Are first-home buyers really behind Australia's rising property prices? In this episode, we dig into the data, government schemes, and hidden advantages that are giving first-time buyers a huge edge over investors and second-home buyers. From tiny deposits and no stamp duty to tax perks, we break down why first-timers are dominating the market right now and why politicians and media often get the story wrong. If you want to understand the real forces driving Australia's housing market, this episode is your guide to who's really shaping property prices today.
High interest rates and post-COVID inflation have pushed the average age of first-time homebuyers to 40, leaving millions of Americans locked out of the market. Indiana Republican Congressman Marlin Stutzman joins us to discuss bipartisan efforts to improve the housing market, including his Streamlining Rural Housing Act—which aims to lower costs by cutting through conflicting federal red tape.Later, Oklahoma Republican Senator James Lankford joins us to discuss whether Congress can finally rein in federal waste. This follows the release of his latest "Federal Fumbles" report, which highlights hundreds of billions of dollars lost to fraud and improper payments in programs like Medicare and SNAP.

Was the 2008 Housing Crisis Misdiagnosed? Kevin Erdmann on Supply, Policy, and the Myths We Still BelieveYou don't have to agree with every conclusion—but you do need to understand the argument.What if the biggest mistake of the 2008 financial crisis wasn't reckless lending or mass overbuilding—but a fundamental misdiagnosis of the problem itself?In this episode, we speak with Kevin Erdmann, senior scholar at the Mercatus Center and author of Shut Out, whose research challenges the mainstream narrative of the Great Financial Crisis.___________________________________________________Subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder for deep, non-consensus conversations on housing, real estate, policy, capital markets, and much more!Like, comment, and share if this episode challenges your assumptions.____________________________________________________Erdmann argues that the U.S. did not suffer from a nationwide housing oversupply in the 2000s. Instead, America entered the crisis with too few homes in the places people most wanted to live—and policymakers responded to the crash by tightening credit and regulation in ways that deepened the downturn and locked in today's housing shortages.This is a calm, data-driven conversation—not a hot take—about how housing supply, migration, zoning, and financial policy interacted in ways we still misunderstand.Topics discussed:Why Erdmann believes the U.S. never had a classic national housing bubbleThe difference between “closed-access” cities (NYC, SF, LA) and “contagion” cities (Phoenix, Florida markets)How migration and regional price signals distorted national narrativesWhy post-2008 credit tightening and regulation worsened the recessionWhat policymakers got wrong about housing risk and financial stabilityHow zoning laws and NIMBYism turned housing scarcity into a long-term crisisWhether today's housing market resembles 2006–2007—or something entirely differentWho bore the real costs of housing shortages—and who benefitedWhat investors, homebuyers, and policymakers are still misunderstanding todayWhy this matters nowWith housing affordability stretched, supply constrained, and rates reshaping demand, Erdmann's framework offers a critical lens for understanding:Why prices remain highWhy building hasn't kept up with demandWhy repeating old policy assumptions could make today's crisis worseYou don't have to agree with every conclusion—but you do need to understand the argument.Subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder for deep, non-consensus conversations on housing, real estate, policy, capital markets, and much more!Like, comment, and share if this episode challenges your assumptions.___________________________________________________Please subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder using the two links below, and don't be shy about sharing the podcast with your friends.Subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder on YouTube here: / @doyoueverwonder943 Subscribe on your favorite streaming platform here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1862986 _______________________________________________Hallmark Abstract Service...You Buy Real Estate, We Protect It!Questions about the podcast, NY title insurance, or the RE transaction process?

In the United States, the housing crisis can feel like an unsolvable puzzle. We talk of housing as something we navigate alone — a commodity we rent or buy, subject to the whims of a volatile market.But in Thailand, they've pioneered a different model. A government program called Baan Mankong, or “secure housing,” treats shelter as a collective right — and proves that the U.S.'s individualist framework isn't the only way.As a Berkeley Ph.D. student in 2014, Hayden Shelby wanted to know if a similar strategy could work in the U.S. In order to decipher the complex policy, she enrolled in advanced Thai in the Department of Southeast Asian studies.Now a leading expert on the program in the U.S., Shelby says speaking Thai on the ground with experts and community members was invaluable.“People open up when they know you've made this really deep and difficult investment in learning their language,” she says. “It breaks down that expert/non-expert barrier.”In this episode of Berkeley Voices, we look at how acquiring a new language can shift our worldview, and what happens when we stop asking what we can do for other countries and start asking what we can learn from them.This is the fourth episode of our latest season, featuring UC Berkeley scholars working on life-changing research — and the people whose lives are changed by it.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on UC Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts/berkeley-voices).Music by Blue Dot Sessions.Photo courtesy of Hayden Shelby.

Yesterday, POWER convened a housing affordability assembly at Mother Bethel A.M.E. The sanctuary was full—overflowing, really—with more than 1,000 people from across Philadelphia, representing churches, faith communities, and concerned residents gathered under one shared anxiety: a city in the grip of a housing crisis.Rising rents. Shrinking housing stock. A looming reduction in federal funding as Washington signals cuts to already strained city budgets. The moment demanded boldness.Several elected officials were present. Isaiah Thomas attended, along with one at-large City Council member and a representative for a district council member, all there to listen, respond, and engage. State Senator Sharif Street also attended, though he did not sit on the panel.And yet—despite the size of the crowd and the urgency of the issue—the conference, in my estimation, offered no real solutions. What we heard instead were recycled ideas, familiar refrains, and policy comfort food that no longer nourishes a city this hungry.First, there was the call for nonprofits—particularly large institutions like the University of Pennsylvania—to do more, or to pay taxes. But nonprofits are already doing a great deal. They employ a significant portion of the city's workforce—workers who pay taxes, rent homes, and sustain the local economy. To suggest nonprofits simply “do more” ignores both their existing contributions and the structural limits of that sector.Second, a council member suggested taxing billionaires more. This has become a political cliché—emotionally satisfying, rhetorically popular, and practically unproductive. In reality, such policies often accelerate capital flight, pushing wealth—and investment—out of the city. At the same time, Philadelphia maintains a large social welfare population. That contradiction cannot be ignored. How do we justify ever-higher taxes on a shrinking base while relying on redistribution without first expanding the economic pie?If anything, the city should be working with billionaires and high-net-worth investors—creating incentives, credits, and opportunities for them to invest more deeply in Philadelphia. The city lacks a robust ecosystem of lucrative business investment. Outside of Comcast (Xfinity), Philadelphia has very few major corporations anchoring its economy. That should concern us.Third, Philadelphia is in direct competition with Delaware, a neighboring state that offers business-friendly tax structures and aggressive incentives. Businesses notice this. Investors notice this. Capital moves accordingly. If Philadelphia wants to win, it must compete—by reducing taxes, waiving fees, and offering meaningful credits to attract for-profit businesses and corporations. That is how cities grow revenue sustainably, not by squeezing the same sources harder.Finally, one of the most striking revelations was that the city reportedly has over one billion dollars sitting in reserve. Why not deploy financial expertise to grow that money? Why not invest a portion of it in high-yield instruments—government bonds, fixed annuities, or other secure investment vehicles—to generate returns that can fund housing initiatives long-term? Cities invest. Universities invest. Pension funds invest. Why shouldn't Philadelphia?Instead, the meeting largely circled back to asking those already doing much to do even more, while calling for new policies and bills that repeat old thinking. There were no out-of-the-box ideas, no structural economic reimagining, no serious engagement with how capital is created, attracted, and sustained.Philadelphia does not have a housing problem alone—it has an investment problem. Until we are willing to confront that honestly, assemblies will remain full, speeches will remain passionate, and solutions will remain painfully absent.The crisis deserves better. The people deserve better. And the city—this city of grit, history, and possibility—can do better, if it dares to think differently.
Hour 3 of the Monday Bob Rose Show, on the challenges facing new homeowners after years of limited housing supply.

In this episode of the Loan Officer Podcast, hosts Dustin Owen and Laura Zuluaga, joined by producer Karina, kick things off with a lively recap of Laura's recent trip to a New England Patriots playoff game. Laura shares her firsthand experience of the electrifying atmosphere at the stadium, from the pre-game tailgating festivities to the nail-biting moments on the field, while Dustin and Karina chime in with playful banter and questions about her favorite highlights and the fan culture she witnessed. After some lighthearted conversation, the hosts transition to the main focus of the episode: answering a series of insightful listener questions related to real estate and mortgages. They dive into the feasibility and potential implications of 50-year mortgages, discussing how such long-term loans could affect monthly payments, total interest paid, and overall home affordability. The conversation then shifts to creative ways buyers might fund a home purchase, including the pros, cons, and legal considerations of tapping into retirement accounts like 401(k)s or education savings plans such as 529s. Dustin and Laura break down the tax implications, penalties, and strategic scenarios where these options might make sense. The hosts also tackle the growing influence of institutional investors in the housing market, examining how large-scale property purchases by investment firms can drive up prices, reduce inventory for individual buyers, and impact neighborhood dynamics. They provide context on recent trends and share their perspectives on what this means for first-time homebuyers and the broader market. In response to ongoing debates about housing affordability, Dustin and Laura analyze recent proposals aimed at lowering mortgage rates, such as government interventions or special loan programs. However, they emphasize that these measures are only part of the solution, arguing that the real key to making homes more affordable lies in increasing the overall housing supply. They discuss the challenges and opportunities involved in building more homes, including zoning laws, construction costs, and policy changes that could encourage development. As the episode draws to a close, the team shares exciting announcements about upcoming industry events, educational workshops, and networking opportunities for listeners. They also tease details about an exclusive listener cruise, inviting fans of the show to join them for a unique chance to connect, learn, and have fun together on the open seas.

Corey Dion Lewis sits down with Dr. Margot Kushel, a practicing general internist with over 30 years of experience at San Francisco General Hospital and Director of the UCSF Benioff Homelessness and Housing Initiative, to explore why homelessness is fundamentally a housing problem—not a healthcare problem—and what this means for medical professionals and communities.Dr. Kushel shares compelling insights from her three decades of clinical practice and research, revealing how the lack of affordable housing creates impossible situations for healthcare providers trying to treat patients experiencing homelessness. From managing diabetes in a tent to storing insulin without refrigeration, she illustrates why "there is no medicine as powerful as housing."What You'll Learn:Why regions with high homelessness rates are defined by housing affordability, not mental health prevalenceHow structural racism and redlining created the current crisis, with Black Americans 4-5 times overrepresented in homeless populationsThe stark reality: only 36 affordable housing units exist for every 100 extremely low-income households in AmericaWhy Housing First policies work better than Treatment First approaches, backed by evidence from veteran homelessness reductionThe hidden homeless population: workers living in cars, college students couch-surfing, and older adults losing housing for the first timeHow the politicization of Housing First policies threatens progress and patient outcomesPractical ways healthcare providers can advocate for housing as a health interventionKey Clinical Insights:Dr. Kushel explains why treating chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and mental health disorders becomes nearly impossible when patients lack stable housing. She shares real stories from her practice, including a 63-year-old patient who hadn't eaten in four days while fighting eviction, and discusses how readmission penalties unfairly penalize hospitals serving homeless populations.The Evidence for Housing First:Learn about the dramatic 85% housing retention rate of Housing First approaches compared to 5-10% success rates of traditional Treatment First models, and why the George W. Bush administration adopted this evidence-based policy. Dr. Kushel also shares findings from California's comprehensive statewide homelessness study, debunking myths about people traveling from other states.For Medical Professionals:This episode is essential listening for physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, medical students, residents, community health workers, social workers, case managers, and anyone in healthcare who treats patients experiencing housing instability. Dr. Kushel provides a framework for understanding how to advocate beyond the clinic walls.About Dr. Margot Kushel:Dr. Kushel is a physician and researcher who has dedicated her career to understanding and ending homelessness. She directs the UCSF Benioff Homelessness and Housing Initiative and the Action Research Center for Health at the University of California, San Francisco. Her research informs policy at local, state, and federal levels.Resources Mentioned:UCSF Benioff Homelessness Initiative: homelessness.ucsf.eduCalifornia Statewide Study of People Experiencing Homelessness"There Is No Place" by Brian GoldstoneEpisode Takeaway: "There is no medicine as powerful as housing.

In today's episode, Tom sits down with Morgan Housel, bestselling author and expert on the psychology of money, for a candid and eye-opening discussion about the housing crisis and the far-reaching consequences it has on our society. Together, they dig deep into how housing affordability is at the heart of issues like declining marriage rates, mental health struggles, fertility crises, and even substance abuse. You'll hear Morgan lay out why buying a home is more than a financial milestone—it's a fundamental step into adulthood, community, and stability. Tom and Morgan also explore the cyclical nature of inequality throughout history, the role of inflation and debt in causing economic divides, and why current solutions to the housing shortage miss the mark. They challenge popular policies and talk about the real reasons why affordable homes are scarce—touching on everything from NIMBYism to regulatory capture—and what might need to change if we want to reverse trends that threaten generational prosperity. Whether you're worried about the future of the economy, curious about how political cycles influence policy, or just want practical advice for navigating today's financial uncertainty, this episode offers both sobering insights and a dose of hope. If you're ready for a thorough, nuanced conversation that connects headlines to everyday life, keep listening—this one's for you. What's up, everybody? It's Tom Bilyeu here: If you want my help...

Alex interviews Sabine Benoit of the Consumer Choice Center on Canada's housing crisis. Sabine argues the main causes are chronic undersupply plus policy barriers: zoning that blocks “missing middle” density, long approval timelines/red tape, and high development fees that get passed to buyers. They also cover why immigration is often scapegoated despite being only part of the story, and why governments should focus on enabling private building (and targeted skilled-trades immigration) rather than new government developer programs.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to West Rand Mayor William Mathafeng Matsheke about the fear, trauma and ongoing uncertainty facing residents of Sporong following weeks of violence linked to illegal mining gangs, commonly known as zama zamas. Families were forced to flee their homes amid gunfire, threats and intimidation, raising serious concerns about public safety and the ability of authorities to protect vulnerable communities. While a 24-hour police presence and a mobile police station have brought a measure of calm, many residents remain anxious about whether the stability will hold. The conversation explores what is being done to ensure lasting safety, support displaced families, restore trust in local governance, and address the root causes of illegal mining, including housing, enforcement, and economic pressures driving the crisis. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

Chuck Rocha returns from his gorilla-tracking adventure in Rwanda (complete with wild stories and a new honorary tribal chief title) to dive deep with Mike Madrid into why Latino voters are uniquely positioned to reshape American politics.In this episode, Mike breaks down the stunning data showing that while other voters remain locked in partisan camps with only 2-3% swings, working-class Latinos are swinging 11-15% between elections—making them the only true swing voting bloc left in America. From kicking out Republicans across the country in 2025 to determining crucial Texas House races in March of this year, Mike and Chuck explore why Latino voters' willingness to hold politicians accountable regardless of party might be the most rational response in an otherwise polarized system.Plus: reflections on faith and politics in Latino communities, the inside story of the Jasmine Crockett-Colin Allred Senate race dynamics, and why this generational transformation will define American politics through 2050. And yes, Chuck shares what it's really like to sit face-to-face with silverback gorillas (spoiler: there's no glass between you).-Recorded: January 14, 2026-Referenced in the episode:Check out Senator Ruben Gallego's 'Path Home' housing affordability plan video: https://x.com/SenRubenGallego/status/2011451211225166201'Can James Talarico Reclaim Christianity for the Left?' form the Ezra Klein podcast: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/opinion/ezra-klein-podcast-james-talarico.html-Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more episodes of The Latino Vote Podcast!

Psilocybin is neurologically proven to unwire years of bad habits, enhancing focus, emotional control, and mental clarity. Society has intentionally hidden the truth about how this powerful compound can optimize your mind and body, but that changes now. In episode 847 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with Adam Schell, a former cannabis industry insider who now dedicates his life to psilocybin. Adam shares his incredible story, from a life altering psychedelic experience to losing millions and rebuilding.
