In this episode of the REconomy Podcast™, Chief Economist Mark Fleming and Deputy Chief Economist Odeta Kushi examine rising foreclosure data and help put the latest numbers into perspective.

HOA foreclosures are surging nationwide, and most homeowners don't realize their HOA can place a lien — and in about 20 states, legally foreclose — even if their mortgage is completely paid off.In this week's market trends podcast episode, Matt Lombardi and Steve Kaempf break down the "super-priority" laws behind this, why HOA-related foreclosures jumped 40% over two years, and why rising insurance and repair costs are forcing associations to skip grace periods and move straight to legal action.Also this week: Zillow lays off 500 employees just before earnings, continuing a pattern of AI-driven cuts. The Fed holds rates steady at its July meeting under new chair Kevin Warsh, despite a surprisingly split committee — and mortgage rates have surged to a one-year high as a result, now hovering around 6.7%. Plus, NAR releases its Q2 progress report on legal wins, broker relations, and legislative advocacy; JPMorgan Chase commits $750 billion through 2035 to boost homeownership; and Illinois' housing permit drought (second-worst in the nation) is quietly fueling a supply crisis even as the state's population grows.New episodes of Market Trends drop every Monday — subscribe so you don't miss the next one.#HOA #Foreclosure #HousingMarket2026 #RealEstateNews #MarketTrends #MortgageRates #FederalReserve #Zillow #RealEstateInvesting #ChicagoRealEstate #markettrends #peoplenottitles Full episodes available at www.peoplenottitles.comPeople, Not Titles podcast is hosted by Steve Kaempf and is dedicated to lifting up professionals in the real estate and business community.

Foreclosures just spiked 21% and everyone is asking the same question: is this 2008 all over again?We pull the curtain back on the scariest housing number of the year. You'll learn why 230,000 foreclosure filings is still 87% below the last crisis, why today's problem is carrying costs not bad credit and which loans are actually first in line to go underwater. Plus: the debate that had to be settled live with data (let us know in the comments who won).In this episode:- Delinquency vs. foreclosure vs. short sale. What each one really means- Why 2008 was a credit crisis and 2026 is a cost squeeze- The COVID forbearance backlog finally hitting the numbers- The 4 states getting hit hardest right now- How investors buy pre-foreclosures at 70–80 cents on the dollar
Foreclosures are rising, but that does not automatically mean the 2026 housing market is heading toward another crash. The comparison behind the headline changes the entire story. In this episode, Tim and Julie Harris explain why real estate agents should stop comparing today's market to the abnormal COVID housing years. They break down the difference between market normalization and genuine crisis conditions, why homeowner equity matters, and where limited pre-foreclosure listing opportunities may exist. They also explain how fear-based predictions affect buyer behavior, seller decisions, and agent productivity. An agent who expects the market to collapse may stop prospecting, delay skill development, and wait for conditions that never arrive. What you'll learn: You'll learn how to evaluate foreclosure headlines, compare current conditions with 2019 and the 2008 crisis, identify potential pre-foreclosure opportunities, analyze your local MLS, and build the skills required to serve clients in any market. Serious real estate agents do not build careers around perfect conditions. They learn how to generate listings, communicate with authority, negotiate effectively, and pivot as the market changes.

Foreclosures just jumped 21% year-over-year, with over 227,000 US properties filed in the first half of 2026 — but Matt Lombardi and Steve Kaempf break down why this isn't a crash, it's a return to a more normal market. They dig into which states are getting hit hardest (Florida, South Carolina, Indiana) and where foreclosures are accelerating fastest (Idaho, Colorado, Georgia), plus what this means for investors looking to step into distressed properties the right way.The bigger story: a new provision in the 21st Century Road to Housing Act just banned institutional investors who own 350+ single-family homes from buying any more to rent out — killing the "scattered site portfolio" strategy that let Wall Street compete directly with everyday buyers. Combine that with starter homes now averaging $344,000 (up from $256,000 just six years ago) and pending home sales slumping 5.4% month-over-month, and the housing market is shifting in ways most people haven't caught onto yet.Also covered: downtown Chicago's latest office-to-apartment conversion, Chicago's Fair Renter Protection Ordinance counter-proposal, Illinois' overhaul of property tax sales, and this week's viewer mail on the aging realtor demographic.New episodes of Market Trends drop every Monday — subscribe so you don't miss the next one.#HousingMarket2026 #Foreclosures #RealEstateNews #MarketTrends #StarterHomes #RealEstateInvesting #ChicagoRealEstate #HousingLaw #InstitutionalInvestors #RealtorLife #peoplenottitles Full episodes available at www.peoplenottitles.comPeople, Not Titles podcast is hosted by Steve Kaempf and is dedicated to lifting up professionals in the real estate and business community.

Are you ready to stop chasing traditional real estate flips and start dominating the high-yield world of paper investing? In this episode of The Note Closers Show, Scott Carson breaks down a highly lucrative, real-world case study on a vacant, non-performing reverse mortgage (HECM) located in the booming market of Waco, Texas—home of Baylor University! This unique asset has been on the radar for nearly a year, and Scott shares exclusive details after personally driving the neighborhood and walking the exterior of this red-brick family home. When an elderly reverse mortgage borrower passes away, the family often walks away, leaving a property packed with hidden equity and a fast-track path to profitability for savvy note buyers. Scott pulls back the curtain on the asset's internal BPO, dissecting the interior condition, the layout of the property, and the exact foreclosure timeline in the state of Texas. You will learn how to analyze the legal balance against real-world comps, manage a cosmetic "lipstick on a pig" clean-out budget, and protect your capital from market devaluations. Whether your goal is a quick 90-day foreclosure auction exit that yields a staggering 40% to 80% annualized ROI, or taking the asset back as an REO to capture a $39,000 net profit, this episode delivers the exact step-by-step numbers you need to replicate this strategy. Scott also maps out the critical due diligence items every investor must verify, from pulling fresh title reports to utilizing a realtor walk-through before pulling the trigger. Tune in to discover how short-term distressed note plays can secure major double-digit returns for your self-directed IRA or passive investment portfolio! Key Topics Covered in This Episode:Understanding HECM Investing: What happens when a reverse mortgage borrower passes away, and how investors can capitalize on the resulting distressed debt. Waco Market Dynamics: A deep dive into a 3-bed, 2-bath brick property located right around the corner from the highly rated Waco Midway community. Dissecting the Case Study Numbers: Breaking down the $148,000 legal balance against a Zillow fair market value of $214,000. The 80% vs. 90% Par Bidding Strategy: How offering different price points on the legal balance changes your annualized yields and downside protection. Foreclosure Auction Exit: The mechanics of Texas's rapid 90-day foreclosure timeline and how an auction payoff generates immediate cash velocity. The REO & Rehab Blueprint: Budgeting for an interior clean-out, appliances, and paint while projecting a $225,000 retail exit strategy. Essential Due Diligence Checklist: How to leverage lockbox codes, review internal BPOs, identify potential title liens, and calculate true days on market. Don't let your investment capital sit idle.

Welcome to another episode of The AZREIA Show! In this episode, Michael Del Prete, Executive Director of AZREIA, breaks down the latest trends shaping the Arizona real estate market and explains why today's conditions may offer one of the most predictable investing environments in recent years.

In this episode of The MHP Broker's Tips and Tricks to Investing podcast, Maxwell Baker, president of The Mobile Home Park Broker, gives a mid-year State of the Industry 2026 update. As with every Tips and Tricks podcast episode, this one is brought to you by The MHP Broker's proprietary Community Price Maximizer. Use this four-step system to get the highest price possible for your mobile home park or RV community when you sell it through The MHP Broker. Guaranteed. Call Max for details. Here Are The Show Highlights: The mobile home park and RV park market is not dead, but it is a lot more disciplined. Deals still move when pricing lines up with today's debt reality. (Max, 00:55) Banks are asking harder questions now. More equity, cleaner financials, stronger collections, and lower loan amounts can change the deal fast. (Max, 02:12) Clean deals are getting rewarded. Good occupancy, clean books, public utilities, real collections, and stable tenants all matter more in this market. (Max, 02:58) The deals getting the most attention fall into two buckets: steady, predictable income and true value-add opportunities with real upside. (Max, 03:17) Foreclosures are showing up in a way Max has not seen since 2011 and 2012, creating a growing segment of opportunities and challenges in the market. (Max, 03:47) Many operators are finding that CapEx is growing faster than rent growth, causing value-add deals to become much harder to execute than originally planned. (Max, 04:22) Overpriced parks with messy books, weak collections, bad infrastructure, and 2021 pricing expectations are struggling to attract buyers. (Max, 05:03) Buyers are still active, but lenders are forcing greater discipline throughout the acquisition process. (Max, 05:18) Here are the Power Quotes from This Episode: "Will the lender believe the numbers? Are they legit? Does the income support the debt?" (Max, 02:38) "That is why clean deals are getting rewarded." (Max, 02:58) "The lower the risk, the higher the reward for you sellers." (Max, 03:08) "A lot of these parks are getting away from them because CapEx keeps building and building and rent growth is not growing as fast as the CapEx is." (Max, 04:47) "The market is rewarding cash flow, clarity, and financeable deals." (Max, 05:52)

How to Profit From Pre-Foreclosures | Robert Ferra breaks down a real estate strategy most investors completely overlook: lending to homeowners before foreclosure happens. In this episode, Robert shares how his background in residential and commercial lending led him to create a business focused on helping homeowners save their houses while creating secure, high-yield opportunities for investors. He explains the math behind the model, the biggest mistakes investors make, how to evaluate risk, why consumer and bank law matter, and how this niche can create both profit and real impact when done the right way. _______________________________ If you want to learn how to run your business in 5 hours or less....

Economic indicators in "MAGA country" and Trump's hemorrhaging right-leaning independent voters indicate it may not matter how gerrymandered some red states are.Farm bankruptcies are climbing. Foreclosures are at a six-year high. Red states lead the way.Tariffs have done 'significant damage' to the economy.... and yet, Georgia Republicans are still "all-in" for Trump. Baffling!Well, as CNN's Harry Enten notes, right-leaning independents are leaving the "Trump train" in droves.

The fundamentals of our economy are… present. Welcome to Remember Shuffle's ongoing multi-part series on the financial crisis of 2008 and the ensuing Great Recession. The Shuffle Bois begin with some table setting to explain the complex financial instruments and deregulation that led to the crisis - mortgage backed securities, collateralized debt obligations, credit default swaps, and synthetic collateralized debt obligations - and introducing the rogues gallery of characters for this story. They then go beat-by-beat through the collapsing economy of 2008 and trace the decisions that were made by those running the banks as well as by those in power. They close, as always, with some themes and big ideas - including the separation of risk from incentive and the failures of neoliberal deregulation - before turning to the echoes in the culture, which are profound for this topic.Check out our website to search for episodes at: remembershuffle.comGive Remember Shuffle a follow on Twitter And on Instagram @RememberShufflePod to interact with the show between episodes.

Are you looking to break into the Texas real estate market but tired of the heavy competition in the "Triangle" (Dallas, Houston, Austin)? In this episode, we sit down with the "Texas Tax Lien Legend" himself, Arnie Abramson. With over 30 years of experience, Arnie is the former president of the Texas REIA and an acknowledged expert in the unique world of Texas foreclosure auctions.We dive deep into why Texas is a Tax Deed State, not a tax lien state, and why that distinction is a massive advantage for investors. Arnie explains the mechanics of "First Tuesday" auctions, the 25% redemption penalty that works in the investor's favor, and how to find hidden gems in smaller, growing counties like Hunt, Collin, and Hays.If you are a new or seasoned real estate investor, this episode is a masterclass in navigating the complexities of trustee sales and tax foreclosures in the Lone Star State.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Tax Deeds vs. Tax Liens: Why buying the property outright is better than just buying the debt.The "First Tuesday" Rule: How Texas auctions work and why timing is everything.Cashier's Check Strategies: Navigating the payment requirements for different types of sales.The 25% Redemption Rule: How investors earn massive returns even if a property is redeemed.The Power of Smaller Markets: Why Arnie avoids the Big 5 cities and where the real profit is hiding.Helping Homeowners: How Arnie uses owner-financing and "equity deals" to create win-win situations for families in distress.Join the Team: Arnie is looking for partners to help with due diligence, property previews, and bidding across Texas.That's a wrap on this masterclass with the man, the myth, and the legend, Arnie Abraham! If there is one thing you should take away from today, it's that Texas real estate waits for no one—especially on the First Tuesday of the month.Whether you're ready to dive into the tax deed game yourself or you want to partner up with a veteran who has seen it all, now is the time to act. Don't let these off-market opportunities pass you by while you're stuck fighting for scraps in the big cities. Grab your phone, save Arnie's number, and start building that Texas-sized portfolio you've always dreamed of.Remember: in Texas, we do everything fast—fast highways, fast foreclosures, and fast paths to wealth if you know the right people. Thanks for tuning in, and we'll see you at the next auction!"Connect with Arnie Abraham:Arnie is looking for dedicated individuals to help expand his research and bidding operations into more Texas counties.

Decoding the 2026 Foreclosure Market: Ratios, Reality, and Real Estate OpportunityWelcome to a high-octane episode of The Note Closers Show! As we kick off the second quarter of 2026, the housing market is undergoing a "gradual normalization," but the numbers tell a story that many headlines are missing. Your host, Scott Carson, dives deep into the February 2026 data to separate the "false flags" from the genuine investment goldmines. If you've been watching foreclosure filings creep up and wondering where the inventory is actually hiding, this episode is your roadmap to the states with the most distressed debt and the strategies to profit from it.We aren't just looking at the top 15 states by ratio; we are looking at the heavy hitters—the states where the sheer volume of filings creates a playground for note investors. From the sunshine of Florida to the lone star of Texas, we break down why the "Gamecock State" and the "Hoosier State" are popping up on our radar and how you can leverage this data to build a recession-resistant portfolio. Stop waiting for the market to come to you and start taking action on the distressed assets that are hitting the books right now.Key Topics Covered in This Episode:The "Ratio" Trap vs. Real Volume: We expose why looking at foreclosure ratios (1 in every X households) can be a false flag, ranking small states like Delaware high despite having only 190 filings, while ignoring the massive opportunities in states like California and New York.National Trends and Normalization: A deep dive into the 38,840 properties with foreclosure filings in February 2026—a 20% jump from the previous year—marking 12 consecutive months of year-over-year increases as the market returns to pre-pandemic norms.State-by-State Breakdown: Detailed analysis of the top 15 states, including Indiana (ranked #1 by ratio), Florida (the volume leader with 4,504 filings), and the specific "hit-hard" counties like Cuyahoga in Ohio and Wayne in Michigan.Investment Exit Strategies: Moving beyond the auction block, we discuss 11 different exit strategies, including buying notes at a discount, loan modifications, trial payment plans, and deed-in-lieu of foreclosure to keep borrowers in their homes while securing cash flow.The Note Business Advantage: Why buying the debt is superior to traditional real estate investing, especially when borrowers file for bankruptcy, and how to avoid the "last-minute realtor" trap of trying to buy a note the week of an auction.The data is clear: foreclosure activity is rising, but success depends on your ability to look past the ratios and find the volume. Whether you're interested in the fast-foreclosure states like Michigan or the long-game opportunities in South Carolina, the second quarter of 2026 is the time to quit "kicking the can" and start making moves.Ready to turn these lists into deals?

In this episode of Real Estate News, host Kathy Fettke breaks down the latest mortgage data and what it means for today's housing market. A new report from Intercontinental Exchange shows that mortgage delinquencies are edging higher, with serious delinquencies rising and cure rates slowing. At the same time, foreclosure activity is beginning to increase off recent lows—an early signal investors should be watching. While overall delinquency levels remain below pre-pandemic norms, the data suggests that more borrowers are struggling to catch up once they fall behind. In this update, Kathy explains what's driving these trends, how they could impact housing supply, and what real estate investors should keep an eye on in the months ahead.

Send us Fan MailWhat's really stopping you from closing your first real estate deal? We pull back the curtain on the ten roadblocks that keep smart people stuck—fear, “no money,” not knowing what to say, paperwork panic, even the surprising fear of success—and we turn each one into a practical next step. From a raw story of getting fired at Denny's to knocking on foreclosure doors with a baby on the hip, we show how action, not perfection, builds confidence and checks.We walk you through the easiest on-ramp in the game: wholesaling with a $10 earnest deposit and a clear, ethical seller conversation. You'll hear the exact script to open doors, how to frame solutions without pressure, and why title companies and mentors can keep your paperwork clean. Then we move from first wins to a real plan: sustain momentum with daily lead habits, grow into rentals and small commercial, and eventually lend your capital to scale without the grind. Throughout, we tackle market anxiety head-on—why adaptable investors profit in boom or bust—and reframe failure as tuition you only pay once if you learn fast.If you're ready to stack “gold bricks” in your money, health, relationships, and faith, this conversation gives you the mindset and the method. No license needed. No perfect timing required. Just a simple system, steady courage, and a community that has your back. Start with the $10 move, bank your first assignment fee, and let that proof reshape what you believe is possible. If this fires you up, share it with a friend who needs a push, subscribe for more step-by-step strategy, and leave a quick review to tell us what fear you're ditching first.

If foreclosure sellers are hanging up on you, ghosting your appointments, or saying “we're good” when you know they're not, you're not losing deals at the offer. You're losing them in the first 30 seconds.I've closed over $10 million in foreclosure deals and the #1 mistake I see wholesalers make is they call like a telemarketer and ask like they don't belong there. This video breaks down the exact 4-step script I use to get foreclosure owners to open up, trust me, and set same-day appointments — and actually show up.Here's what we cover:→ Step 1: How to open the call so they don't hang up→ Step 2: The one question that builds trust fast (hint: it has nothing to do with the house)→ Step 3: How to get them to face reality without getting defensive→ Step 4: How to set the appointment — stop asking, start tellingIf you follow these four steps in order, sellers stop hiding the truth and start saying yes. This is the same framework I've used to close deal after deal — and what I teach inside the PRYME Academy.Think you're ready to start closing bigger foreclosure deals?

If you are, we'll get on a call together, break down your business, and map out your exact next steps.____________________________________________________________

When foreclosures rise, smart investors start looking for deals. In this episode of The Vinney And Beau Show, Vinney (Smile) Chopra and Beau Eckstein talk about why market shifts can create powerful buying opportunities. Vinney Chopra—who came to the U.S. with just $7 and built a portfolio approaching a billion dollars—shares how many investors and students are finding quality multifamily properties at much lower prices as distress and foreclosures begin to appear. While many people hesitate during uncertain markets, experienced investors understand that cycles create opportunity. Beau Eckstein, a lending expert and business ownership coach, explains why disciplined investors focus on fundamentals rather than headlines. In this clip you'll learn: • Why foreclosures can create major entry opportunities • How investors find undervalued multifamily deals • Why down markets often produce the best investments Opportunities don't appear when markets feel comfortable—they appear when others hesitate.

Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/KaVDcnFpjac Day 7 of the Kouri Richins murder trial dove deep into the defense's motive argument, focusing entirely on the mounting financial pressure, enormous debt, and alleged fraud by Kouri Richins leading up to Eric Richins' death. A forensic accountant, Brooke Karrington, laid out the full scope of Kouri's financial situation, detailing a "gathering storm" of obligations that seemed to be on the verge of collapse just days before Eric's death in March 2022. The defense's cross-examination attempted to poke holes in the motive, but the financial facts paint a clear picture of a crumbling financial "house of cards" that was allegedly held up by fraudulent schemes.

Send us a textStop waiting on the market to bless you with deals. We're pulling back the curtain on the five public-record lead sources that keep producing—foreclosure, divorce, probate, unpaid taxes, and bankruptcy—and showing how to work them step by step. I walk through the real foreclosure timeline, what your county site actually reveals, and why most investors show up months late with stale lists. You'll learn where bankruptcy filings live, how to match them to foreclosure records, and why those last-minute moves signal a seller who needs real help right now.This conversation blends strategy with story. I share how losing a house and a car pushed me to the courthouse, a paper map, and door knocking with a baby on my hip—and how that grit led to the first $22k, then $50k, and a career built on solving people's problems. We talk scripts that lead with options and empathy, from loan mods and forbearance to selling as-is or using creative financing when it makes sense. If you've ever felt paralyzed by headlines—rates, inventory, recession chatter—this is your antidote: consistent deals rooted in life events that never stop.You'll leave with a simple plan: pull fresh filings from the last 45–60 days, prioritize by sale dates, and reach out directly. Door knock if you can. If not, combine letters, calls, and social DMs that promise tangible help and a clean exit if needed. That's how you create triple wins for owners, banks, and your business while stacking steady “gold bricks” of profit. Ready to build a recession-proof pipeline?
