In the final part of the 2025 Market Shift Update, David Sidoni breaks down why affordability is finally improving — and why old affordability formulas don't tell the full story. Discover how falling rates and shifting rent dynamics create opportunities for first-time buyers.For five years, first-time buyers have faced brutal affordability math. Home prices skyrocketed from $315,000 in 2020 to $438,000 in 2025, far outpacing normal appreciation. But the tide is finally turning. In this episode, David Sidoni explains how flattening home prices and falling mortgage rates are reshaping the affordability index in buyers' favor.More importantly, David reveals the fatal flaw in traditional affordability formulas: they ignore rent. Rent is your biggest monthly output — and it's rising no matter what. When you factor in rent replacement, buying often makes more financial sense than continuing to rent. David shows how to use this perspective to assess your readiness and why waiting for “perfect” affordability is a losing strategy.Packed with myth-busting insights, this episode equips buyers with the clarity and tactics needed to move forward in today's shifting market.“Buying a home is not a want purchase — it's a necessity purchase. You're paying for shelter either way.”HighlightsWhy affordability has been so brutal since 2020How today's interest rate drop makes homes more affordable, even at higher pricesThe flawed formula economists use to measure affordabilityWhy factoring in rent changes the entire equationTactical steps first-time buyers can use in today's market shiftReferenced Episodes382 - Part 1: Rates383 - Part 2: Sales, Inventory & Affordability279 - New Build vs Resale Houses for First Time Homebuyers350 - From ‘Years Away' to Homeowner: Your Last Lease Ever355 - Real Answers Pt 4 – Should I Rent or Buy in 2025?168 - Get Off Your Ass!Websitewww.getoffyourass.orgConnect with me to find a trusted realtor in your area or to answer your burning questions!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @HowToBuyaHomeInstagram @HowtoBuyAHomePodcastTik Tok @HowToBuyAHomeVisit our Resource Center to "Ask David" AND get your FREE Home Buying Starter Kit!David Sidoni, the "How to Buy a Home Guy," is a seasoned real estate professional and consumer advocate with two decades of experience helping first-time homebuyers navigate the real estate market.

Part two of this special series dives into three critical pieces of the 2025 housing market shift: home sales, inventory, and affordability. David Sidoni breaks down the numbers, explains why headlines can be misleading, and shows how today's changes open up new opportunities for first-time buyers.The 2025 housing market is in the middle of a transformation unlike anything seen in decades. In part two of this three-part series, David Sidoni unpacks the latest on home sales, shifting inventory, and affordability. He shares how existing home sales have dropped to just over 4 million in recent years, but new data and falling mortgage rates are signaling a move back toward healthier levels. Headlines might scream contradictions — sluggish sales one day, rising applications the next — but that's exactly why staying educated matters. Inventory is building, builders are offering incentives, and affordability is showing signs of life. For first-time buyers, understanding these shifts is the key to beating the rush and securing a home before competition heats back up.Quote: “If you take advantage of this shift now, you can beat the bum rush of a bazillion other buyers.”Highlights:Existing home sales data from 2019–2025 and what it means for first-time buyersWhy headlines about sales and applications seem contradictoryThe role of new construction and builder incentives in boosting supplyHow declining mortgage rates are already improving affordabilityActionable insights on how to prepare for the next market phaseReferenced Episodes:Part 1 of this 2025 Crucial Housing Market Shift series (home prices & mortgage rates)355 - Real Answers Pt 4: Should I Rent or Buy in 2025?Sources:Zillow, Redfin, Goldman Sachs, Housing Wire, Ris Media, US News, Bloomberg, The National Association of REALTORS®, Realtor.com, Homes.com, Zelman & Associates, Brian Buffini and other housing economists, The Mortgage Bankers Association, U.S. Census Bureau, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, financial Samurai, Moody's, Inman, US News, Apollo Global, Wells Fargo, and the National Association of Home Builders.Connect with me to find a trusted realtor in your area or to answer your burning questions!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @HowToBuyaHomeInstagram @HowtoBuyAHomePodcastTik Tok @HowToBuyAHomeVisit our Resource Center to "Ask David" AND get your FREE Home Buying Starter Kit!David Sidoni, the "How to Buy a Home Guy," is a seasoned real estate professional and consumer advocate with two decades of experience helping first-time homebuyers navigate the real estate market.

We also talk about some industry icons' new digs. And a new survey shows just how deep Gen AI has made it into your customers' shopping habits.This year's 2025 Automotive News All-Stars spotlight not only industry excellence but also creative vision, resilience, and innovation across every corner of automotive. From digital stardom to strategic investment and relentless dealership growth, here are three stories that stood out — with a few personal shoutouts we just had to include.Grace Kerber and Ben Bushen went from a whiteboard in upstate New York to GM headquarters thanks to their viral mockumentary series "The Dealership." The duo's humor, heart, and authenticity earned them a national audience — and a new role for Grace at GM.Bill Cariss keeps Holman Growth Ventures in the fast lane, securing a minority stake in FM Capital's $240M fund to scale automotive and mobility tech investments. “We are still going to do direct investments...but they are not going to be near the size of the funds that we will own with partners,” he said.Teddy Morse has taken Ed Morse Automotive from 12 stores to over 50 with cowboy boots, Harley-Davidsons, and a deeply personal leadership style. “You can lose the fact that there's a romantic side to this business,” Morse said. “To what we do to help people get their first car; to help people get their dream car.”Whether it's Grace's storytelling, Bill's venture savvy, or Teddy's boots-on-the-ground heart, these All-Stars prove that auto leadership is anything but average.A new player in the inventory sourcing space is making waves as sellmyride brings on a stacked roster of industry veterans. Unlike traditional lead-gen platforms, sellmyride is focused on helping dealers consistently source inventory from private sellers — a move designed to keep vehicles in local markets and out of national players' hands.Chip Perry, founding CEO of Autotrader and former TrueCar chief, has joined sellmyride as chairman, calling it the best dealer-to-public acquisition tool he's seen in 25 years.Steve Greenfield's Automotive Ventures is backing the company as part of a broader raise to support U.S. expansion.Robbie Bezdek, a Cox and iHeartMedia alum, brings marketplace and media expertise to help dealers acquire 50+ units per month from the public.The platform is designed to be “always on,” dealership-branded, and built for consistent private-party sourcing rather than ad hoc lead chasing.“Why shouldn't our clients capture those cars?” Perry said. “That's what we hope, that's what we dream about and that's what we're inspired to do.”A new survey from Omnisend shows just how deeply generative AI has embedded itself in e-commerce habits.

Inventory and materials management may not sound glamorous, but for us—and for any thriving shop—it's the difference between healthy cashflow and a financial chokehold. In this Machine Shop MBA conversation, we break down how smart inventory practices—both physical and digital—can free up space, cut costs, and improve delivery performance. From raw materials and finished goods to WIP and cutting tools, we share the financial, operational, and workflow implications of what you keep on the shelf (and what you shouldn't). You'll hear real-world examples of vendor-managed material programs, strategies for keeping traceability without burying yourself in admin work, and ways we've turned “dead” stock into real cash. We also dig into why inventory accuracy matters beyond just making parts—touching on tax implications, property valuations, and how inventory missteps can kill the value of your business in a sale. And if you've ever lost hours hunting for the right cutter or fixture, our storage and tracking advice might change the way you think about tooling forever.

Across the U.S., inventory is plentiful, yet prices stay high thanks to private equity firms and corporate landlords buying up entire neighborhoods, inflating values, and keeping taxes—and profits—sky-high. This isn't a supply problem; it's a power grab disguised as economics.

Taking Stock // A Spiritual Inventory (Pt. 4) | Jared Douglas

Canada's Housing Market Is Hitting a Breaking Point — and the August 2025 numbers prove it.Vancouver home prices have slipped to their lowest level in over two years. Toronto prices? Wiped back to 2020 levels — erasing nearly all the gains from the pandemic boom. Inventory is piling up, sales are stagnant, and in some cases, sellers are watching hundreds of thousands in value disappear.Meanwhile, the rental market — long thought to be untouchable — is cracking. Landlords are offering months of free rent to lure tenants, vacancy rates are climbing, and incentive-adjusted rents are falling fast. Investors are quietly exiting, major developers are hitting pause, and Canada's construction pipeline is suddenly at risk.It's not just housing feeling the pinch. Job vacancies have plunged to an 8-year low, the labour market is weakening at a worrying pace, and more Canadians are putting off retirement entirely — not by choice, but because the rising cost of living has left them with little or nothing to save. The “Bank of Mom & Dad” is under strain, debt is rising among older Canadians, and an entire generation is staring down the possibility of working well into their 70s.In this episode, we break down:The August 2025 Vancouver housing stats — including the first-ever July sales increase over June in history.Why Toronto's home prices are in full reversal mode.How the rental market is shifting — and why that could mean less housing built in the years ahead.The growing economic pressures that are reshaping how Canadians live, work, and retire.The rise in foreclosures and what it signals for the months ahead.This isn't just another market update — it's a snapshot of a housing and economic system under pressure from all sides. Whether you're a homeowner, renter, investor, or simply trying to understand where Canada's economy is headed, this is an episode you can't afford to miss.Watch to the end, then let us know in the comments: Do you think this is the start of a slow decline — or a sharper correction waiting to happen? _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Summary In this episode of the Be a Smarter Homeowner podcast, hosts Elizabeth Dodson and John Bodrozic discuss the importance of taking a home inventory and provide practical tips on how to get started.

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Western Dairy Management Conference in Reno, Nevada.Mike gives an overview of his three presentations at the conference regarding heifer supply. The panel discusses how the industry went from too many heifers to not enough heifers. (3:46)Clay asks Dan about his breeding philosophy from a semen standpoint right now as a purebred Holstein breeder. He suggests skating to where the puck's going versus where it's been, and focusing on yield and protein after such a large emphasis on fat. He also emphasizes health traits, particularly because the industry needs cows to last longer due to low heifer supply. Mike notes that this can have negative impacts, including lower milk yield, more chronic mastitis, and perhaps elongating the generation interval of genetic gain. He shares that while huge strides have been made in genetic improvement for yield and components, we have gone backwards a bit on disease resistance and fertility in the last five years or so. Tom suggests that it just ups the ante on management, especially with an older milking herd. (10:55)The panel talks about sexed semen (beef and dairy both) and IVF/embryo transfer. (14:49)Mike details some research in Holstein herds that decreased their replacement rate and number of heifers calving from 2020-2022 (surplus herds) compared to 2023-2024 (short herds). Short herds kept cows 25 days longer in milk, but the net impact was an average of seven pounds less milk per day over the last 30 days prior to culling. He also noted an increase in chronic mastitis in the short herds.  (20:18)Mike describes his presentation regarding the heifer completion rate: once a heifer is born alive, what's the expected percent of heifers remaining at first calving? Many producers have a false high assumption of this number, around 90%. In 65 herds Mike analyzed in the last year, the median completion rate was 76%. He details the different life stages during which losses occurred, along with management considerations to reduce these impacts. Dan shares his perspectives on the heifer completion rate. (24:11)The panel discusses a variety of topics around heifer supply, including whether heifers are entering the herd at a younger age to compensate for low inventories, appropriate heifer size at calving, optimal age at first calving, and just how short the supply of heifers is.  (29:01)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

First up is Paul Dowling & Jacqueline Ffrench who come from PD Ceramics (https://pdceramics.ie/) in Ireland. Paul grew up in a dental family and played in the shed in the backyard that was the lab. After attending lab school in London, Paul came back to Ireland and opened his own lab. Knowing teeth and not business, Paul recruits Jacqueline from a dental office to help. Jacqueline is good with business and saw the struggles in the lab and set out to make it a better place. Now she and Paul are starting to do it all over Ireland.

What happens when pet sitters take the leap into retail? Morgan and Austin Weber, owners of Lucky Pup Adventures, share how they purchased and now run Woofs and Waves, a beloved community pet store in Sioux Falls. They dive into the differences between managing a service business and a retail space, including inventory, staff training, and community outreach. They reflect on their complementary strengths and how they divide responsibilities for long-term growth. They also share how they're staying intentional about values, culture, and customer experience while preparing for potential future expansion. Main Topics Transitioning from service to retail Staff training and team culture Community outreach and partnerships Inventory and product selection Preparing for business growth Main takeaway: “You don't have to know everything about everything—you just need the right people passionate about the right things.” Running a business—especially in the pet industry—can feel overwhelming. From inventory and client care to marketing and employee training, there's always something new to learn. But the truth is, you don't need to be an expert in it all. What matters most is building a team where each person brings their strengths and passions to the table. When your fish lover geeks out over tanks and your dog nerd knows every ingredient in your food aisle, magic happens. Hire well, empower your people, and let their passion lead the way.

The real estate correction is here, but is a crash coming next? New data suggests sellers are getting increasingly frustrated as their houses sit—and they've finally had enough. Buyers are ready to pounce on lower-priced homes, but can they actually afford them? If you're investing in real estate, is now the best time in a long time to fight for a price cut or seller concession? We're back with our monthly housing market update, sharing our supply, demand, and home price predictions. Inventory is growing—fast. We're up double-digit percentage points year-over-year. But buyers are starting to catch on, getting back into the market. So, if we've got supply and demand, why are home prices falling—and could they fall even more? With so many homes on the market, are we on a crash course? What's stopping us from seeing double-digit home price declines in the most oversupplied markets? We're halfway through 2025, with a much better outlook on what's to come. Dave is giving a full update in today's episode on home prices, new listings, buyer demand, and the likelihood that this correction goes even deeper, becoming a full-fledged housing market crash. In This Episode We Cover Why sellers are quitting the housing market even as buyer demand grows  The key metric that proves you can get price cuts in 2025 (start negotiating!) The worrying trend for home prices that could foreshadow even more declines  One sector of real estate that is seeing massive distress (and foreclosure problems)  Markets with the best and worst home price trends (markets to target?)
