Podcasts about housing market

You've been lied to about affordable housing. Most people will either tell you it's impossible to buy an affordable home or that those buying affordable homes are outright stupid. The term “affordable” has been correlated with inexperienced buyers getting cheap deals on homes, often ending up in trailer parks or something of the sort. But things have changed. Mortgage rates are at decade highs, home prices tower over what everyday workers can afford, and a new age of affordability is upon us—we're here to unlock it for you. A new forest of David Greenery has sprouted as we welcome Kristina Smallhorn and Rob Abasolo onto this episode of Seeing Greene. Kristina, Louisiana-based realtor, has been fighting for affordability, helping get her clients into creative homes that don't break the bank. She's here to dispel all the myths about affordable housing, manufactured homes, modular homes, land investing, and more. We'll touch on build-to-rent homes and who should NOT be investing in them, green flags to look out for when buying land, and the danger behind new forty-year mortgages. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene.

In This Episode We Cover: Affordability in 2023 and how homebuyers can still purchase even with high home prices Modular homes and how these cheaper builds are quickly becoming the high-quality norm Build-to-rent properties and whether or not appreciation is worth the lack of cash flow Red (and green) flags to watch out for when buying land, plus how to know a plot can even be built on The forty-year mortgage explained and why it may be a BAD idea for desperate borrowers Misconceptions about affordable housing and why “mobile homes” aren't what you think And So Much More!

Did you know you can invest in real estate using funds you've probably forgotten about? For years, you've been socking away money into your IRA or 401(k) to ensure an abundant retirement. The problem? You've only been able to invest those funds into passive investments like stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. What about the investors who want a more active income stream with bigger tax benefits, more equity upside, and plenty of cash flow? Can you use your retirement accounts to build wealth with real estate? If you ask Kaaren Hall, her answer is a resounding yes. Kaaren saw quickly how the real money was being made in real estate, so she began investing herself, later realizing that she could use her retirement funds to build a real estate portfolio faster. She founded uDirect IRA Services to help other investors build wealth a better way, opening up more options for passive income, so your retirement accounts can grow into the millions. If you want to scale your real estate portfolio but don't have the cash on hand, this could be your PERFECT option. Kaaren goes over exactly how to use your retirement accounts to invest in real estate, what you can (and definitely can't) do when investing this way, and how you can start raising capital for your own deal using other people's retirement funds. This is a $40 trillion untapped opportunity, so don't miss out! In This Episode We Cover: Tax-free real estate profits and using self-directed IRAs to build your retirement accounts How Kaaren used retirement funds to buy her newest investment property  The self-directed IRA explained and why SO many savvy investors use one  The “layers” of retirement that'll help you build massive wealth for later in life  Mistakes you can make when using self-directed funds to invest (and how to avoid them) And So Much More!

As the confidence level of homebuilders building new homes is increasing, will home sales go along with it? Jim Egan and Jay Bacow, Co-Heads of U.S. Securitized Products Research discuss.----- Transcript -----Jim Egan: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Jim Egan, Co-Head of U.S. Securitized Products Research here at Morgan Stanley. Jay Bacow: And I'm Jay Bacow, the other Co-Head of U.S. Securitized Products Research. Jim Egan: And on this episode of the podcast, we'll be discussing the U.S. housing and mortgage markets. It's Tuesday, May 23rd at 2 p.m. in New York. Jay Bacow: It's been a while since we talked about the state of the U.S. housing market. And it seems like if I look at least some portions of the data, things are getting better. In particular, the NAHB confidence just showed for the fifth consecutive month that homebuilders are feeling better about building a house, and we're now finally at the point where they say it is a good time to build a house. When you take a step back and just look at the state of the housing market, do you agree? Jim Egan: I think it's a great question. Housing statistics are going in a whole number of different directions right now. So, yeah, let me take a step back. We've talked a lot about affordability on this podcast and it's still challenging. We've talked a lot about supply and it remains very tight, and all of this has really fueled that bifurcation narrative that we've talked about, protected home prices, weaker activity. But if we think about how the lock in effect and that's the fact that all of these current homeowners who have mortgages well below the prevailing mortgage rate just are not going to be incentivized to list their home for sale, then kind of a logical next step from a housing statistics perspective is that new home sales are probably going to increase as a percentage of total home sales. And that's exactly what we're seeing, new home sales in the first quarter of this year, they were roughly 20% of the total single unit sales volumes. That's the largest share of transactions in any quarter since 2006. And this dynamic was actually quoted by the National Association of Homebuilders when describing the increase in homebuilder confidence that you quoted Jay. Jay Bacow: Okay, but when I think about that percentage, aren't building volumes in aggregate coming down? Jim Egan: They are, though, as a caveat, I would say that if we look at that seasonally adjusted annualized rate, it did increase sequentially a little bit, month-over-month in April. What I would point to here is that from the peak in single unit housing starts, and we think the peak in the cycle was April of 2022, those starts are down 22%. Now, that's finally started to make a dent in the backlog of homes under construction. Now, as a reminder, again, this is something we've talked about here, there are a number of factors from supply chain issues to labor shortages, that we're really serving to elongate, build timelines in the months and years after the onset of COVID. And all of those things caused a real backlog in the number of homes under construction, so homes were getting started, but they weren't really getting finished. We see the number of single unit homes under construction is now down 130,000 units from that peak. Now, don't get me wrong, that number is still elevated versus where we'd expected to be, given the sheer number of housing starts that we've seen over the past year. But this is a first step towards turning more positive on housing starts. And again, homebuilder confidence Jay, as you said, it's climbed higher every single month this year. Jay Bacow: Okay, but you said this is a first step in turning more positive on housing starts. We get the start, we get the unit under construction, we get a completion and then eventually we get a home sale, so what does this mean for sales volumes? Jim Egan: We would think that it's probably likely for new home sales to continue making up a larger than normal share of monthly volumes, but we don't think that sales are about to really inflect materially higher here. Purchase applications so far in May, they're still down 26% year-over-year versus the same month in 2022. Now, that's the best year-over-year number since August of last year, but it's not exactly something that screams sales are about to inflect higher. Similarly, pending home sales just printed their weakest March in the history of the index, and it's the sixth consecutive month that they've printed their weakest month in index history. So it was their weakest February, their weakest January, and so on and so forth, so we think all of this is kind of emblematic of a housing market, specifically housing sales that are finding a bottom, but not necessarily about to move much higher. Jay Bacow: Okay. Now, Jim, in the past, when you've talked about your outlook for home prices, you mentioned your four pillars. There is supply, demand, affordability and credit availability. We've talked about the first three of these, we haven't really talked about credit availability yet. Jim Egan: Right. And that's another one of the reasons why we don't necessarily see a real move higher in sales volumes because of the whole new regime for bank assets that we've talked about a lot. Jay, you've talked about how much it's going to impact things like the mortgage market, so what do we mean when we talk about a new regime for bank assets? Jay Bacow: Fundamentally, when you think about the business model of a bank, if you're going to simplify it, it's they get deposits in and then they either make loans or buy securities with those deposits and they try to match up their assets to liabilities. Now, in a world where there's a lot more deposit outflows and happening more frequently, banks are going to have to have shorter assets to match that. And as they have shorter assets, that means they're going to have tighter lending conditions, and that tighter lending conditions is presumably going to play into the credit availability that you're looking for in your space. Jim Egan: And when we combine that with affordability that's no longer deteriorating, but still challenged, supply that's no longer setting record lows each month, but still very tight. All of that is a world in which we don't think you're going to see significant increases in transaction volumes. I will say one thing on the home price front month-over-month increases are back. We've seen some seasonality from a home price perspective, but we still think that that year over year number is going to soften going forward. It remains positive in the cycle, but we think it will turn negative in the next few months for the first time since the first quarter of 2012. We don't think those year-over-year drops will be too substantial. Our base case forecast for the end of the year is down 4%, we think it will be a little bit stronger than that down 4% number, but we think it will be negative. Jay Bacow: Okay. But I like things to be a little bit stronger. And with that, Jim, always great talking to you. Jim Egan: Great talking to you, too, Jay. Jay Bacow: And thank you for listening.

After seven straight months of declining prices, the S&P/Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index increased in February, and March seems to be carrying the same upward momentum. The latest data from Black Knight finds that out of the 100 largest markets in the nation, 93 had price increases from February to March, up from 79 in January-February.  This, of course, is traditionally expected as the spring months tend to bring a bump in prices as homebuying demand ramps up. But the rise is more than expected. “A modest bump in homebuyer demand ran headlong into falling for-sale supply,” said Andy Walden, Black Knight's vice president of enterprise research. “Just five months ago, prices were declining on a seasonally adjusted month-over-month basis in 92% of all major U.S. markets. Fast forward to March, and the situation has done a literal 180, with prices now rising in 92% of markets from February.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jason hosts Rick Sharga from C.J. Patrick Company who spoke about the current state of the economy and housing market. They discussed the cause of the resilience of the housing market despite 10 consecutive massive rate hikes. Rick stated that this is due to the large cohort of young adults currently coming of age and forming households, and the fact that people like having a roof over their head. They concluded that despite the rate hikes, the housing market is doing well. Rick discussed how demographics and the Fed funds rate increase have affected the housing market. He noted that in 2021, mortgage rates had doubled in a calendar year for the first time in history, leading to a higher cost of monthly payments for home buyers. He also mentioned how 70% of homeowners have mortgage rates of 4% or lower, which means they are not in a hurry to take on a higher rate. This is keeping inventory levels low, combined with growing demand, and causing prices to remain stable. He also noted how this is frustrating those who predicted a housing market crash. Rick Sharga and Jason Hartman discuss the current foreclosure rate, which is about half of the normal rate. They state that 93% of borrowers who are in foreclosure have positive equity. Of those 270,000 borrowers in foreclosure, 100,000 of them have 20-50% equity, 60,000 have more than 50% equity, and 20,000 have more than 75% equity. They also discuss the current state of the housing market. Mortgage rates have been increasing, but they seem to be stabilizing in a band between 6.25% and 6.75%. Existing home sales, inventory levels, new home sales, and rental pricing are all up from last year. Investor activity is also up. The Fed indicated at their last meeting that rates will remain stable until June.

Economists look to the residential housing market as a primary indicator of whether a recession is coming, and home transaction and construction data began showing positive signs that the housing downturn may have reached a bottom in February. Many believe we've dodged a severe recession, and some are even optimistic that the Fed will achieve the soft landing the central bank was hoping for—an outcome of stabilized inflation without a significant rise in unemployment.  Consumer spending has begun to plateau, and The Fed has signaled that it will likely put future rate hikes on hold while keeping an eye on inflation. The rate hikes that began last March may finally be coming to a close. Meanwhile, signs have pointed to a recovery in the housing cycle. After a contraction in selling activity, a slowdown in residential development, and falling home prices, things started to turn around in February.  Learn more about your ad choices.

This week's edition of Flashback Friday is from episode 425 published last 13 October 2014. On today's Creating Wealth Show, host Jason Hartman talks to financial maven and author, Bill Bonner, about his new book, Hormegeddon, how to create money out of thin air, the situation in Japan and whether you really can have too much of a good thing. Bill's company, Agora Financial, is a leading marketplace for advice and talking points about everything to do with investing so he's perfectly placed to assist those looking to increase their investment prowess. Ahead of the interview, Jason addresses the Elon Musk announcement of semi-autonomous cars and their inevitably disruptive impact on everything – including real estate. Key Takeaways: – The title for Bill Bonner's latest book, Hormegeddon, comes from the term for specific biological experiments which went awry: hormesis. – With many of these things they can start out as beneficial but the more you use them, the more issues arise. – The notion of creating money is so difficult for even experts to understand – how can real money be created from absolutely nothing? From thin air? – The trade of the decade assessment is not a prediction; it's all about analysing what's up and what's down. – The situation that Japan is currently in is terrible, and it doesn't look to be improving in the immediate future. – Indeed, there's every possibility that the US could follow suit and end up in a similar situation to Japan, especially with ever-increasing Chinese trade agreements using Chinese currency clauses. – One potential option could be ‘direct monetary funding' which is the act of giving money, rather than lending it, in an attempt to bring the economy back up by consumer spending. – If you borrow money long-term for real estate purposes and it's on a low-rate basis, inflation can eventually come along and pay off your debt for you. – Too much of a good thing is only too much. We view security as a good thing, but consider the money the Germans were spending on their own security during the war and that just can't be justifiable. – Declining marginal utility is where you invest too much into one thing and it all backfires. – Decades ago, the huge houses used to be owned by people who made things and had a real role in society and manufacturing; now they're just owned by hedge-fund guys. – With all of the technological advances now occurring, this is an amazing time to be alive. – Agora exists as a marketplace to collect together everyone's questions and answers about investing because no one knows who's going to have the right answer. – For more information, head to www.AgoraFinancial.com or for an entertaining read, check out www.DailyReckoning.com   Tweetables We spent 200,000 developing our sentiments and our bodies as humans, but now we're so unequipped to deal with quantitative easing. Empires get to impose their currency, but over time, they lose that ability – the dollar could seriously fall.   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

He considers having a famous guest for the special episode but decides to focus on the most powerful asset available to everyone—the mind. He shares his fascination with the mind since his school days and the influence of mentors like Dennis Whateley, Zig Ziglar, Jim Rohn, and Earl Nightingale. Jason emphasizes the incredible things that can be achieved with the mind, including the placebo effect and psychosomatic medicine. He expresses gratitude to his listeners and vows to continue sharing valuable content for years to come. He then discusses the power of the subconscious mind and the importance of managing one's mindset. They highlight the flaw in the subconscious mind, which is its inability to differentiate between reality and vividly imagined scenarios. This flaw can be hacked and used to one's advantage by visualizing desired outcomes with sensory-specific detail. He emphasizes the significance of visualization and the ability to create one's own future through the power of the mind. He also mentions the potential applications of visualization in real estate investing and touches on the topics of worries, beliefs, and the impact of expectations on one's reality. He posits that the brain is not just a processor, but a generator, and that thinking is actually quite energy intensive. Jason encourages listeners to explore guided visualizations to create their own future and hone their investing skills.   Key Takeaways: 1:29 It's finally here! 3:09 The most amazing asset you already have 6:17 My 4 great mentors and the "Power of your Thoughts" 7:29 The internal pharmacy 9:44 For 18 years now- thank you for listening! 13:23 The power of the mind 16:28 Subconscious mind cannot tell the difference 19:13 A different state of reality 24:22 Separate podcast 29:55 The brain is a generator 35:49 Discipline our minds 40:12 Let's visualize what we want in rich detail   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

In this Real Estate News Brief for the week ending May 13th, 2023... some good news about inflation, how a U.S. debt default might impact housing, and a new Gallup Poll on investor preferences.   Hi, I'm Kathy Fettke and this is Real Estate News for Investors. If you like our podcast, please subscribe and leave us a review.   Economic News   We begin with two inflation reports from this past week. The first was a report on the Consumer Price Index for April. The CPI shows a .4% rise in consumer prices which is a slight increase from the previous month, but it brought the annual rate below 5% for the first time in two years. It hit a high of 9.1% last summer, but is now down to 4.9%. The core rate, which omits food and fuel, was also down .4%, with an annual rate of 5.5%. Shelter prices rose the most, but those prices are slowing down. It's interesting to note that the three-month annualized rate is now at 3.2%. (1)   Producer prices are also coming down. The Labor Department reported a .2% increase in the Producer Price Index for April, with an annual rate of 2.3%. The PPI's core rate was also down .2% but the annual rate is a bit higher, at 3.4%. As MarketWatch reports: “Inflation is moderating at the consumer and producer levels. This is adding to market expectations that the Federal Reserve will refrain from raising interest rates further at the next meeting in mid-June.” (2)   The Fed's preferred report on inflation, known as the Personal Consumption Expenditure Index or PCE, will play a big role in what the Fed does next. That's coming out at the end of this month.   Weekly jobless claims were a surprise on the upside, with 240,000 people filing for benefits. They were 22,000 higher than they were for the previous week. Economists had only expected an increase of 3,000. That's the highest number of claims since October of 2021. The numbers have been steadily rising since January, for a total of 1.81 million continuing claims. Higher numbers indicate a softening of the job market and slower wage growth which the Fed wants to see in its fight against inflation. (3)   Mortgage Rates   Mortgage rates are still idling in the lower 6% range. Freddie Mac says the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was down four basis points to 6.35% this last week. The 15-year was down one point to 5.75%. (4) Freddie Mac's chief economist, Sam Khater, says: “A recent sideways trend in mortgage rates is a welcome departure from the record increases of last year.” (5)   In other news making headlines…   Mortgage Rates Would Skyrocket if U.S. Defaults on Debt   As lawmakers haggle over the debt ceiling, there's concern about what would happen if they don't come to an agreement and the government defaults. According to Zillow, it would have a devastating impact on the housing market, with mortgage rates potentially rising to 8.4%. That would increase a typical mortgage payment by 22%. (6)   Zillow says if mortgage rates get to the 8% level, existing home sales could fall from April's 4.3 million to around 3.3 million in September. That's a 23% drop. Zillow's senior economist, Jeff Tucker, acknowledges that a default is “unlikely” but if it did happen, he says it would send the housing market into a “deep freeze.”   It is hoped that President Joe Biden and Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy will hammer out a deal by June 1st. In a Bloomberg interview, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said: “There is no satisfactory solution for the U.S. that's good for the economy and financial markets other than Congress acting to raise the debt ceiling.”   Fed's Rate Hikes Are Now Hurting the Housing Market   Housing economists are not happy about the latest rate hike. The Fed hiked short-term rates another quarter point to a range of 5 to 5.25%. The National Association of Realtors' Lawrence Yun and the National Association of Home Builders' Robert Dietz call it “disappointing.” They say the high rates are freezing loan activity and hurting the economy. (7)   They say that consumer prices have been coming down for months and the last rate hike wasn't necessary. Yun says that: “Regional banks are an important source of loans – but they are frozen.” He says: “They are shuffling their balance sheets and figuring out what to do.”   Dietz says that higher rates are making it harder for developers to build homes, which are badly needed to boost inventory. He says: “We need to be building more than 1.1 million homes a year to haVe a meaningful impact on the lack of inventory.”    Real Estate Still a Top Investment Choice, but Lead is Shrinking   A recent Gallup poll shows that real estate is still a top investment choice, but the lead is shrinking. In 2022, 45% of the participants said that real estate is the best long-term investment. This year, that percentage shrank to just 34%. (8)   Many consumers have turned to gold, which has now taken second place and pushed stocks into third. Gold was favored by 26% this year, compared to 15% last year. Stocks dropped from 24% last year to 18% this year. Savings accounts, CDs, and bonds are up slightly but they are still in fourth place.    Gallup asked some of the participants about crypto, but that has lost its luster with the recent collapse of the FTX crypto exchange, and a decline in crypto prices, especially for bitcoin. Only 4% of Americans are choosing crypto. Last year, it was 8%.   That's it for today. Check the show notes for links, and the “Join for Free” button to become a member of RealWealth.

Two real estate markets still look like they've got room to grow in 2023, even as home prices face downward pressure for high mortgage rates and days on market begin to creep up. Markets like these two exploded in 2020-2022 and are still seeing strong demographic signs that more growth could be on the way. But, as two markets that have witnessed some of the most dramatic price appreciation in history, is now a worthwhile time to invest? In this episode, we're doing a market deep dive into two hot housing markets, Tampa, Florida, and Dallas, Texas. These two metro areas saw population booms like never before, shooting their home prices high and keeping competition hot, even as rates rise. But are these two markets starting to see a slowdown in 2023, or are there surefire signs that another wave of buyer activity is about to take place? With so many Americans moving to Texas and Florida, could this be the appreciation play of a lifetime? We're joined by Kim Meredith-Hampton and Victor Steffen, realtors in the Tampa and Dallas areas, respectively, to talk with David Greene and Dave Meyer about the potential of these two property markets. They'll touch on how to find cash flow even with high home prices, the strategies they're using today to lock in wealth-building buys for their clients, and why the days of bidding wars and buyer ferocity may be far from over. In This Episode We Cover: Updates on the Tampa and Dallas markets and whether or not there are still opportunities to buy Florida cash flow and whether or not the sunshine state has been tapped out of passive income  The Texas “BEAF” strategy wealthy investors are using to buy better properties  Short-term rental risk and regulations and what to do if your BnB gets banned  Out-of-state investing and which investors should put money into these property markets Mortgage rate impacts and what high home costs have done to buyer competition  And So Much More!

Jason recently spoke at the Rebel Capitalist Live event in Orlando, Florida. He was joined by a number of great speakers, including Simon Black, Robert Kiyasaki, Mike Maloney, Peter Schiff and George Gammon. He shared some of his presentation and also mentioned the Collective Mastermind group he runs with Ken Mcelroy, Robert Kiyasaki and George Gammon. The group is meeting in Nashville in a few days and they've decided to allow people to attend just one event as a sample.  Jason is also offering a one-time discount of one fourth of the membership fee for those interested in joining. He is also offering a Zoom meeting to discuss their very special 4.7, 5% financing for investment properties, including the option of 100% financing. This low rate, as well as the 100% financing, is a great option for those who want to take advantage of inflation and step destruction as a wealth-building strategy.  He then discusses the current market, noting that most of the market has become brand new builder homes in terms of buying investment properties, instead of buying renovated properties from fix and flippers. This is due to the fact that people don't want to sell their properties as they have ultra low mortgage rates. He also mentions that new builds come with a premium on the price, but most people prefer them anyway. In conclusion, the market is locked up and it is difficult to buy a renovated property from a fix and flipper. He also discusses the real estate market and how resilient it is. He makes the point that with mortgage payments having increased by almost 70%, prices have still held up. He also mentions that the supply of properties is very low, as people are unwilling to sell due to their low rate mortgages. He then talks about a headline from Housing Wire which states that home prices are inching up, despite difficult affordability. He also mentions a headline from Guild Mortgage, which states that they faced a $37 million loss in the first quarter due to high mortgage rates and low inventory levels. He finishes by saying that mortgage companies feel that rates are high and it is hard to get people to qualify for loans.

Real estate investing was never meant to be easy, but there are a few ways you can get started without putting a ton of your money or time at risk. Most real estate investors go gung-ho from the start, buying as many cheap rental properties as possible, only later to realize their mistake. But here's the thing; you don't need to invest in sketchy markets or buy dirt-cheap rentals to make money, you just need a bit of creativity if you want to get ahead. On this episode of Seeing Greene, we're taking you through a plethora of investing strategies. We talk about how to invest in real estate when at the tail end of your career, whether to convert your garage into a rental or buy an out-of-state investment, the true cost of holding onto a risky rental property, and why your “cash flow” numbers probably aren't what they seem. And, if you're a young investor thinking of skipping college to dive head-first into real estate, you may want to hear David's advice before you make that move. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he's going live so you can hop on a live Q&A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: House hacking in an expensive market vs. buying an out-of-state rental  Garage conversions and the surprising profits of turning storage space into a rental unit Going to college vs. becoming an agent and why you don't have to choose between the two The low-risk way to begin real estate investing (even if you're starting late!) How many bank accounts you REALLY need when running a rental portfolio When to give up on a risky rental property that has high expenses 1031 exchanges explained and how to dodge taxes when buying a new property And So Much More!

For real estate investors, passive income is almost always the goal. You may be making good money at your job, but the long days, longer nights, lack of sleep, and limited time off is probably leaving you feeling fatigued. This is exactly how Brittany Swait felt after a severe diagnosis put her life in danger. She was working harder than ever, but the time with her family was slowly slipping away. That was until she started investing. Brittany was able to build a fifty-nine-unit rental property portfolio in just three years. These properties bring in a staggering $200,000 per year passive paycheck, allowing Brittany to focus on her family, not take tasks from a boss. But this portfolio wasn't easy to build, even though it happened quickly. Brittany had to learn the BRRRR method, take considerable risks (like draining her retirement accounts), and put herself in an entirely new position. Now, just a few years later, Brittany is building her rental property portfolio at a fast pace, but she loves every minute of it. In this episode, she'll walk through the exact strategy she uses to make such high cash flow, her five tips for remodeling and renovating that will save you TONS of time, and how she's been able to pull her cash out of the deals she's doing. If you want to scale your real estate portfolio, Brittany is the person to listen to.   In This Episode We Cover: The one skill that allowed Brittany to scale from zero to fifty-nine rentals in three years Medium-term rental investing and how to triple your rent with one strategic move Using Facebook to find off-market deals and the one factor that matters MUCH more than you'd think How to estimate rehab costs and five tips you MUST follow when doing a renovation  BRRRRing in 2023 and how to get around the one-year seasoning requirement for a cash-out refinance  Being more than your job and how to build a life that YOU are in control of  And So Much More!

It's real estate armageddon! Ok, maybe not. But is it close? In this episode, Rob and Greg discuss the recent commission lawsuits that have been plaguing the real estate industry.   In the Moehrl vs. the National Association of Realtors, et al. case, the plaintiffs are pursuing over $13 billion in damages as they claim that they had to incur a cost that ideally should have been paid by the homebuyers themselves in a fair and competitive market, which is the buyer's agent commission.   Rob and Greg explore the potential implications of these lawsuits and what they could mean for buyers, sellers, and the real estate industry as a whole. We also discuss possible scenarios for how the market could evolve and what real estate professionals can do to prepare themselves for the armageddon ahead; oops, I mean changes ahead.   Listen to the Industry Relations Podcast across all podcast platforms!

Jason Hartman is getting close to his 2000th show and is thinking of ways to make it unique. He invites his friend Julia on the show to discuss tax sale investing, which is a form of direct real estate investing where one maintains control. He explains that direct investing can be more profitable, but requires more responsibility. He recommends utilizing the support network and resources available on JasonHartman.com to make the process easier.  Jason also talks about the fear felt by half of Americans regarding their bank holdings being at risk and shares an article by Jan Swanson which explains how the inventory woes are pushing home prices up. He then shares two insights from an upcoming interview with Rick Charga, that show how different areas of the US are being affected. The high end, cyclical markets such as San Francisco, San Jose, and Seattle are suffering major price declines, while Florida markets such as Orlando and Miami are experiencing tremendous growth. And make sure to join our mailing list to get our amazing offers. Just go to https://www.jasonhartman.com/contact/ today! Jason then talks to Julia Spencer about tax sale investing. Julia explains that it involves buying properties for pennies on the dollar for outstanding taxes. The taxes become unpaid when people default on them, and as a result, their properties are auctioned off. She believes that this is a great investment opportunity, as it allows people to purchase properties at a low cost. Julia also notes that there are many different nuances to tax sale investing, so it's important to be aware of them.

Barbara Corcoran understands real estate arguably better than anyone else. And while most of us know her from Shark Tank, Barbara swims in a league of her own as one of the most successful real estate investors and brokers in New York City. She knows the up-and-coming areas, the overpriced hipster neighborhoods, the streets to stray away from, and which will make you rich when owning real estate. And while Barbara has made a killing, she's done it in a way foreign to almost any other real estate investor. If you want to know the “formula” for making a fortune, this is the episode to tune into. In it, Barbara uncovers the exact way she finds the hottest rental markets before anyone else, why she consistently overpays for properties, the reason you should partner on almost EVERY deal you do, and why small-time investors are MUCH more likely to succeed than the big players. Not only that, but Barbara also shares her past failures and why falling flat on her face was what she needed to see great success. She talks about her infamous word-of-mouth campaign that sold out an eighty-unit apartment complex in hours, the “Corcoran Report” that landed her on the front page of The New York Times, and why you MUST talk to waiters whenever investing in a new area.  In This Episode We Cover: Barbara's investing formula that will make you a FORTUNE (if you take the risk!) A terrible first real estate investment and a crucial finding Barbara learned from failing Overpaying for properties and why savvy investors don't worry about the purchase price Cash-out refinances and why Barbara is ALWAYS taking money out of her properties Almost unbelievable marketing moves that Barbara made to boost her business Whether or not buying with today's “high” mortgage rates is a mistake Why taking a night drive could be your key to finding the best real estate markets  And So Much More!

Money plays a crucial role in our lives, yet many of us lack a deep understanding of how it truly works. We often view it as a simple tool for earning and spending, without recognizing its complexities and potential for long-term wealth creation. This is where the importance of reeducation comes in, particularly for business owners and families who seek to maximize their financial potential. In this episode, Russ Morgan, founder and partner of Wealth Without Wall Street, provides insights into understanding how money truly works and common misconceptions associated with it.

Cash flow strategy Using financial strategy for monthly business growth   About Russ Morgan Wealth Without Wall Street's Founder and Partner, Russ Morgan, is known as “The Idea Guy.” Russ began his professional career as an investment advisor in 2004 after graduating from Auburn University — a slight foray from 10-year-old Russ' dream of becoming a professional baseball pitcher. Russ started IBC in 2009, and eventually went on to found Wealth Without Wall Street in 2015. Russ' mother was an enormous inspiration for him growing up. As a single mother with two young children, she took a rigorous, accelerated track through college while working multiple jobs, all with the goal of bettering her children's lives. When he's not working, you can wave to Russ on a boat at the lake pulling his kids around on a tube. And on Sunday mornings, he's probably rushing to church with his family … only 10 minutes late. Russ' creativity, fresh ideas, and knack for problem solving are indispensable assets to his role at Wealth Without Wall Street. Russ would describe himself as competitive, creative, and passionate; his colleagues would likely add that he is helpful and abundant. Russ hopes to be remembered as an innovator who loved to teach others, and he has a goal to one day serve in the mission field. Finishing the book is another more near-term goal. Aside from Wealth Without Wall Street, Russ learns from the Business School podcast with Sharran Srivatsaa and Donald Miller's Building A StoryBrand book and podcast. Aspire Movement, Campus Outreach, and Young Business Leaders are three causes near to Russ' heart.

The US dollar could be ousted as the world's reserve currency as more and more countries move away from using a dollar-backed standard for trade.

March wasn't a great month for investor home sales. A new Redfin report shows that one in every seven homes sold by investors was sold at a loss. That's 14% of investor sales or about triple the number from a year earlier, and the highest level of investor home sale losses since 2016. But there is a catch! These sales were mostly for investors who bought more recently and sold after a short length of time, such as flippers.   Hi, I'm Kathy Fettke and this is Real Estate News for Investors. Please remember to subscribe to this podcast and leave us a review.   The housing market has slowed dramatically as home prices and mortgage rates make it tough to buy, and in some areas and for some people, tough to invest. It's important to remember that the report is based on national statistics, and that six in seven of those real estate investors made money on sales, although their gains may have been smaller.   Typical Gains for Investor Home Sales   Redfin says the typical investor who sold a home in March, sold it for about 46% more than they paid. That's down from a little over 55% in March of last year. Profit will likely be less than that, because of other costs, like renovations.   Redfin Senior Economist Sheharyar Bokhari says: “You might wonder why investors don't just wait to sell until the housing market bounces back. Many long-term investors who rent their properties are doing that, but many flippers–especially those who bought recently–can't afford to.” She says: “Holding onto homes that aren't producing income can be expensive because the owner is on the hook for property taxes, operating costs, and in many cases, mortgage payments.”   Phoenix Redfin agent Van Welborn says: “Home flippers aren't reaping the gains they used to.”   Flippers More Likely to Report Losses   If you narrow the overall results of the Redfin study down to “just” flippers, Redfin says that one in five sold at a loss in March. Redfin defines a flipper as someone who bought and sold a home within a nine-month time frame.    Holding long-term will likely produce much better results, although the median U.S. asking rent has been slowing. It was down .4% year-over-year in March but that is also the first time it's gone down in three years. Redfin agents say that Airbnb operators are also hurting in some markets, and have had to sell.   Flippers Lose More in Pandemic Boomtowns   Places where investors are more likely to sell at a loss are the pandemic boomtowns like Phoenix and Las Vegas. In Phoenix, 31% sold at a loss in March. In Las Vegas, that percentage was more like 28%.    T
