 It's all about inflation: Data not drama 3:41 News versus noise 4:33 Inventory levels and the sink metaphor 12:24 Wanted for an RE crash: distressed sellers 14:02 Credit scores and what it means to the housing market 16:01 Population and immigration: Demographics is destiny 18:18 Massive housing construction 23:31 The 'Perma bull' of the housing market 26:15 Jason's crystal ball 32:04 Minimize exposure to 'fear porn'   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com
