Airbnb Boom or Bust, Midterm Market Shifts & What a Recession Really Means for Homebuyers In this episode of the Real Estate Education Podcast, Erin and James dive into short-term rental trends, the surprising psychology of recession-era homebuyers, and why your lifestyle (not the market) might be the smartest guide for when to buy.

This Flashback Friday is from episode 283 published last October 26, 2012.  Between 1980 and 2000, the wealth of our nation grew enormously. Interest rates dropped, dot com businesses grew, and then the housing market was rocketing. We then went into a tricky period where overall net worth grew a bit until the dot com crash; the middle class was sustained to some degree by the housing boom, and then dropped sharply with the housing crash. Dr. H. Woody Brock, President and Founder of Strategic Economic Decisions and author of American Gridlock, joins Jason Hartman for an in-depth explanation of the financial health of our nation across social classes. Dr. Brock discusses the nation overall and then breaks it down into the rich, the middle class, and the poor. The distribution of wealth have left the poor worse off and the rich very well off, as well as shrinking the middle class, but as Dr. Brock explains, looking at the distribution of consumption, the poor and middle classes are in a better position than when looking at the distribution of income. Dr. Brock also expounds on QE3, the Federal Reserve actions, bank reserves, de-leveraging, and more. He wraps up on the subject of his book, American Gridlock: Why the Right and Left are Both Wrong. Founder of Strategic Economic Decisions (SED), Inc., Dr. Horace “Woody” Brock specializes in applications of the modern Economics of Uncertainty (originally developed and championed by Kenneth J. Arrow of Stanford University) to forecasting and risk assessment in the international economy and its asset markets. Holder of five academic degrees, Dr. Brock earned his B.A., M.B.A., and M.S. (mathematics) from Harvard University, and his M.A. and Ph.D. from Princeton University (mathematical economics and political philosophy). He was elected an Andrew Mellon Foundation Bicentennial Fellow of the Aspen Institute in 1976. Dr. Brock studied under Kenneth J. Arrow, Professor of Economics, and John C. Harsanyi, Professor of Economics, University of California, Berkeley, both winners of the Nobel Prize in Economics. Dr. Brock founded SED in 1985, and in doing so was sponsored by Fidelity, GE Capital, IBM Pension Fund, and twenty other institutions looking for a much deeper level of analysis of interest rates and the economy. In its research, SED has focused on apprehending ongoing structural changes in the economy and markets to help clients avoid the pitfalls of illegitimately extrapolating the past into the future. In this regard, Dr. Brock has worked closely with Professor Mordecai Kurz of Stanford University in developing the new theory of Rational Beliefs that is now replacing the classical theory of “Efficient Markets”. This new theory explains for the first time the way in which history rhymes but does not repeat itself.     Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

This Flashback Friday is from episode 337, published last September 6, 2013. Doug Brunt is the former CEO of Authentium and author of, "GHOSTS OF MANHATTAN." In his new book, he transports readers back to the extravagant times before Bear Stearns collapsed, exposing a culture with boundless bonuses, where the company expense account was routinely used for bar tabs, visits to strip clubs, and worse. He even throws in some comical stories and describes some of them. Brunt offers a withering view of life on Wall Street from the perspective of an unhappy insider, run-down by the corrosive lifestyle which is jeopardizing his marriage, who is too hooked on the money to find a way out.  Brunt is married to FOX News anchor Megyn Kelly, who has helped him with his books. Brunt describes their relationship and why he gave up a lucrative career as an Internet security entrepreneur.

We're peeling back the layers of home inspections, from red flags and repair requests to how inspections can make or break a deal. Whether you're buying, selling or just curious about what's behind the walls, this episode is packed with insights. Joe Graziano, a REALTOR® with the DeBartoli Real Estate Group in Las Vegas, shares how buyers can navigate inspection reports and negotiate repairs. Matt Cook, director of business development at HomeTeam Inspection Service, explains what's covered in a home inspection, what's not and how to separate real red flags from cosmetic issues. Bob Albrecht, a HomeVestors® franchise owner in Chicago, talks about transforming 2024's Ugliest House of the Year into a showstopper.

Jason talks about the increase in customs revenue under Trump's policies, highlighting a significant rise from $4 billion in 2015 to $22.3 billion, though he noted it would not solve government debt issues. He predicted a likely decrease in interest rates due to the disappearance of the inflation threat, which could lead to a surge in home buyers, potentially wiping out current inventory if rates drop by half a percent. Jason emphasized the importance of focusing on fundamentals and staying in the market long-term for success, even during a "boring" time in real estate with moderate appreciation and flat rents. He also mentioned opportunities in note investing for high returns and encouraged listeners to explore this option. Then Jason and Paul Moore of  WellingsCapital.com discuss the concept of "boring investors" who focus on long-term, passive investing strategies that prioritize consistent returns and personal fulfillment over speculative trading and quick profits. They explore how successful investors like Warren Buffett demonstrate the benefits of careful, methodical investing through steady growth and avoidance of emotional decision-making, while emphasizing the importance of diversification within proven asset classes like real estate. They conclude with reflections on legacy investing and social impact, highlighting the value of disciplined, boring investment approaches that prioritize long-term happiness and meaningful contributions to society.

This Flashback Friday is from episode 257 published last May 1, 2012. Jason Hartman is joined on this episode by Greg Farrell, author of Crash of the Titans: Greed, Hubris, The Fall of Merrill Lynch, and the Near Collapse of Bank of America, for a discussion of the economic crash and the resulting bailouts, as well as some of the inside dealings with some of the major banks, such as the buyouts by Bank of America. Greg explains how these banks that participated in the buyouts grossly underestimated the depth of problems in their own banks and in those they acquired. Greg relates his research on Merrill Lynch's attempt in the 1980s to become more like Goldman Sachs and other Wall Street banks, which was to their detriment because they lacked the expertise for such business practices, and became involved in and in the middle of many of the scandals of the late ‘80s and early ‘90s. Like CitiGroup, they were in over their head. Jason and Greg discuss Wall Street in general and then specific financial groups regarding the recklessness and risky businesses, funds, etc, that they entertained to give the impression of higher rates of returns. As the plot unfolded, large bonuses to CEOs and high-producing brokers came into play, which encouraged an all or nothing attitude toward the company and fostered a “me” attitude versus long-term stability of the company. Greg also talks about what he calls the “Charlotte Mafia,” the clash of company cultures. Greg Farrell is a correspondent for the Financial Times. In January 2009, he broke the news that Merrill Lynch had paid out its 2008 bonuses a month ahead of schedule, in December, even though Merrill was in the process of losing $28 billion for the year, and Bank of America needed an extra $20 billion in taxpayer funds to complete its acquisition of the firm. That story sparked an investigation by New York attorney general Andrew Cuomo.     Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Jason introduces Home Equity Investments (HEI), a growing industry where companies buy a portion of homeowners' equity, awaiting a future liquidity event like a sale or refinance, without requiring monthly payments. Hartman views this as a significant indicator of institutional investors' bullish outlook on residential real estate, similar to "build-to-rent" trends. He emphasizes that despite market fluctuations, real estate remains a long-term value investment. Hartman is launching his own HEI company and seeks experienced mortgage or HEI professionals to collaborate. Also, join our FREE monthly real estate masterclasses for investors EVERY SECOND WEDNESDAY of the month at  JasonHartman.com/Wednesday . Jason welcomes Michael Gifford of Spilitero.com.

The most powerful change comes from combining financial technology with a genuine desire to help people succeed—especially first-time buyers who often lack guidance and support.Timothy Griggs, CEO and Founder of Kribsavup, knows firsthand how heartbreaking it can be to deliver a mortgage denial to someone whose only mistake was not understanding the process. As Timothy explained in this episode, “They have a vision for their family. They have a good heart, but they have no idea about the steps to take to prepare for homeownership… That just hurts my heart and me wanting to help them prepare for homeownership.”That pain point inspired Timothy to create Kribsavup—a social fintech app designed to help users understand their finances, monitor their credit, and get ready for the mortgage process well before applying. Kribsavup links accounts, provides real-time credit information, and enables users to invite friends and family members to join them on the journey. “You can save together. You can improve your finances together. We're not sharing data. We're very sensitive about that. But the users can actually interact with each other,” Timothy shared.The app also brings in gamification and AI features to make the process less daunting and more engaging. Timothy described how users can compete with an AI character, Stuart, in a race to better credit and stronger finances. This approach aims to make financial health not just accessible but enjoyable, especially for young people and those unfamiliar with the complexities of buying a home.Kribsavup is currently available in app stores, and Timothy is inviting the crowd to participate directly in the company's growth through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Netcapital. “We are seeking to get help by going to our audience and investors to come on board to see our vision and to help us get this out to market, to get Kribsavup out to the market, get it out to the users, get it into our communities to be able to help users to be able to improve the process of home ownership,” Timothy said.By blending technology, community, and a clear mission, Kribsavup stands out as a tool designed not just to help people buy homes, but to transform lives and build a stronger path toward financial wellness. The opportunity to invest alongside the Kribsavup team makes this an especially compelling story for anyone who believes in the power of impact crowdfunding to change the world.tl;dr:Timothy Griggs shares how Kribsavup helps first-time homebuyers prepare for mortgage success.The app offers gamification, real-time credit info, and community support for financial wellness.Kribsavup is raising capital through regulated investment crowdfunding on Netcapital.Timothy's superpower is his faith-driven passion to help others achieve homeownership.Personal stories highlight the impact of encouragement, guidance, and community support in reaching financial goals.How to Develop Faith-Driven Passion As a SuperpowerTimothy's superpower is an unwavering faith and deep passion to help others achieve homeownership and financial security. As Timothy described, “It's my superpower, my faith, my passion to see this get into the hands of people that really need it… It's a passion to be able to help users in our communities to be able to purchase a home.” His drive comes from seeing the dream of homeownership diminish for younger generations and wanting to keep that hope alive, making the process engaging and accessible for all.One story Timothy shared illustrates his superpower in action. A longtime friend who owned a beauty salon wanted to buy a home but didn't realize her business tax filings made her ineligible for a loan. Timothy patiently counseled her, laying out specific steps she would need to take to qualify. She followed his advice, and a year later, Timothy was able to help her secure a home for her family. The reward of seeing her succeed—and knowing he played a part—motivated him to help many others with similar challenges, always providing encouragement and guidance through the process.Timothy's suggestions for developing faith-driven passion as a personal strength include:Encourage others, especially younger generations, to believe homeownership is possibleLead with faith and keep moving forward despite setbacksSeek out people and groups who share your mission to help othersProvide clear, actionable steps for those you mentor or supportCelebrate the successes of those you help to keep your own passion aliveBy following Timothy's example and advice, you can make faith-driven passion a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

This Flashback Friday is from episode 302, published last February 25, 2013. Jason Hartman is joined on this episode by Steve Forbes, the editor in chief of Forbes Media, to propose and attempt to answer the question:  Why does government get bigger and bigger when we know it doesn't work well? Mr. Forbes states that history proves free markets work for the people, while big and over-reaching government is about meeting its own needs. In his book, Freedom Manifesto: Why Free Markets Are Moral and Big Government Isn't, coauthored with Elizabeth Ames, the authors delve into historic events and statistics, showing that in every instance, big government promotes favoritism, stifles economic growth, dumbs down education, and creates an atmosphere of “rigidity and scarcity.” At the same time, it opens the door to corruption. Mr. Forbes discusses the benefits of economic freedom, which promotes creativity and growth.

Today Jason covers a few key real estate investing strategies. He emphasizes the importance of leveraging properties with high loan balances for inflation-induced debt destruction and better insurance claim handling. He advises against paying off mortgages, highlighting tax benefits and the "refi till you die" plan. He introduces the concept of a "perpetual motion machine" in real estate, using cash flow from existing properties to acquire more, similar to a leveraged buyout and the "flywheel" effect. He stresses persistence despite challenges, sharing his early struggles and the long-term benefits of income property investing. Then Jason and Les Rubin discuss the critical issues of entitlements, government size, and the tax code in relation to US economic stability. They explore the potential of converting Social Security to private accounts and the challenges of reforming the current entitlement programs, acknowledging the need for public education and a shift in attitude. Lastly, they sounded the alarm about the dangerous economic path the country is on, warning of the potential collapse of the economy and the future consequences for future generations.
