Welcome to the Real Estate Rundown! Builder confidence just hit its third-lowest level since 2012. What does that really mean for the housing market? This week, we're unpacking the latest builder sentiment numbers, what's driving the pessimism, and how it's likely to impact new construction, inventory, and pricing in the months ahead.

From Wall Street to Main Street, the latest on the markets and what it means for your money. Updated regularly on weekdays, featuring CNBC expert analysis and sound from top business newsmakers. Anchored by CNBC's Jessica Ettinger.

Regulations, snarled supply chains, and the scarring effects of the global financial crisis have all contributed to a nationwide housing shortage over the last fifteen years. As housing unaffordability continues to limit prospective homebuyers, homebuilders must now contend with federal policies that will impact housing demand, labor availability, and costs for building materials. In this episode, we talk with Robert Dietz, Chief Economist with the National Association of Home Builders, about why there's a national housing shortage, how homebuilders view new federal policies, and the best ways to improve residential construction.

In this Chief's Chat, Ankit Sharma shares an update on the building and construction sector's outlook for 2025. Signs of slow, steady recovery are emerging, led by improving economic indicators and easing construction costs. Regional economies are driving this rebound, with momentum expected to flow into major urban centres over the next 12 to 18 months. Ankit also highlights Master Builders' regional summits, which connect members, local councils, and industry experts to tackle challenges and share solutions.The conversation closes with a focus on consenting reform. Ankit explains how collaboration between government, councils, and industry is driving practical changes like a national consenting system, risk-based approaches, and tech use to reduce delays and costs. These reforms aim to boost productivity and support builders in planning for the future. For a clear and grounded update on the sector and Master Builders' work to support members, this episode is a must-listen.Useful linkswww.constructive.org.nzRegional Constructive SummitsConstructive 2025 Registration FormWhere else you can find usWebsite: https://www.masterbuilder.org.nz/Elevate Platform: http://elevate.masterbuilder.org.nzInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/masterbuildernz/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/registeredmasterbuildersYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmh_9vl0pFf0zSB6N7RrVeg

Last week, Dustin traveled to Texas for a round-table discussion at a publicly-traded real estate development firm's retreat. The panel's topic was (TBD). What Dustin discovered was that the very same dynamics that push SaaS startups to seek greater clarity and alignment on their positioning exist in a large real estate bureaucracy: How do we establish competitive differentiation in the market, and, how do we go to market with that strategy?This week, Dustin and Mike unpack the similarities and discuss the approaches required to solve the conundrum, regardless of size and market.

As home prices rise, prospective buyers continue to bite their nails and wonder, “Where can I find affordable housing near Atlanta?” The affordable housing crisis is a nationwide conversation, but the Atlanta market is actively seeking solutions for its homebuyers. Mandy Crater, executive director of HomeAid Georgia, Natallie Keiser, executive director of HouseATL and Garrett Wiley, VP of government affairs at Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association (GAHBA) sit down with Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss the upcoming Housing Affordability Summit. Set for May 21 at GAHBA headquarters, this event will bring together professionals in the Atlanta housing sector and local legislators for a thorough discussion on affordable housing throughout the state. “I'm excited to bring all my friends together in one room and talk about the need for more housing that is attainable,” said Crater. “There's just a deficit of housing at all levels, but especially at the more affordable levels.” Homebuilder Toolkit HomeAid Georgia and HouseATL teamed up to create a toolkit for homebuilders, providing them with the knowledge and empowerment to pursue affordable housing options. This toolkit will launch at the Housing Affordability Summit, featuring case studies on Atlanta-specific projects and a focus on four partnership models – public sector, private sector, nonprofit sector and the philanthropic sector. Homebuilders can access design methods, land acquisition strategies, financing advice and more, right at their fingertips. The average home price has risen 35% over the last five years, which dramatically affects first-time homebuyers and retirees looking to downsize. Keiser points out that homeownership is an avenue for equity and wealth, which is why the toolkit is so important for today's builders and prospective buyers. Homebuilders are the “boots on the ground” at these communities, so it's very important to include them in the conversation. They can paint a clear picture of the process, from acquisition to the final product. “The challenges that we have in the housing market are serious,” said Keiser. “They are complex. They're systemic. To address them, we need a broad base of knowledge, skills, creativity and resources and that's what we try to bring that together.” The toolkit includes a wide array of partnership examples, including projects by Fortis Homes, O'Dwyer Homes, Cityscape Housing, 3384 Residential and nonprofits partners Atlanta Land Trust, Atlanta Habitat for Humanity and Atlanta Neighborhood Development Partnership. Housing Affordability Summit “I feel like this forum is going to give us an opportunity to hear from several different sides, including the sort of regulatory issues that we're dealing with,” said Crater. “It's just a much clearer picture and a much broader conversation that I think needs to be had more often.” One of the biggest topics expected at the Housing Affordability Summit is how building regulations play into the housing affordability crisis. Wiley points out that federal regulations are mandatory, but many of the state regulations fall directly into the hands of cities and counties. “What I really want to hone in on is the interpretation of the regulation that goes into the scheduling of putting a house on the ground from property under contract to CO,” said Wiley. “What we want to discuss during the housing affordability forum with our elected officials and our counties and city staff members is how we can eliminate that gap.” Georgia serves over 70 municipalities across 10 counties. Within those municipalities, there are many different ideas of what affordable housing really looks like. Wiley discusses the importance of educating legislators on how their policies affect the affordable housing crisis, for better and for worse. “It is at the top list for just about every state legislator in the metro Atlanta area,” said Wiley.

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Amir Baluch, a semi-retired anesthesiologist and founder of Blue Capital Partners, about alternative investment strategies for healthcare providers. Dr. Baluch shares insights on creating passive income streams, the importance of diversification beyond traditional stocks and bonds, and how strategic investments can "buy back time" for busy practitioners. While much of his financial advice offers valuable perspective for healthcare providers looking to reduce clinical hours and focus more on business development, we also provide important context regarding his comments on real estate investment and political policies that may contradict current research on housing affordability and economic impacts. Episode Highlights: The Power of Passive Income: How investing in alternative assets can create freedom in your schedule and reduce dependence on clinical hours Diversification Strategy: Why relying solely on traditional investments like stocks may not provide adequate returns in the coming decade Risk-Adjusted Returns: Understanding how to evaluate investments beyond just the stated return percentage Time vs. Money: Creating a strategic plan to gradually reduce clinical hours through passive income Marketing vs. Sales: The critical differences between creating awareness and converting leads Building a Sellable Practice: The importance of treating your practice like a business that could someday be sold Producer's Notes: Two topics discussed in this episode warrant additional context: Single-Family Home Investments: Institutional investor ownership of single-family homes has grown significantly, with just 32 institutional investors collectively owning 450,000 single-family homes by 2022. Research indicates non-individual investor ownership of single-family rentals increased from 17% in 2001 to 25% in 2021, with projections suggesting institutional investors could control 40% of U.S. single-family rental homes by 2030. This trend is contributing to the housing affordability crisis in many markets. Policy Impacts: Despite Dr. Baluch's enthusiasm about certain administration policies, current evidence suggests recent tariffs, immigration policies, and cuts to housing programs are adversely affecting housing affordability. Housing experts note that deportation plans could severely impact the construction industry, as immigrants make up approximately 30% of the construction labor force at a time when the National Association of Home Builders projects a need for 2.2 million new skilled construction workers.

You just want to put it to work out there." - Dr. Amir Baluch "If you're not measuring it, it doesn't get managed." - Dr. Amir Baluch "I think that's the key. Take your time and energy so that you can work on the business instead of being in it all the time." - Host Bio: Dr. Amir Baluch is a Wall Street Journal and international bestselling author who retired from anesthesiology in his early 40s to focus on transforming wealth management for healthcare professionals.

Erin Sykes and Jordan McKenzie break down the big beat on March New Home Sales and discuss the state of the housing market. Jordan says it shows demand exists when affordability “lines up,” even with interest rates still in the 6.5% range. Erin notes home prices falling, and says bigger homebuilders can absorb some costs and will thus “weather better” amid tariffs and other concerns.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.
