Join us and be inspired in this replay episode from Women Acquiring Assets, featuring Shanta Patton and her insights emphasized on the critical importance of financial education and empowerment, particularly for women navigating the real estate landscape. She advocates for women to take charge of their financial futures by prioritizing homeownership and understanding the wealth-building potential that comes with it. By sharing her personal experiences, including overcoming challenges like foreclosure, Shanta highlights that setbacks can serve as valuable lessons, encouraging women to view their journeys as opportunities for growth rather than obstacles. To foster this empowerment, Shanta encourages women to seek out financial education resources, such as homebuyer education classes, which can provide essential knowledge and skills for making informed decisions. She also emphasizes the importance of building a supportive network, where women can share experiences, resources, and encouragement. By collaborating and uplifting one another, women can create a strong community that fosters financial independence and success. Shanta's call to action is clear: take the first step toward financial empowerment by educating yourself about real estate and homeownership. Engage with local organizations that promote financial literacy and mentorship and actively participate in community initiatives that address basic needs. By doing so, women can not only transform their own lives but also contribute to the broader goal of creating equitable opportunities for future generations.

Do you have a wonderful tenant who you would love to sell your house to, but you know the tenant does not have the down payment?  Even though they make great income, this tenant would likely not qualify for a first-time home loan.  As a landlord, is there a way the tenant can buy the home from you and defer some taxes?  There is a way!  Frank Rohde of Ownify joins me today and explains fractional home ownership for first-time home buyers, all while helping landlords defer paying some taxes.

Your mid-century house, and mine - just like  13 million solid ranches, tidy Levit cottages and charming post and beam homes built across the US between 1945 and 65 - might not strike you as "public housing." But they ARE our country's solution to a housing crisis. Post-war Britain, profoundly affected by the German Blitz and widespread destruction,  embarked on a different path. Their "blitz spirit" of collective sacrifice led to a significant political shift and the creation of a robust welfare state, including a massive program of publicly subsidized housing (often called council housing).  By 1977, nearly half of the British population lived in socially assisted housing, leading to a much less stigmatized view of public housing compared to the US.In Today's Episode You'll Hear:Why the US and the UK took such different post-war housing paths. How these mid-century policy choices are reflected in our current communities. Where we might find opportunities to respond to our current housing crisis in our mid-cenutry neighborhoods.   Get the full show notes with all the trimmings at https://www.midmod-midwest.com/2109.Want us to create your mid-century master plan?

In this eye-opening episode of the Rent Perfect Podcast, host David Pickron flips the script—literally—as Scot Aubrey hijacks the mic to interview David about his first-hand experience renting by the room.  What started as a way to improve cash flow on two midterm rental condos turned into a real-world experiment full of lessons on communal living, fair housing considerations, roommate dynamics, and landlord headaches. From demanding tenants to surprise wins, David shares the challenges, red flags, and unexpected wins of diving into the rent-by-room model in today's shifting rental market.

For the first time as a host combination, Ben, Dan, and Cameron sit down to discuss the most controversial topics in personal finance. We begin with identity and how it informs decision-making. Then, we revisit the renting versus buying debate, why this remains a highly controversial topic, the ins and outs of income investing, and understating the fervor of dividend investing. We also unpack FIRE as a branch of self-help; how it informs happiness; and how personality influences one's approach to the FIRE principle. To end, we closely examine Bill Bengen's 4% rule, and the Aftershow encourages us to maintain high podcasting standards while revealing what you can look forward to in our latest Rational Reminder t-shirt release.    Key Points From This Episode:   (0:01:25) Cameron's positive LinkedIn experience regarding insurance.  (0:08:10) How identity informs decision-making.  (0:15:24) Why renting versus buying a home remains a controversial topic.  (0:27:50) Income investing, covered calls, and the fervor of dividend investing.

In this impassioned monologue, the host breaks down how both Republican and Democrat lawmakers have quietly destroyed the American Dream—homeownership. With personal anecdotes and hard data, she reveals the devastating impact of inflation, sky-high mortgage rates, and reckless government spending. From the median homebuyer age skyrocketing to 56, to housing developments turning into rentals, this is a brutal exposé on how Congress—through printing money and fueling a national debt crisis—is robbing the middle class blind. Plus, a rare legal win allowing federal engineers to investigate trillions in shady payments adds a glimmer of hope. But is it too late to fix a system turning into a kleptocracy?

In this engaging conversation, Stephen S. interviews Sharon Butler, a seasoned real estate expert who has helped over 16,000 people get their real estate licenses.

In this episode, we unpack the biggest shifts shaking up the real estate world right now. Why are mortgage rates continuing to climb—and what does it mean for buyers and sellers in 2025? We also dive into the buzz around Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae: is the federal conservatorship era finally ending, and what could it mean for lending standards? Plus, a surprising stat: the median age of homebuyers has jumped to 56. What's behind this dramatic shift, and what does it say about generational access to homeownership? We break down why Millennials and Gen Z do want to buy homes—but face steep affordability barriers. Lastly, we look at how Zillow's new listing access standards might streamline the buyer experience but create headaches for realtors. Tune in for insights, market context, and what you need to know to stay ahead in today's real estate landscape. 

This episode explores the alarming trend of major investors and tech giants like BlackRock and Jeff Bezos-backed Arrived Homes buying up residential properties, outpacing everyday home buyers. It highlights how companies supported by billion-dollar funds and high-speed acquisition models are transforming real estate markets across the US, making it difficult for average families to compete. Matt tells the story of a young couple in Phoenix who lost their dream home to an all-cash offer from an LLC, emphasizing the broader implications of investor-driven buying on housing affordability and community stability. The episode also offers alternative strategies for home buyers to avoid competing with Wall Street by going off market and negotiating directly with sellers. BUT BEFORE THAT, hear the news about the biggest housing shift in 15 years!
