 They say that 10,000 hours of practice will make you an expert at whatever task you've set your mind to. If that's the case, what does 120 years of practice make you? (That's 1,051,000 hours, for the record).In 2023, Continental marked its 120th year of retreading truck and bus tires. Today, the tire manufacturer retreads more than one million truck and bus tires worldwide every year – conserving resources and reducing costs all along the way. In fact, according to a study by the Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology (UMSICHT), retreaded tires reduce CO2 emissions by up to 50% compared to new tires. The amount of recycled and renewable materials in retreaded tires can be up to 85%.While the benefits of retread tires haven't waned, modern retreading facilities are very different from those designed a century ago. For example, today these factories use barcode tracking to monitor tires throughout the retreading process, which has significantly improved efficiency and data collection, allowing for better analysis and decision-making. Plus, today's factories have inspection equipment to ensure the tires leaving the factory are of the highest quality possible. "[Continental's] inspection process allows us to know what's happened in a casing and make some good predictive models of whether that casing will be retreadable. From a continental point of view, we also have a high-pressure test at the end of our process so that we can ensure that anything that gets through the process is going to be a safe and reliable retread when it gets mounted on and aired up and goes onto the tire," says John Cox, head of retread truck tires Americas. "The overall inspection is going to keep the retread better as well."In this episode of What's Treading with Tire Review, Cox discusses the advancements and changes in the tire retreading industry, retread market trends in 2024, and the importance of tire dealers advising their fleet customers on the benefits of retreading.Tire Review: www.tirereview.comAAPEX: www.aapexshow.com

Welcome to another episode of the Remote Real Estate Investor. I'm Michael Albaum and today I'm joined by Monique Kelly, who is a Roofstock certified agent out in Jackson, Mississippi and she's going to be talking to us about all of the things we as investors need to know, and what we should be aware of as we're getting involved in the Jackson market. So let's get into it.   Hey, everyone, just a real quick shout out before we get into the episode today, on Wednesday, June 15th at 5pm Pacific time, I'm going to be hosting a group coaching session inside the Roofstock Academy. So that is for all of our Academy members on short term rentals. So we're gonna get together I sent out a message in Slack, I'll be sending everyone an email as well.

Look forward to seeing y'all in there.   Hey, Monique Kelly, thank you so much for taking the time to come on and chat with me today about the Jackson Mississippi market. I really appreciate you coming on.   Monique: Yeah, thanks, Michael. I'm so excited to be on with you today.   Michael: Me, too. So let's just jump right into it and then we'll circle back to your background. Why should people be excited about the Jackson Mississippi market?   Monique: Well, it has historically been a really great market for rental properties. People tend to pay a pretty high price point for rentals, I don't really know why. But historically, that's been the way it is and so, you know, it's a great place to invest. You know, the property prices are not too high. But the rent values are pretty high. So you know, it's just a, it's a growing area as well, so just a good a good area to invest in.   Michael: Just love it and give us a little bit of background on who you are as an individual and where you come from and what is it that you're doing in real estate today?   Monique: Well, I grew up in here in Mississippi, my family has been in real estate. So I've been around real estate since I was in diapers. My dad started this company about 40 years ago and he started our company with my grandmother and my aunt and so I've just been around it my whole life. I started selling real estate right outside of college and worked with my mom for several years. We were kind of a team. She's since retired and you know, I do this full time I've been selling since 2007. So and then in the past, like, I'd say three or four years, my main focus has been investors, and most of them are from out of state. So it's been interesting, pretty crazy ride, but I really love it.   Michael: Awesome and I think most of our listeners may not know the difference between like what an investor buyer client versus an owner occupant buyer client looks like. So why did you make the shifts to work with investors and what are some of the differences that you found?   Monique: Well, um, it kind of was just something that happened, honestly, I'd started working with some local investors and then I got a call, you'd like a an open door with Roofstock and so I kind of had a little bit of the experience and my family, they've all been investing, you know, as long as I can remember, they've owned lots of rental properties and so I've seen it firsthand and I've seen you know what a great income that can be for people and so once I started working with Roofstock, it just kind of blew up and that's been my main focus. You know, it's great that I get to meet people from other areas of the country and even over the world, you know, and get to share the great things about Mississippi and most have never been here. So, you know, it's just great to introduce them to Mississippi and the market here and they're usually pretty shocked with the value of the homes that they can purchase here for and get good rent and everything so, but they are different than owner occupants. You know, of course, they're looking at cash flow, and they're looking at numbers and so I tried to find really good deals and properties that are in great shape. So there's not a lot of maintenance up front or issues in the beginning and try to find a good product for a good solid product that's going to bring in some good income. So Jackson is in what's considered Hinds County it's central Mississippi would be, and then around it, you have Madison County and Rankin County and so the population would be, you know, the large population would be in all three of those counties. I would say the main, probably study jobs come from government jobs. It is the state capitol. So we have a lot of state government jobs and then we have local government jobs, I would say probably number two, the employment would be medical and we have a ton of hospitals. We've got the big teaching hospital in Jackson. So you have a lot of med students, nursing students, dental students, and then you've got nurses and doctors and just a lot of people in the medical field that live around here and then I'd also say Trucking is another big industry here. We are centrally located. So if you go north, you hit Memphis, you go south, you hit New Orleans, if you go west, you're gonna hit Dallas and if you go east, you're gonna hit Atlanta. So you have a lot of traffic, and truckers coming through and so that is actually a big source of jobs here is.   Michael: Interesting.     Monique: We did we are… Yeah, yeah. So I'm in Canton, which is part of Madison County, Amazon is building a facility. So that will be a new source of jobs pretty soon. We do have a Continental Tire factory and Clinton, Mississippi, which is part of Heinz and, you know, so there are some other things, but it's pretty diverse here, most of the jobs.   Michael: Fantastic, so for anyone listening, we're gonna be doing a kind of walkthrough of Jackson, Mississippi. So take it away, Monique, where should people be looking to find some of those cash flowing rentals and what neighborhoods are you most excited about?   Monique: Well, okay, so um, I would kind of break it down into three counties. So you've got sort of like the higher income higher rent county would be Madison County and if you look, it's kind of up north of 55, you'll see Madison and if you look up where Lipstadt is right above it, that is actually a brand new city. So it was part of Madison, it still has Madison address, but they just became a city, they've just voted for a sheriff and they're going to vote for a mayor and that part of Madison is growing major. I mean, there are new restaurants coming and just a lot of growth in that area and it's actually not in the city limits. So you have tend to have lower taxes, it's part of the county and that area is where you're going to get the top rents in the whole Jackson metro area. The schools are some of the top schools in the state and that's a big reason why people want to be there and so I would say on average, the rent in that area is going to be around 2300 a month would be the median.   Michael: Wow, okay. Yeah, for like, three to kind of run of the mill home.   Monique: Yeah, you're looking at maybe 16 to 1700 square feet, and you're probably going to get around 2300 a month for that property.   Michael: Right on and where are you seeing purchase prices?   Monique: The median purchase price is around 363.   Michael: All right, cool.   Monique: So but you know, you're able to get a property for under 300, you know, maybe 250 to 300 and rent it out somewhere between 20 320 500. So, also, you know, of course, if you get four bedrooms, you're gonna get closer to 3000 for it.   Michael: Okay. Right on.   Monique: Yeah, so that's, that's a great area, I would say probably the middle part would be Rankin County, which if you go down, where you'll see, Brandon… close to 25. I don't know if you see how a 25 right there. That's going to be in Rankin County and I would consider that sort of kind of like in the middle of the three counties and in that, at that area, I would say the median rent you're gonna get is around 1700. You could probably get close to 2000 or a little more, depending on the size of the house. You know how new it is and there are a lot of new houses in that area as well. So there's still there's growth in there too and they have great schools too and I would say the average price for a house would be around 270 and then I would say so then after that would be Hinds County and that's where Jackson is and it's pretty diverse. I mean, you've got little pockets in there. Have that are going to be a little different and so the numbers I kind of pulled are pretty broad. But for Hinds County, you're looking at an average rent of around 1350. Some of the areas, you might get a little more, you might get closer to 1700. Like in Clinton over here. It's kind of like its own little community. There's a university there and it's actually where I went to school at Mississippi College University and so it's a little bit different than the rest of Hinds County, but and the average price for a house there would be around 207,000.   Michael: Okay, right. So kind of starting to approach that 1% rule, so to speak.   Monique: Yeah, yeah, you'll probably get a little bit more cash flow in Hinds County. But the houses tend to be older. You know, there's tends to be a little bit more maintenance and things there. But, you know, any of those counties are great areas to invest in.   Michael: Perfect and talk to us a little bit, Monique, about how property taxes work out in if the three counties vary drastically, or if statewide, it's kind of similar.   Monique: Well, so we do have homestead exemption in Mississippi and so you know, it that pretty much cuts taxes in half for an owner occupant and so you know, an investor is going to pay almost double, then when an owner occupant pays and each area is different. It depends on if it's in the city, the county, it what fire district it's in and so when I put, you know, upload properties to Roofstock, I tried to do all of that up front and put the investors tax amount into their, you know, Roofstock website so that they're getting the accurate amount and so I'm able to do that sometimes on the tax records, they can they'll let me do a tax estimator type thing and so it just varies depending on the location, how I get the taxes, but.   Michael: Okay and let's just take a kind of shot in the dark for a $250,000 purchase price. What are you estimating ballpark for taxes, is it 1% of the purchase price, is it some other number? How should folks be thinking about that.   Monique: In Jackson, it's a lot higher. So a property and Jack that will and it also depends. So in Mississippi, they don't base it on the actual value of the property, they have an assessed value, and it typically is about 80% lower than the actual value. So what I do is I go look at the tax records, figure out the actual assessed value, and then I can base it off of that. So it just depends. In Jackson, you're gonna pay city taxes, which tend to be a little higher county taxes in school taxes, and Madison, some of the areas you wouldn't pay city would only be county and school and so it can vary a lot with that. But I do try to give an accurate amount when I put in input any properties so that they know that upfront or if you know it have been investors interested in a property and is curious about the taxes, I'm happy to make sure to give them an accurate amount as well.   Michael: Okay, fantastic. Well, that's a really good point to make about the homestead exemption. So for anyone listening out there, if they go on Zillow, and find an owner occupant home and look at the tax record and think, Oh, great, this is the amount I'm going to pay, they should at least be doubling it and then Monique, does the assessed value change on any kind of regular frequency, like here in California, anytime the property is sold, that's when they reassess the property at the price point at which it was purchased. So does a sale trigger reassessment or is it just every couple of years or how does that work?   Monique: It's every couple years, the sale does not trigger it. So I think it's every like four to seven years, it gets reassessed.   Michael: Okay, fantastic and talk to us about some of the things that are kind of maybe nuanced or unique to Jackson or maybe Mississippi in general, when it comes to like home inspections. In California, we have termites, that's a very common thing. So if you see termites, it's not the end of the world as long as the damage isn't super extensive. But if you're not used to that, that can make investors run to the hills. So what should people expect to find what's kind of par for the course in the Jackson market when it comes to home inspections?   Monique: Okay, so in Central Mississippi, we have what's called Yazoo clay in the soil, and it can cause a lot of foundation issues. Just settlement in general. I would say in older homes, it's more common. Now they pretty much will do soil tests, dig up you know, so many feet of the clay and putting good soil so you don't typically see it with newer properties. You might see a little bit of settlement like a little crack in here or there but it's not anything major. But some of the older homes like in Jackson, or even southern brand and a Madison, I mean, depending on the age, it's a little bit more common and so there's a lot of houses that have had foundation work, or they might need it and so I do try to steer people clear from that, just because it can be an ongoing thing. You know, once you repair, it doesn't guarantee that you won't have more movement. You know, because that clay it's going to expand or shrink, depending on how wet it is and we have a lot of rain here in Mississippi. So um, you know, I do try to steer clear that, but I can usually tell, you know, we can look at engineer report and see how extensive the movement is, if it's within so many inches, like three inches, it's not really anything major. But more than that, and it can become a pretty major thing. We also have termites in Mississippi. So I do see some of that, but as long as it's not extensive damage, it's typically okay, those are probably the two major things that you would want to look for.   Michael: Great and what about natural disasters and this might be a silly question. But do you all have hail down there or tornadoes or hurricanes, right, that sort of thing.   Monique: We don't typically get the hurricanes. We're a little too far north from the coast. But we do get hail damage and some wind damage, we can get some pretty straight line winds, and there are tornadoes that come through here. So people might notice if they start looking at disclosures, that roofs are pretty much replaced pretty frequently, and it is due to hail damage, you'll get a storm that comes through and you'll notice in a certain area, all the roofs got replaced around that time period. So but that is that's pretty much it. We pretty much have mild weather here. We don't get a lot of snow, if we get shut down if we get any snow. Because it's so rare and yeah, but we do get a lot of rain. It's pretty wet here and we do get some tornadoes and things like that here.   Michael: Okay. Awesome and kind of in thinking about the some of the natural disasters, and that leads me down the insurance path. What do you see, do you have like a ballpark estimator for what insurance costs are in Jackson?   Monique: I mean, I would say, it just depends on the price of the house, how new the house is how new the roof is. But for a newer house, like around, I don't know, $300,000 that the insurance will probably be about 1000, somewhere around there.   Michael: Okay, awesome, awesome, that's great and for everyone listening who is interested in the Jackson market, definitely be looking at your wind or hail deductibles. Oftentimes, those policies have a different deductible, which is different than the fire. So it's in a high prone area, the insurance companies say no no no, you got to pay a higher deductible for this kind of stuff. So that's great to know. Monique, tell us any final thoughts, things that people should be aware of tips, tricks, advice for folks how to be competitive in today's market or things they could do better in working with you as they're making offers?   Monique: Yeah, so I recently pulled up to see how much inventory we currently have and so right now, for Rankin County, we've got about one month's worth of inventory and then I also pulled up the rentals, and we've got about 1.9 months' worth of inventory. So almost two months, for Madison, for homes for sale, we've got about one month of inventory and then for the rentals in Madison, we've got about a month and a half worth. Hinds County, we've got two months inventory of houses for sale, and for the rentals about two and a half months and so it's still a really competitive market. There's still a lot of buyers that haven't been able to purchase anything yet. So they're still looking still have a lot of investors trying to invest here and so there's still multiple offers and so you have to make competitive offers, you know, to have a chance and so most are gonna sell for above list price right now and I would say the biggest thing that has helped me when writing offers and getting them accepted is if it's not cash, then to add an appraisal clause where you're willing to pay the difference between appraisal price and purchase price and we often cap it just so that the investor feels comfortable with it. But that has been the most successful tool and getting offers accepted and it just helps them be competitive with the cash offers that don't have those contingencies.   Michael: Okay, and so for anyone that's not familiar with what, what Monique is talking about, let's break it down. So let's say you're gonna go buy $150,000 house, and you say, okay, I'm willing and the bank with a bank loan, and the bank is going to come appraise the house, and the bank is only going to lend you 80%, say of what the value of the home is. So if the bank comes in and says, hey, actually, the house is only worth 140 grand, they're only going to give you 80% of 140 and so you've got to come up with that difference to get to that 150 purchase price. That's what you're talking about, right?   Monique: Right, right. Yeah and it's usually not much difference. Um, we're talking five to 10,000, you know, that somebody would be willing to pay the difference for so I'm not seeing your appraisals coming much lower than that. They usually come in at contract price, honestly. But it just gives that amazing set. They're gonna, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. But it just gives that seller the assurance that they're going to make a certain amount, and that's very appealing when there's other offers on the table.   Michael: Okay. Great to know, and how many days on market are you seeing most of the properties sit for? I mean, is it, are they getting souped up within hours of getting listed or is it a week? I mean, how fast should people be prepared to move?   Monique: I would say usually within one to two days, those houses are pending. So you know, as soon as it goes on the market, I would make the offer. Sometimes they're giving about three days. But at that point, they have so many offers to shuffle through. A lot of sellers are choosing to do it quicker than that. Just so they don't have to continue with the showings and go through so many offers. Yeah, I'd say a day or two.   Michael: Okay, so for everyone listening out there, if you're ready to move quick, have your pre approval letters, have your proof of funds ready to go and be making strong offers? That's good to know. Well, Monique, thank you so much for taking the time. If people want to learn more about you or reach out to you directly. What's the best way for them to do that?   Monique: They can email me at monique@maselle.com and it's M O N I Q U E @ maselle M A S E L L E or you can call me I have my phone with me pretty much all the time. It's 601-941-4447.   Michael: Amazing. Well, many thank you again, for sharing so much wisdom and knowledge about the Jackson market. I'm sure I'll be chatting soon.   Monique: Thanks so much for having me.   Michael: Yeah you, take care. Okay, everyone, that was our episode for today. A big thank you to Monique for coming on and dropping so much knowledge and wisdom about the Jackson market sounds super interesting and while the things are still flying off the shelves, so go get them while they're hot. As always, if you liked the episode, feel free to leave us a rating or review wherever you get your podcasts and we look forward to seeing on the next one. Happy investing…

Governor Phil Bryant (2012-2020) joins America's Roundtable Radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy for a conversation on Russia's invasion of Ukraine and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky addressing a joint meeting of the House and Senate to press his case for more aid to Ukraine. According to Reuters: "Over 2 million refugees have entered Poland from Ukraine since the start of the Russian invasion on Feb. 24, the Polish border guard said on Friday." Estimates from Europe suggest that the numbers will rise to more than 5 million Ukrainians fleeing their homes in the coming weeks. The program features America's state legislatures and governors around the nation who are condemning Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine. Through a principled endeavor, both the Mississippi House of Representatives and Senate passed resolutions barring any business between state entities and Russia. Governor Bryant served two terms as Mississippi's 64th governor from 2012 to January 2020 and served as Mississippi's lieutenant governor, as state auditor, and as a legislator in the Mississippi House of Representatives. Phil Bryant is a founding member of Bryant Songy Snell Global Partners where he provides strategic advice and counsel and business development services to some of the world's largest industry leaders. He is a distinguished guest-host of America's Roundtable and serves on the International Leaders Summit's leadership board. While serving as Mississippi's chief executive officer, Governor Bryant largely centered his efforts on creating new economic opportunities, among other things. Under Governor Bryant's leadership Mississippi saw its lowest-ever unemployment rate, its lowest-ever high school dropout rate, its lowest-ever teen pregnancy rate, its highest-ever number of jobs, its highest-ever number of graduating physicians, its highest-ever K-12 reading and math improvement scores, and its highest-ever high school graduation rate. Governor Bryant's dedicated focus on economic development yielded more than $8 billion in private sector investment in Mississippi as well as the largest economic project in state history—a landmark agreement with Continental Tire to build a major manufacturing facility in central Mississippi and create more than 2,500 new jobs. Governor Bryant dovetailed public education reforms with a strong focus on workforce training programs and job creation. His administration worked to improve career-technical training programs and their delivery through Mississippi's top-rated community and junior college system, pairing program offerings with local workforce opportunities and collaborating with the K-12 system to strengthen high school vocational programs. He worked closely with the University of Mississippi Medical Center to build a new School of Medicine and to increase the number of graduating physicians each year; to position Mississippi as a national leader in telemedicine services and technology; and to create a state-of-the-art residential facility to care for medically fragile children. Governor Bryant served as chairman of the Education Commission of the States; chairman of the Southern States Energy Board; chairman of Jobs for America's Graduates; and chairman of the Royal Commonwealth Society of the United States. https://ileaderssummit.org/services/americas-roundtable-radio/ https://ileaderssummit.org/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 Twitter: @supertalk @PhilBryantMS @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

This radio segment focuses on the collapse of Afghanistan, the return of global jihad, and the future of America's security and its impact on American citizens. The conversation brings to the forefront the Biden administration's botched Afghan withdrawal and NATO allies expressing public frustration due to being kept in the dark on the pull-out. Governor Bryant speaks about his journey to Southwest Asia visiting Afghanistan and meeting with the Mississippi National Guard in the troubled region, as well as meeting with America's ally in Central Asia — the leadership of Uzbekistan's government and the recent meeting in Washington, DC, with its senior diplomat. Further reading: Air Force report: "Uzbekistan a Candidate for U.S. ‘Over-the-Horizon' Support to Afghanistan (https://www.airforcemag.com/uzbekistan-candidate-for-us-over-the-horizon-support-afghanistan/)" Central Asian News: "Uzbek soldiers win training awards in US (https://central.asia-news.com/en_GB/articles/cnmi_ca/features/2020/01/03/feature-02)" In January 2019, Uzbek special forces participated in exercises conducted by the Mississippi National Guard (https://central.asia-news.com/en_GB/articles/cnmi_ca/features/2019/02/05/feature-01).

Join America's Roundtable co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy for a conversation with Governor Phil Bryant discussing the future of education in America, critical race theory, and the 1619 Project, the latter which has even drawn sharp criticism from the left. The program will also highlight a report co-authored by Governor Bryant and Alexandra Campana titled, “Curricula: What Parents Need to Know to Get More Involved.” The report released by America First Policy Institute explains that with increased parents and citizens' involvement, America's stakeholders can restore the educational system and ensure that students are being taught high-quality curriculum rather than politically motivated deceptions about America and its founding ideals. “A diffusion of knowledge is the only guardian of true liberty.” — James Madison to George Thompson, 1825 “If virtue and knowledge are diffused among the People, they will never be enslav'd.

Join America's Roundtable co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy for a timely conversation with Governor Phil Bryant, the State of Mississippi (2012-2020), executive advisory board member of the International Leaders Summit and founding partner at Bryant Songy Snell Global Partners. The dicussion focuses on the 77th anniversary of D-Day, June 6, 1944, and reflecting on that historic day when 160,000 Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy, a 50-mile stretch of heavily-fortified French coastline with a goal to liberate Europe from Nazi Germany and hasten the end of World War II. According to published reports, 73,000 soldiers were from the United States and an estimated 6,603 Americans were killed, wounded, or missing in action on D-Day. Governor Bryant shares about his visit to The Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial, a World War II cemetery and memorial in Colleville-sur-Mer, Normandy, France, and relays the significance of ensuring that our fellow-Americans understand the significance of the sacrifices made on June 6, 1944, to advance the just cause in defeating tyranny, liberating Europe and preserving our freedoms.

Join America's Roundtable co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy for a conversation with Governor Phil Bryant, the State of Mississippi (2012-2020) and executive advisory board member, International Leaders Summit and founding partner at Bryant Songy Snell Global Partners. The dicussion focuses on America's weakened energy security with cyber attacks crippling an American company's distribution of gas resulting in the cutting off a large portion of East Coast's fuel supply. While America's administration is negotiating with Iran, the state-sponsor of terrorism, Israel is under attack by Iran-supported terrorist organization Hamas, which fired more than 2000 rockets from Gaza Strip. Governor Phil Bryant served as chairman of the Southern States Energy Board (SSEB), an interstate compact composed of governors and state legislators from sixteen southern states and two territories, and chairman of the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission. The conversation raises the urgency to address the challenges America faces in the energy arena, the potential impact on the nation's economy, security threats and principled solutions. Governor Phil Bryant served as Mississippi’s 64th governor from 2012 to 2020. Before becoming the state’s chief executive, the Honorable Phil Bryant was lieutenant governor, state auditor, and represented his legislative district in the Mississippi House of Representatives for five years. As governor, the Hon. Phil Bryant led Mississippi in implementing transformational public education reforms, promoting economic development, advancing strategic trade missions, and building a competitive business climate that attracted major employers like Amazon, Yokohama Tire Corporation and Continental Tire. According to published reports: “Under Gov. Bryant’s administration, 80,000 jobs were created and some $7 billion in private investment were brought into the state of Mississippi.” Relevant articles and video: Jewish News Syndicate (JNS) Mississippi unites with Israel at Jerusalem Leaders Summit (https://www.jns.org/mississippi-unites-with-israel-at-jerusalem-leaders-summit/) The Jerusalem Post: Love from Mississippi (https://www.jpost.com/jerusalem-report/love-from-mississippi-573674) Phil Bryant, governor of Mississippi, speaks about the U.S.-Israel relationship.
