Real Estate Syndication Investment Overview Michael and Stewart explored the world of real estate syndication and why it has become a practical alternative to traditional property ownership. They explained how 25 to 50 investors can pool their capital to purchase larger properties, giving individuals access to substantial real estate deals without managing the property themselves. Stewart pointed out that although real estate is generally less liquid than stocks, the future looks promising as tokenization grows and could make private deals more accessible within the next few years. Understanding Investment Risks and Rewards Michael and Stewart broke down the complexities of alternative investments, especially in areas like cryptocurrency and innovative financial models. Stewart explained SEC rules for accredited investors and shared that typical syndicate minimums start at $50,000, with $25,000 possible for new investor relationships. They highlighted the potential for recurring cash flow, attractive tax advantages, and average annual returns around 13.5 percent, with a minimum expected return of 6.5 percent in the first year. Real Estate Tax Depreciation Benefits The conversation shifted into tax strategy, where Stewart explained how depreciation and bonus depreciation can significantly impact an investor's bottom line. He described cost recovery, the ability to deduct the cost of an asset over time, and how current tax laws allow for 100 percent bonus depreciation on certain types of personal property. Michael and Stewart emphasized that real estate offers unique tax opportunities through cost segregation, allowing investors to classify a large portion of a property's cost as personal property and deduct it in the first year. Real Estate Investment Tax Benefits and Market Outlook Michael and Stewart emphasized the importance of solid research and guidance from qualified financial professionals when evaluating real estate investments. They discussed how the U.S. economy is heavily tied to real estate and how government incentives often support development. Stewart shared his outlook on the housing market, predicting potential movement in the first half of next year if interest rates ease and new policies, such as down payment support or extended mortgage terms, are introduced. Housing Market and Investment Insights Wrapping up, Michael and Stewart discussed the importance of a balanced housing ecosystem that supports both home ownership and rental opportunities. Stewart encouraged listeners to explore more about their projects at harvardGrace.com and offered a free digital copy of his latest book to help aspiring investors deepen their understanding of real estate investing. Stewart O. Heath, CPA Stewart is the Founder and CEO of Harvard Grace Capital, a private equity real estate investment firm that helps individuals and business owners build wealth faster through hands-off real estate investing that generates passive income, reduces risk, and maximizes tax efficiencies.  Backed by a combined 150+ years of entrepreneurial and CRE experience, Stewart and the Harvard Grace Capital team have raised millions of dollars via syndications, and consistently deliver tax-advantaged 18%+ ROI on well-located commercial real estate assets (office, retail, medical, self-storage, etc.) between Nashville, Tennessee and Birmingham , Alabama.  Harvard Grace Capital stands out in a crowded market because of its focus on stabilized  commercial real estate, which cash flows from day one – a refreshing contrast to high-risk, speculative ventures. Stewart and his team prioritize consistency and resilience in an economy that feels increasingly unpredictable, often reciting their motto: “boring is beautiful.” A Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Stewart brings over 40 years of business experience to the real estate sector. His background spans multifamily and commercial development, construction, management, and investing, but it's his CPA-level financial rigor that gives him an edge in deal analysis and risk mitigation. Stewart's journey has been deeply shaped by his comeback after losing everything in the 2008 financial crisis. Rather than retreating, he rebuilt smarter. He learned how to structure real estate portfolios that provide tax-optimized long-term, reliable returns. That experience now fuels his mission: to help investors navigate uncertain markets with investments that perform through all cycles and beat inflation.

2026 is finally here! And if you can still read this sentence without seeing double, you've made it!  But this year, things are going to be a little… different. We usually talk about the best places or strategies for buying rentals, but we're going on a bit of a detour to start the year by discussing our real estate resolutions, all of which will actively help us retire early. Want to retire with rentals, too? This is the episode for you, and we're sharing the strategies we're using in 2026 to get there.  Kathy Fettke shares a new way she's optimizing her real estate portfolio, with the goal to increase cash flow by 10% on her current portfolio (not buying more rentals!). Henry takes an opposite approach to most investors, opting not to scale his portfolio and instead doing something much safer. Dave details his “End Game”—the ultimate real estate portfolio for early retirement.  You can copy these experts' strategies in 2026 to retire with rentals, too! In This Episode We Cover How to use AI to optimize your portfolio and find the cash flow blind spots where you're losing potential profits  Stop scaling? Why Henry is making moves to pay off some rentals instead (and whether you should, too) Building your “End Game” portfolio to retire with rentals you actually enjoy owning  The three “buckets” of investing and a sign you've already outgrown yours (it could cost you) Henry and Dave's real goal that has nothing to do with real estate (can you help them out?)

In this New Year's episode of the REconomy Podcast™, Chief Economist Mark Fleming and Deputy Chief Economist Odeta Kushi offer their “resolutions” for the 2026 housing market. From mortgage rates that may remain above 6 percent to gradual improvements in affordability, inventory, and sales activity, 2026 resolves to trend toward normalization amid a still-solid macroeconomic landscape.

Jenna Stauffer's big idea for 2026 real estate is strong wage growth that will outpace price growth, creating more affordable housing. She discusses the factors besides pricing that are keeping people out of the market, including taxes and other fees. The median age of first-time buyers jumping to 40 means we are in a completely different environment, and she notes that Gen Z is upset about the lag and are finding untraditional methods to enter the market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Where is buyer demand showing up in 2025? According to a new report from Zillow, the hottest housing markets this year aren't the usual coastal or Sun Belt favorites — they're affordable Midwestern cities. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, Kathy Fettke breaks down Zillow's list of the most popular housing markets of 2025, led by Rockford, Illinois. We look at why buyers are flocking to lower-priced markets with strong job access, fast-moving inventory, and growing out-of-state interest. You'll also hear which cities are topping Zillow's rankings across categories — from large metros and small towns to vacation destinations, college towns, and retirement markets — and what these shifts signal for real estate investors.

It's another holiday-shortened trading week, though Kevin Green points to several undercurrents keeping markets active. He talks about Monday's pending home sales report and how it indicates a "thawing" housing market. On the international front, talks between the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia draw crude oil prices and global volatility higher. KG also tackles the metal trade and the danger of a long-term gold and silver downtrend. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Odeta Kushi and Orphe Divounguy analyze the current U.S. housing market, noting that affordability is at its best level in three years. They discuss how wage growth is outpacing housing price growth, contributing to modest improvements in housing affordability.

As we head into 2026, population is no longer just another economic talking point — it has become one of the single most powerful forces reshaping Canadian real estate & the economy. For the first time in modern history, Canada's population is shrinking, and the effects are immediate and profound. Ontario and British Columbia — the country's largest and most expensive markets — are now posting negative annual population growth for the first time ever. After years of record inflows, the pendulum has swung sharply in the opposite direction. Non-permanent residents are leaving in record numbers, permanent residents are quietly exiting the country at near-historic highs, and government targets suggest this outflow may continue for the next two years. The last time Canada experienced a demographic shock, it was driven by rapid population acceleration — and it rewrote housing dynamics overnight. Now we are watching the same type of historic shift, only in reverse, and the consequences are every bit as significant.Those consequences are already showing up in the housing market. Canada is delivering the largest volume of purpose-built rental construction in history at the exact moment demand is softening. Rental inventory is surging, vacancy rates are climbing, incentives are returning, and the national market is clearly moving toward cheaper, more competitive rents. That may temporarily make renting feel like the smarter financial move, but history is unequivocal: the long-term wealth gap between renters and owners remains enormous, and demographic shifts don't change that reality. Nowhere is this more evident than in Toronto, where the condo market has all but stalled — sales have collapsed from record highs to generational lows, new project launches have effectively halted, and completed but unsold units are stacking up at levels never recorded before. It is the clearest example of what happens when the wrong kind of supply finally outruns broad market demand in an economy built on perpetual growth assumptions. Currently, dwellings under construction is running at 500% more than the population growth rate when the historical average is 50%.And yet, the broader economy still sends mixed signals. Mortgage growth has recently ticked up, supported largely by first-time buyers stepping in where investors and move-up purchasers have stepped back. Retail spending shows households remain cautious. Sentiment readings are improving - considerably in the business sector but insolvencies in places like B.C. are quietly hitting new records. At the same time, household net worth is sitting at all-time highs, driven by financial markets that reward those already positioned at the top. 20% of Canadians own 70% of Canadian Assets! Affordability, meanwhile, has “improved” — but only relative to a crisis peak. Even after seven quarters of easing, ownership costs are still near the worst levels Canada has ever seen, and with rates likely holding into 2026, further progress may need to come from unpopular but necessary price declines rather than overall policy relief. In this weeks podcast, we break down this critical demographic turning point — what a shrinking population truly means for housing demand, pricing power, rental markets, developers, mortgage holders, and anyone trying to make a disciplined real estate decision in the year ahead. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

The housing market correction is well underway, but the story looks very different depending on where you invest. Some markets are cooling gently, others are slipping faster, and a few affordability outliers are still holding up. With new Zillow data in hand, Dave breaks down the major regional patterns, why price growth is slowing almost everywhere, and what today's shifts actually mean for investors buying at the end of 2025 and into 2026. He also looks at markets that may be “oversold” despite strong fundamentals, the places where buyers suddenly have serious leverage, and how rents are diverging sharply from home prices in some metros. We'll even take a look at the data to see where corrections may continue. So, where should you buy? If you want killer deals, are these “oversold” markets prime places for rental property investing, or could they fall even further?   In This Episode We Cover Zillow's newest list of best and worst housing markets of 2026  Where buyers have strong leverage and where demand still holds Markets that have strong fundamentals but major concerns from buyers  What rising or falling rents actually signal for investors Will hot, affordable markets keep their flame burning or freeze like the rest of the US?  And So Much More!

This could be the most encouraging sign for the housing market in years. It's the final month of 2025, and the housing market has flipped from this time last year. Real prices are down, mortgage rates are near a percent lower, inventory is stabilizing, and affordability…it's actually improving. But hints at a wave of underwater mortgages are making people nervous. With the number rising, is this the “distress” signal many have been waiting for? We're getting into it all: home price, mortgage rate, and inventory updates, plus a new seller trend that is causing serious confusion, and could be the final nail in the “housing market crash” coffin. With sellers doing what nobody expects, next year could get interesting. More homeowners are falling “underwater” on their mortgages. Is this a 2008 repeat or just a blip on the real estate radar? Some economists are worried about rising delinquencies, but a high-level view of the data could point to an entirely different conclusion. In This Episode We Cover Sellers do what nobody expects, and it's killing the “crash” narrative Underwater mortgages are surging, but are homeowners really in danger? The best news we've had in three years?

In this Christmas Day 2025 episode, Mike and John imagine a world where the Grinch controls the housing market. What happens when everything is hoarded, nothing moves, and joy is considered a bad business model? With playful sarcasm and holiday spirit, this episode pokes fun at greed, control, and short-term thinking while quietly reminding listeners why patience, fairness, and long-term ownership always win in the end.See full article: https://www.unitedstatesrealestateinvestor.com/new-chicago-property-tax-bills-to-crush-homeowners/Check out the Cyber Month 2025 Year-End Sale Now! https://www.unitedstatesrealestateinvestor.com/cybermonth2025/—Ready to kill the rat race?This free ⁠"Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing in 2025" will show you exactly how to start, even if you're broke, busy, or scared to death of losing a dime.It's short.

Redfin just called it. The housing market will “reset” in 2026…or at least it'll be the start of it. Chen Zhao, Redfin's head of economics research, has 11 predictions she and her team have formulated for the 2026 housing market. A long, slow period of progress could be upon us, as buyers get what they've been asking for: better affordability, a more normal market, and the chance to own where there's work.  But what does this really mean? Will mortgage rates fall? Will home prices drop? We're going through each of the 11 predictions with Chen, discussing prices, rates, rents, refinances, transaction volume, and even how AI could become the “matchmaker” for Americans looking for their first or next property.  Make no mistake, this is good news for many, and could be just the start of a cycle that finally puts average Americans in the position to purchase a home. But, for real estate investors and landlords, there could be another big benefit coming in 2026, one that has a direct impact on your cash flow.  In This Episode We Cover Redfin's 2026 housing market predictions (prices, mortgage rates, and more!) The great “reset” that is coming for the housing market (it's already begun) Rent growth returns? Struggling landlords could get some relief next year The best and worst real estate markets that Redfin is forecasting for 2026  The AI effect on real estate and why more buyers are using bots to find homes  And So Much More!

The GoGaddis Real Estate Radio Show with Cleveland (Cleve) Gaddis | Listener Q&A / Real Questions Presented by Modern Traditional Realty Group www.moderntraditionsrealty.com As the 2025 holiday season hits full swing, the dinner table conversation in Metro Atlanta is dominated by three big questions: Can I find a home? Can I afford it? And is it time to stop renting?. In this 12-minute segment of The Go Gaddis Real Estate Radio Show, we move past the noise and look at the actual data. While many have been "waiting for a crash," the Housing Market in late 2025 is telling a different story—one of moderating growth and significant new opportunities for those ready to move. The "Bare Shelves" Myth: Learn why there have been more than one million homes on the market for six straight months—a milestone not seen since 2019. For Atlanta buyers, this means more options and less frantic competition. The Affordability Shift: We break down the latest trends showing that while buying isn't "easy," easing mortgage rates and moderating price growth are finally making monthly payments hundreds of dollars lower than earlier this year. The Rent Vs Buy Identity Question: Why the choice between renting and owning is often an "identity question" rather than a math problem. We discuss whether you are in a season of "optionality" (renting) or "readiness" (buying). Future Projections: Insight into why Fannie Mae experts project home prices will continue to rise at a normal pace through 2029, making "waiting for a drop" a risky financial strategy. If you've hit pause on your home search due to market fatigue, this episode provides the data-backed clarity you need. Whether you are a first-time buyer in Decatur or a seller in Buckhead, we help you align your housing choices with your life's current "identity season". The insights shared on the show reflect the same guidance provided daily by Modern Traditional Realty Group. If you'd like a no-pressure conversation about your home's value, equity position, or the right timing for your next move, visit ModernTraditionalRealtyGroup.com or to connect with Cleve and submit questions for future segments, visit GoGaddisRadio.com.

The Michigan housing market is sending mixed signals right now, and if you're confused, you're not alone. Prices are still rising, inventory is growing, buyer demand is more selective, and sellers are starting to feel pressure — all at the same time. In this Michigan housing market update, I break down what's actually happening across the state heading into 2025 and 2026 using real data from sources like Zillow, Redfin, and the FHFA, combined with what I'm seeing firsthand every single day helping buyers and sellers navigate Michigan real estate. We'll talk about why some homes are sitting while others still spark bidding wars, where buyers have leverage again, why sellers are adjusting expectations, how the “rate lock” effect is shaping inventory, and why Michigan is really a collection of micro-markets behaving very differently across Southeast Michigan, West Michigan, Southwest Michigan, Mid-Michigan, and Northern Michigan. I'm Andrew McManamon, a Michigan Realtor who helps people move to, from, and within the state of Michigan, and I love it — and while this isn't legal or financial advice, it is real-world insight designed to help you make smarter decisions. If you're thinking about buying, selling, or moving to Michigan now or in the future, this breakdown will give you the clarity you need before making a move.

This could be the most encouraging sign for the housing market in years. It's the final month of 2025, and the housing market has flipped from this time last year. Real prices are down, mortgage rates are near a percent lower, inventory is stabilizing, and affordability…it's actually improving. But hints at a wave of underwater mortgages are making people nervous. With the number rising, is this the “distress” signal many have been waiting for? Welcome to our last housing market update of 2025. We're getting into it all: home price, mortgage rate, and inventory updates, plus a new seller trend that is causing serious confusion, and could be the final nail in the “housing market crash” coffin. With sellers doing what nobody expects, next year could get interesting. More homeowners are falling “underwater” on their mortgages. Is this a 2008 repeat or just a blip on the real estate radar? Some economists are worried about rising delinquencies, but a high-level view of the data could point to an entirely different conclusion. In This Episode We Cover Sellers do what nobody expects, and it's killing the “crash” narrative  Underwater mortgages are surging, but are homeowners really in danger?  The best news we've had in three years? A massive win for housing affordability  Mortgage rate momentum and whether now is the right time to refinance The key affordability improvements we've seen since the start of 2025  And So Much More!

Has real estate finally bottomed? Ben Miller, CEO of Fundrise (managing over $7B in real estate), says it's so. And he's not just talking about commercial real estate. If true, one particular type of real estate investment could do exceptionally well over the next year, but most people (even Dave!) are going in a different direction. Where could the next big real estate boom happen? We're getting into it! To continue this prediction season, Ben joins us to walk through a few crucial economic outlooks that could greatly affect the housing market. From AI stunting hiring to inflation actually going down (below 2%!), American wage trends changing dramatically, and the assets that will perform best, we're getting his take as someone who manages billions of dollars in real estate. Want mortgage rates to go down? We need lower inflation, and Ben says there's good news on the horizon for stable prices. New technology adoption could lead to much lower inflation (even deflation in some cases). Could this be what reignites the housing market as mortgage rates react to a more stable economy? Ben gives his full take, with some surprises even Dave wasn't prepared for.  In This Episode We Cover The bottom for real estate prices? Why Ben thinks it's here (or very close) The end of runaway inflation: How AI could kill the concern over rising costs  More Americans making less, and what happens when AI takes tens of millions of jobs  The one type of residential real estate that is poised to perform best in 2026  A new AI tool that could be pivotal for rental property investing research  And So Much More!

Homeownership has been baked into the American Dream for nearly a century. Politicians, parents, and banks all tell you the same thing: “Buy a house as soon as you can. It's your biggest asset.” But as a real estate guy who actually understands how wealth is created… I'm not convinced it makes sense for everyone—especially early in your career. Let me explain. Say you finally start making some real money—maybe you're a doctor fresh out of residency. The cultural script kicks in immediately: Buy a house. Build equity. Feel responsible. But here's the part most people forget: your primary home is not an asset. As Robert Kiyosaki puts it, if something takes money out of your pocket, it's not an asset—it's a liability. According to Bankrate and the Census Bureau, U.S. homeowners spend around $17,000 per year just to maintain and operate their homes—and that's before you make a single mortgage payment. That's property taxes, insurance, utilities, landscaping, repair bills, HOA fees… the list goes on. If your house is worth $1.5M, even the bare-minimum 1% annual maintenance rule hits you with $15,000 a year just to keep the place from deteriorating. Add insurance, taxes, utilities, and everything else, and you're looking at $30,000–$40,000 per year in unavoidable, non-negotiable carrying costs. And that still doesn't cover the roof that fails, the appliances that die, or the curveballs Mother Nature throws at you. None of that feels like an “asset” to me. Now, to be fair, people don't usually buy homes as investments. They buy them for stability, a place to raise kids, a sense of being “settled.” It's emotional. It's psychological. And it's real. But if you're young—and especially if you haven't hit your first million—it's worth asking yourself a tough question: Is buying a home right now the best financial move… or just the most familiar one? Because historically, U.S. home prices appreciate around 4.3% a year (Case-Shiller). Meanwhile, the S&P 500 averages closer to 10%. And if you’re in real estate investing? A solid multifamily value-add deal often targets 16–20% IRR—plus tax advantages your primary home will never give you. So if you're just getting started, it might make sense to delay that home purchase. Invest first. Build your passive income. Let your assets—not your salary—pay for your lifestyle. Then when you do buy a home, you'll be doing it from a position of strength, not strain. The irony is this: waiting often gets you to the dream home faster because your capital compounds instead of being trapped in drywall, windows, and a backyard you barely have time to enjoy. This Week on Wealth Formula Podcast, I interview expert Dr. Ken Johnson, who digs even deeper into this question—and lays out why homeownership isn't the golden ticket people think it is, especially for high earners early in their wealth-building years.

Earlier this week, Realtor.com released its 2026 housing forecast, and there is some good news. Mortgage rates are expected to fall to 6.3% from an average of 6.6%. The survey also predicts modest increases in sales, prices, and inventory, but also declining rents. After a bruising 2025 that saw the housing market sink to 30-year lows, even this modestly improving forecast is welcomed news, especially as Americans grow increasingly concerned about affordability. Realtor.com's Chief Economist Danielle Hale joins FOX Business' Gerri Willis to break down the numbers and explain what to expect in 2026. Learn more about your ad choices.
