What if you could transfer your 3% mortgage rate to a new property? It could be possible in the near future. A new type of home loan would allow borrowers to move their mortgage rate when they sell and buy a new property, effectively ending the “lock-in effect” plaguing the housing market. Could a loan like this really come to fruition? We're back on another headline episode, touching on real estate's top stories that you need to hear to invest better than the masses. First, we're talking about “portable mortgages,” another push for affordability from the Trump administration. You may be able to transfer your low rate…but for how long? Then, we touch on the real reason the housing market is stuck in purgatory, and the only way we'll bounce back. Is this the fall of house flipping? James goes public (front-page news!) with a six-figure loss and shares the truth about how hard it is to flip houses right now. Finally, we answer the question every 13-28-year-old is asking: Is Gen Z screwed? With a tanking job market, there's only one way for them to survive… In This Episode We Cover New “portable” mortgage potential that could let you take your rate to a new home The fall of house flipping? Why even James is struggling to make a profit A shocking statistic about the average homeowner (why the housing market is stuck) No more trust funds: why “home inheritance” is becoming the new normal Gen Z can't find jobs: here's what they should be doing instead And So Much More!

Another year is nearly in the books. The 2025 housing market was largely defined by construction oversupply, sluggish rent growth, flat home prices, and widespread turbulence, with residential real estate moving far more slowly than anticipated and commercial real estate all but grinding to a halt. Yet it appears we've reached the bottom, and the silver lining is clear: real estate is still ripe with opportunity for investors who are willing to play the long game. Today, Brian Burke returns to the show to share where investors should be directing their attention in 2026. Perhaps unsurprisingly, one asset class continues to deliver for investors who are intent on building long-term wealth with real estate. And Brian believes we may be entering a period that could mirror the early 1990s, where the wisest move is to slowly accumulate these assets before the next wave of appreciation. Slower rent growth might keep otherwise great assets from paying off in year one, but those who persevere through a “season of patience” stand to be rewarded when it really counts: 5 or 10 years from now. In This Episode We Cover Forecasting new construction, home prices, and mortgage rates in 2026 Why a period mirroring the early 1990s could be followed by a 2000s-style boom The roadmap for building generational wealth with small multifamily properties Why investors should focus on asset accumulation in a “season of patience” The asset Brian believes is the biggest “bright spot” in a tough housing market The benefits and potential dangers of the controversial 50-year mortgage And So Much More!

50-year mortgages could be coming sooner than we expected. This week, President Trump announced on social media the possibility of longer mortgage terms hitting the housing market. Extending the standard 30-year fixed-rate mortgage to 50 years will have massive implications for home prices, affordability, and cash flow for rental property investors. The question is: Will it actually happen? And if it does, how would these new mortgage rules affect your returns on real estate? We did the math, comparing a 30-year mortgage vs. a 50-year mortgage to see which gives you bigger (total) returns and builds your wealth faster. The cash flow differences are notable and could mark significant improvements for landlords, but one drawback could be so great that investors turn away from this new mortgage entirely. Dave gives the pros and cons, shares what housing market experts are concerned about, and answers the question: Would he use a 50-year mortgage if given the option? In This Episode We Cover Trump's new 50-year mortgage proposal that could change the housing market 30-year vs. 50-year mortgage returns on rental properties (cash flow, amortization, total returns) Why one outspoken housing expert is growing concerned about the support for 50-year mortgages One massive tradeoff that most Americans aren't aware of when using a longer mortgage period Is a 50-year mortgage even…legal?

The United States is on the brink of a recession, according to major multinational bank UBS. Meanwhile, America's largest bank, JPMorgan Chase, says recession risk is only at 40%. Who's right? Who's wrong? We're using a new recession indicator in this episode to reveal America's real risk of sliding into another downturn. If it feels like your dollar doesn't go as far as it used to and your salary is barely keeping up—you're not imagining it. But according to official sources, America has only been in a recession for three months since the Great Financial Crisis. That can't be right when it's getting this hard to get by. That's why, in this episode, Dave shares his new recession indicator, based on the average American's finances, to measure the financial health of real Americans, not what corporate earnings reports suggest. Looking back, the economic data doesn't fit the official narrative. And if you feel like you've been in a recession for years, you might be right. But you can still protect (and grow) your wealth while the economy falters. Are your investments keeping your real wealth afloat? In This Episode We Cover The new “recession indicator” that forecasts whether average Americans will struggle or not Recession predictions from top banks and whether we're on the precipice of a crisis Why the standard definition of a “recession” is wrong and ignores average Americans The alarming statistic that shows just how much of your spending power has been eaten away How to recession-proof your finances and invest so you can weather economic storms And So Much More!

The housing market is seeing a (surprisingly) positive trend. Yes, even with all those YouTube channels showing you “empty” houses, it seems that homebuyers, especially millennials, are getting back into the game. This is excellent news for agents, lenders, title companies, sellers, and flippers. So, what's the “positive” trend we're seeing? We're back with another headline episode to get you up to date on the housing market in just around half an hour. First, new data points to housing demand increasing as mortgage rates stay away from their 7%+ highs. Is there a path to 5% interest rates in the near future? Yes, but the road to it won't be pretty. Here's what would have to happen for us to get there. Can you guess the top 10 cities with the largest price drops in the US? We're sharing the complete list in this episode, with some surprising cities near the top. Finally, we'll discuss the massive layoffs from tech, including Amazon's recent firing of over 10,000 well-paid employees. If you live in an area where these layoffs are happening, the market could see a noticeable shift. In This Episode We Cover Why housing demand is actually going up while economic optimism is going down A 5% interest rate future? What actually has to happen for us to get there The top 10 United States cities seeing the most significant price drops Why James is preparing for layoffs ASAP and tweaking his investing strategy as jobs get cut Money printing…again?

The Fed cuts rates, and mortgage rates go up. Then they do it again, and rates…go back up. How does this keep happening? Has the Fed lost complete control over mortgage rates? The Fed has now cut rates twice in 2025, and we're hovering around the same (if not slightly higher) mortgage rates as before the first cut. After last week's rate cut announcement, investors were surprised to see that mortgages—once again—got even more expensive. But it's not because of what the Fed did—it was because of what they said, potentially foreshadowing a slower, longer path back to 5% mortgage rates. Dave is on to explain why mortgage rates moved in the opposite direction, why we could be stuck with higher mortgage rates for longer, and the two things that need to happen for mortgage rates to break back into the 5% range. Plus, he'll share three realistic scenarios that could cause rates to move in different directions and what could trigger each. The Fed meeting announcement explained and why mortgage rates went up The real reason why we're not seeing mortgage rates fall below 6% Alarming corporate layoffs and whether this is a warning sign for the entire economy Some good/bad news about inflation and the cities that are faring the worst Three likely mortgage rate scenarios that could send rates in different directions, without the Fed making moves And So Much More!

The national housing correction is here but your results will be decided locally. Some markets are cooling gently, others are slipping fast, and a few affordable metros are still running warm. So where does that leave buy-and-hold, flips, STRs, and BRRRRs? We map the dramatic regional split, Midwest/Northeast steadier, Gulf Coast/Texas under pressure, and show how to match your strategy to on-the-ground realities like inventory, rent growth, and affordability. You'll hear why “flat prices + rising rents” can be a green light for cash flow, when to take a calculated swing in oversold-but-strong-fundamentals cities (think Austin/Nashville/Dallas), and where supply and insurance costs are pushing deeper discounts (hello, Florida). We also dig into metro-level forecasts into 2026 and why your underwriting should look different in Milwaukee than in Miami. In This Episode We Cover Local > national: why the same correction looks totally different by region and price tier Affordability & supply: the two signals driving winners and laggards (and how to measure both) Hottest vs. coolest markets: where buyers have leverage and where demand still pops Rents vs. prices: pairing flat/declining prices with rising rents to improve cash flow Risk-on vs. risk-off playbooks: conservative buy boxes vs. opportunistic dips in strong cities Flipping in a slowdown: wider spreads, longer days-on-market, how to price and pace Forecasts into 2026: what recent metro projections imply for your next 3 - 12 months of deals Hold or sell?

Feeling anxious about the housing market? You're not alone. Recent data show that U.S. cancellation rates for property deals have reached a record high this year, with buyers taking advantage of more moderate conditions to re-evaluate their options. With a projected 10-year increase in housing prices by about 23.5%, experts suggest we may finally be heading towards a more stable market environment, where traditional investment strategies like securing great assets at fair prices could truly shine. Curious about how real estate fraud could impact investors as the market evolves? We'll also explore rising cases of fraud and the steps you can take to protect yourself.

The headlines say “slowdown,” but let's call it what it is: a housing correction. Prices (in real terms) are slipping, days-on-market is stretching, and cooling is broadening across regions and price tiers. What does that actually mean for buyers, sellers, and investors and how is a correction different from a crash? We unpack the data, define the terms, and show you how to play offense without taking on unnecessary risk. We break down nominal vs. real prices (and why inflation math matters), why widespread cooling doesn't equal panic, and the key forces restoring affordability: rates, wages, and prices. Plus, how long a typical correction lasts, why “forced selling” is the real crash trigger (and why we're not there), and what to do if your on-paper values dip. Finally, we get tactical: tightening your buy box, underwriting with flat rents and conservative appreciation, negotiating in a slower market, and deciding when to hold vs. sell, so you're positioned for the next expansion, not paralyzed by the current stall. In This Episode We Cover Correction vs. crash: clear definitions, real-world thresholds, and why speed + depth matter Nominal vs. real prices: how inflation turns “up 2%” into a true decline The cooling map: regions and price tiers that are slipping and which are merely slowing Why inventory is rising (but not flooding) and why low delinquencies keep this a correction How long corrections typically last and what could shorten or extend this one Playbook for 2025–26: precise buy boxes, conservative underwriting, better negotiations, and handling “paper losses” without panicking Links from the Show Join the Future of Real Estate Investing with Fundrise Join BiggerPockets for FREE Find an Investor-Friendly Agent in Your Area Find Investor-Friendly Lenders Property Manager Finder Dave's BiggerPockets Profile Check out more resources from this show on BiggerPockets.com and https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/on-the-market-365 Interested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?

The market is sending mixed signals, so what does that mean for buyers and sellers right now? Prices are cooling toward neutral, new listings are finally creeping up, pending sales just slipped, and days on market are the longest since 2019. We sort through the latest data so you can read your local market with clear eyes. A government shutdown is already touching housing. With the National Flood Insurance Program paused, some coastal and riverine deals are stalling as buyers struggle to bind coverage. We explain one potential workaround by assigning an existing policy, plus how many closings could be delayed if the lapse drags on. Zooming out, we track fresh signs of consumer strain. Subprime auto delinquencies are at a record, average car payments now top 750 dollars a month, and sentiment has split sharply between households with big stock portfolios and those without. Several states are flirting with recession risk, which could tug mortgage rates lower, while sticky inflation could keep them pinned. In This Episode We Cover Cooling home prices, rising days on market, and what a near-flat Case-Shiller trend means for offers and list strategy The shutdown's housing ripple effects, including the flood insurance lapse and an assignment tactic that may keep deals alive Why pending sales dipped even as new listings rose, and how to negotiate in a thinner buyer pool Auto loan stress, four-figure car payments, and what these budget pressures mean for future housing demand A tale of two consumers, plus a state-by-state look at recession risk and how that feeds into mortgage rates Action steps for buyers, sellers, and investors in a market that is cooling, not crashing Links from the Show Join the Future of Real Estate Investing with Fundrise Join BiggerPockets for FREE Find an Investor-Friendly Agent in Your Area Find Investor-Friendly Lenders Property Manager Finder Dave's BiggerPockets Profile Check out more resources from this show on BiggerPockets.com and https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/on-the-market-364 Interested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?

We can definitively say it now: the buyer's market is here. The housing market is cooling down, but the deals are heating up as a “mild” correction slows down hot markets and gives buyers even more power in cold ones. With it comes buying opportunities—ones that real estate investors have been starved of over the past few years. You can negotiate for more, offer less, and lock in a lower mortgage rate than last year. The question is: will this correction turn into a full-blown housing crash? Dave's giving you his honest (and data-backed) opinion in this September 2025 housing market update! Mortgage delinquencies are rising rapidly in one subset of the market, the crash-bro clickbaiters say it's a sign of a coming housing apocalypse—are they finally right about something? One thing is certain: a few housing markets across the US are in danger of slipping into an even more oversupplied market. But, with new data showing that sellers are quitting and walking away, will this reverse the worrying trend? Stick around, we've got your housing market update without the hype. In This Episode We Cover The “mild” housing market correction: what it means and whether it'll become a crash Updated home price predictions and how much prices will rise/fall by the end of the year Signs that you can start confidently bidding under asking price (but by how much?) Why inventory is beginning to reverse (have sellers finally had enough?) Mortgage delinquencies are rising: who's affected and could it lead to foreclosures? What investors should do now to prepare to buy discounted deals (be patient!) And So Much More!

What are the repercussions of October 1st on the housing market? Dive into the recent shifts that may impact real estate investing and the broader housing market landscape. With the imposition of new tariffs on construction materials, stirring concerns about rising costs, alongside a federal government shutdown complicating the economic outlook, how will these factors play out in the current market scene?

Is the new construction market the golden ticket for real estate investors in 2025? With newly built homes now cheaper than existing ones, thanks to regional pricing differences, builders' incentives, and a desire to move inventory quickly, this could be an unexpected opportunity for savvy investors. In this episode, Dave Meyer explores why new construction is suddenly appealing, how mortgage rates and home prices are shaping this trend, and what investors need to consider when diving into this market.

Is a recession really coming, or is this the new normal for the housing market? Dave Meyer and J Scott unpack how post-2008 shifts, record debt and money printing, tariffs, and AI are changing the rules, then connect inflation and the labor market to mortgage rates and interest rates so you can gauge what moves them next. You will get a risk-off playbook for today's deals, including conservative underwriting, assuming flatter rents and higher vacancy, buying at today's rates, and favoring fixed-rate debt, plus why single-family housing prices are usually resilient outside of severe shocks. Their housing market prediction and forecast: expect mostly stable home prices with modest moves while mortgage rates hover near current levels, with bigger swings only if jobs crack hard or inflation reaccelerates.

Fed cut rates for the first time in nine months, yet mortgage rates climbed again, so Dave breaks down why and what happens next for the housing market. He explains that the Fed funds rate mainly moves short-term interest rates, while long-term lending tracks the 10-year Treasury and risk spreads, with inflation risk keeping mortgage rates stubborn. His housing market prediction and forecast: expect mortgage rates to hover in the low to mid sixes through 2025, meaning tight affordability and mostly stable home prices, while commercial real estate could benefit more due to shorter-term debt structures. Takeaways for investors include underwriting deals at today's rates, tracking inflation and labor data, and preparing for steady transaction gains rather than a rapid drop in interest rates or a surge in housing prices.

Fed rate drop, refinance rush, and a land price reset: what does it mean for the housing market now. Henry Washington, Kathy, and James explain why refinance applications jumped roughly 30 percent after 30-year mortgage rates slipped near 6.39 percent, how today's ARMs actually work, and why locking a refi now can beat waiting for future interest rates to fall. They outline a practical housing market prediction and forecast, expecting more transactions rather than a surge in home prices or housing prices, plus timing tips for listing into the spring when buyer activity historically rises. You will also get a reality check on the “great wealth transfer” and reverse mortgages, along with a land strategy playbook for a potential price decline, from targeting big-lot houses and infill splits to using seller financing to create equity and cash flow.

Is the labor market finally cracking, and what does that mean for the housing market? Dave Meyer distills the latest BLS and ADP payrolls, JOLTS, and unemployment data, from August's 22,000 nonfarm payroll gain and a 4.3% jobless rate to a 900,000 downward revision and a spike in initial claims, to show a clear cooling trend. He explains why a softer labor market raises the odds of Fed cuts yet inflation keeps pressure on interest rates, so mortgage rates may ease only modestly, boosting transaction volume more than home prices or housing prices. You will hear practical plays for real estate investors, including watching local job numbers, prioritizing tenant retention and collections, and considering refinances if you hold 7 to 8 percent loans, plus how markets like Las Vegas and San Francisco may diverge. Dave's housing market prediction and forecast: a soft but functioning market with cautious upside, where housing prices stabilize and conservative underwriting wins until clearer trends emerge.

Is this a housing market correction or a crash? Dave Meyer and ICE's Andy Walden unpack the Mortgage Monitor: nominal home prices are up about 1.1% year over year, but real housing prices are negative; sellers are stepping back, inventory gains are cooling, and demand still tracks mortgage rates and interest rates, which points to a soft but functioning housing market. You'll hear the regional story in Denver, Florida, and Texas, why FHA delinquencies are inching up while 2020 to 2021 loans perform well, and how soaring property insurance is squeezing affordability and debt to income ratios. Plus, a housing market prediction/forecast: if mortgage rates land in the low sixes (around 6.25% by year end), expect firmer home prices rather than a COVID era surge.

The housing market is already predicted to see price cuts by the end of the year, but is now the time to buy, or should you wait for further price movement? We brought on an investor who has successfully timed the housing market (three times) to give his thoughts on whether we're at the bottom or we have a long way to go. If you've been holding out for lower home prices and less competition, should you take the risk and wait, knowing a rebound could be on the way? Through a combination of genius and a bit of luck, Brian Burke has sold, bought, and sold at the right times repeatedly. He exited the majority of his real estate portfolio in the early 2020s as prices hit all-time highs and competition was fierce. For the last three and a half years, he hadn't bought anything, up until very recently. Is this a signal that now is the time to buy? Today, we're asking Brian whether 2025 is the right time to buy (and for which assets), how to get in “position” to make a profit as home prices decline, the sellers most likely to give you concessions and further price cuts, and signs YOU should sell your headache rental and trade it for something better. The second half of 2025 could be when the scales tip—are you ready to make a move?

Is the “long fizzle” the housing market's next chapter? With mortgage rates still high and interest rates keeping cash parked in T-bills, many buyers are sidelined, pointing to a housing market prediction of flat home prices in nominal terms and falling housing prices after inflation. Dave and analyst Nick Maggiulli connect today's risk-on/risk-off behavior back to housing and outline three paths: melt-up followed by a correction, a long fizzle, or a supply-driven drop that's least likely. Nick also shares a practical playbook so you can position for any housing market forecast, focus on income growth, keep investing steadily, and aim for “doubles” in real estate while protecting your downside.

Are property taxes actually illegal theft from homeowners? This episode dives deep into the growing chorus of Americans claiming property taxes violate constitutional property rights, examining two main legal arguments: the "no true ownership" theory, and possible Fifth Amendment violations. These arguments are gaining steam in several states, but are they legally valid? On The Market host Dave Meyer explores that question, plus how rising home prices are driving property tax reform movements across states like Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, potentially reshaping the housing market by reducing ownership costs and affecting home prices, mortgage affordability, and regional migration patterns.

Is chasing hot markets like Austin and Nashville actually hurting your long-term wealth building?

While the national average home price hit a new record high, prices in more than one third of major U.S. housing markets are now declining, particularly in Florida and Texas where some areas face crash-level drops.

With sellers now outnumbering buyers in many cities for the first time in over a decade, investors are facing new opportunities and new risks. The panel dives into how mortgage rates, housing inventory, and even the potential privatization of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could impact housing prices, interest rates, and your 2025 housing market forecast.
