In this episode of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast, I'm hanging out with someone who's been in the trenches in some of the toughest rental markets and came out retired on a Florida beach — Ron Faraci. Ron has owned and managed several hundred low-income rentals, transformed ugly, problem portfolios into highly profitable ones, and ran CT REIA, the fifth-largest real estate investors association in the country. He's also the author of Confessions of a Landlord and creator of the now-famous 31-page "Bulletproof Lease."  We unpack how Ron quit his job, cashed out his 401(k), and went all-in on class C/D "ghetto-adjacent" properties, why he cares more about terms than price, and how he used forced appreciation and systems to retire in his mid-40s. He shares real-world landlording tactics—no garbage disposals, painted "magic handles," orange-coated copper, even canine-unit letters to chase off drug dealers—plus why he runs his business with "no mercy, no quarter" and a lease tenants initial 80+ times. If you're a landlord, property manager, or aspiring buy-and-hold investor who wants cash flow, control, and fewer headaches, this conversation is a masterclass in how to make tough rentals profitable without losing your mind.

Send us a textReady to scale beyond flips and small rentals into commercial real estate without stepping on landmines? We sit down with investor and educator Becky Lambert to unpack the blueprint: how to pick the right markets, structure safer debt, and build durable cash flow with tenants who actually stay. Becky has 16 years in commercial under her belt and breaks down the core framework with clarity—what NOI really tells you, how DSCR protects your downside, and why a 1% shift in cap rate can swing a valuation by millions.We dig into the hidden systems that make or break deals: boilers, elevators, roofs, and power capacity. If you've ever inherited an old building and found out the hard way what “inspection missed” means, you'll appreciate the playbook for due diligence that buys leverage at the negotiating table. Becky shares how to curate tenant mixes that pull traffic—think surgeons, PT, pharmacies, and synergistic retail near hospitals—and why staggering lease expirations matters more than squeezing the last dollar on day one. We also explore counter-cyclical assets like storage, the trade-offs in specialized warehouses, and how ground leases and cell towers can add surprising income streams.For those itching to jump in, Becky explains why joining a syndication is a smart first step to learn IRR, equity multiple, and lender relationships from inside the deal. From selecting a market with real growth drivers to designing leases with escalations and creditworthy tenants, this episode gives you a clear path to move up the ladder without gambling your portfolio. If the numbers tell the truth, learn to listen—and let your strategy match what the market actually wants.Enjoyed the conversation?

Nu este exclus ca anul viitor în discuțiile de pace pentru Ucraina să apară și numele Republicii Moldova, în contextul în care Rusia ar vrea să își păstreze teritoriile pe care le controlează în acest moment și să-și extindă influența și în alte regiuni, cum este și cazul Transnistriei. Invitatul Moldova Zoom de astăzi este Alexandru Lăzescu, analist de politică externă, cu care a stat de vorbă Larisa Bernaschi. Temele ediției: - România va găzdui, în primul trimestru al anului 2026, trilaterala miniștrilor de externe de la București, Kiev și Chișinău. „Un subiect important pe agendă va fi procesul de reconstrucție a Ucrainei”, declară ministra de Externe a României, Oana Țoiu, aflată într-o vizită oficială la Chișinău, cu prilejul reuniunii șefilor misiunilor diplomatice și oficiilor consulare ale Republicii Moldova din străinătate. O corespondență semnată de Valeria Vițu. - Un fost premier de la Chișinău a fost condamnat la închisoare. Doar că nu s-a întâmplat în Republica Moldova, ci în Franța. O instanță a decis ca Vlad Filat să stea doi ani în închisoare în Franța și să plătească 100 de mii de euro statului francez pentru spălare de bani într-un dosar de corupție. Dar cine este Vlad Filat și ce rol a jucat în politica Republicii Moldova? Ne explică Vitalie Cojocari în ”Cronical lui Vitalie”. - Apropierea de Uniunea Europeană, sprijin ferm pentru Ucraina și parteneriat strategic cu România. Președinta Maia Sandu a trasat prioritățile politicii externe pentru anul următor. - Linia electrică Vulcănești-Chișinău, cea care va asigura transportarea directă către Republica Moldova a energiei electrice cumpărate în România, este aproape de a fi dată în exploatare. - Patru companii și-au depus ofertele pentru extinderea terminalului Aeroportului Internațional Chișinău. - În satul Mândreștii Noi, din raionul Sângerei, din nordul Republicii Moldova, tradiția se lucrează cu acul, de mână. În atelierul soților Artur și Alexandra Oleinic, cojocăritul prinde viață printre piele tăbăcită, lână naturală și cusături bătute ca odinioară. Aici se nasc căciuli țurcănești, opinci și bundițe purtate de urători și colindători, iar pentru moldovenii din diasporă, ele devin mai mult decât un port popular, sunt amintiri pe care pot să le îmbrace și care țin aproape casa părintească și iernile de demult. Mai multe, în materialul semnat de Cătălin Volconovici și Denis Chirtoca. Știrile zilei: Linia electrică Vulcănești-Chișinău, cea care va asigura transportarea directă către Republica Moldova a energiei electrice cumpărate în România, este aproape de a fi dată în exploatare, iar în perioada următoare sunt planificate etapele de testare, a declarat în cadrul unei conferințe de presă, ministrul Energiei, Dorin Junghietu. În prezent, curentul cumpărat din România ajunge în Republica Moldova prin nodul energetic de la Cuciurgan, aflat pe teritoriul regiunii separatiste Transnistria și, teoretic, alimentarea poate fi întreruptă în orice moment de regimul separatist de la Tiraspol. Noua linie va exclude această vulnerabilitate și va consolida securitatea energetică a Republicii Moldova. „Linia Vulcănești-Chișinău conectează direct R. Moldova la sistemul energetic al României și implicit la rețeaua europeană ENTSOE, oferind stabilitate, siguranță și capacitate de reacție în situații de criză”, a declarat ministrul energiei de la Chișinău. Dorin Junghietu a mai precizat că, în paralel, avansează proiectele de interconectare cu România cu liniile de tensiune înaltă Bălti-Suceava și Strășeni-Gutinaș, care vor crește capacitatea de schimb transfrontalier și vor consolida integrarea Republicii Moldova în piața energetică europeană. *** Apropierea de Uniunea Europeană, sprijin ferm pentru Ucraina și parteneriat strategic cu România. Președinta Maia Sandu a trasat prioritățile politicii externe pentru anul 2026 la reuniunea ambasadorilor Republicii Moldova. O direcție importantă este și mobilizarea sprijinului internațional pentru consolidarea securității Republicii Moldova și poziționarea Chișinăului ca partener responsabil care contribuie la stabilitatea regională. *** Patru companii și-au depus ofertele pentru extinderea terminalului Aeroportului Internațional Chișinău. Administratorul aeroportului, Sergiu Spoială, a declarat la postul public Moldova 1 că sarcina companiei câștigătoare va fi extinderea suprafeței terminalului cu 5.000 de metri pătrați și modernizarea întregii infrastructuri. Aeroportul Chișinău a depășit în acest an pragul de 5 milioane de pasageri deserviți, iar extinderea terminalului vine ca soluție imediată la suprasolicitarea infrastructurii. După lucrările de modernizare, Aeroportul Chișinău va putea deservi 7,5 milioane de pasageri anual. Finalizarea lucrărilor este planificată pentru sfârșitul anului viitor. *** Fostul premier moldovean, Vlad Filat, și prima sa soție au fost condamnați de o instanță franceză pentru spălare de bani, scrie Ziarul de Gardă. Filat a fost condamnat la doi ani de închisoare și plata unei amenzi de 100 000 de euro, iar pe fosta sa soție – la 18 luni de închisoare cu suspendare și o amendă de 150 000 de euro. Aceasta va trebui totodată să plătească, împreună cu Filat, 10 000 de euro Republicii Moldova pentru daune morale. Fostul premier, care a executat o pedeapsă cu închisoare și în Republica Moldova, a reacționat, spunând că instanța franceză a pronunțat o decizie motivată politic, influențată de Republica Moldova. Solicitările exagerate și nefondate au dus la o hotărâre fără precedent, spune Filat declarând în același timp că a depus recurs împotriva acestei sentințe.
Noi credem cu tărie că un mesaj în care Evanghelia si Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu sunt centrale şi expuse autentic, are impact în viaţa ascultătorului.Aşadar, fie că eşti membru într-o biserică sau auzi pentru prima dată un mesaj de genul acesta, avem încredinţarea că dacă-l vei asculta cu seriozitate va fi benefic pentru viaţa ta.Credem cu tărie că Dumnezeul Triunic s-a revelat personal în Scripturi şi deasemena credem că a revelat omului planul Său cu privire la creaţie.De aceea încercăm, în măsura în care am fost înzestraţi de Duhul Sfânt, să transmitem mesaje fidele Scripturii, care afirmă despre ea însăşi, că este singura autoritate, suficientă pentru orice aspect important al vieţii omului. 2Timotei 3:15-17Suntem o comunitate de oameni obişnuiţi, păcătoşi şi imperfecţi dar care prin Harul Lui Dumnezeu, jertfa substitutivă a Domnului Isus de la cruce şi lucrarea tainică a naşterii din nou făcută de Duhul Sfânt, personal în fiecare dintre noi, am fost salvaţi, regeneraţi şi sfinţiţi.Credem deasemenea că suntem făpturi noi locuite şi abilitate de Duhul Sfant să trăiască o viaţă de sfinţenie pentru Gloria Lui Dumnezeu, având onoarea şi responsabilitatea să fim angrenaţi activ în lucrarea de răscumpărare a Lui Dumnezeu.Noi nu pretindem mesaje infailibile, dar pretindem că Biblia este infailibilă; Nu pretindem că avem monopolul Adevărului, dar pretindem că Hristos este "Calea, Adevărul şi Viaţa".De aceea scopul nostru nu este să te inducem în eroare sau să te amăgim, nici să spunem doar ceea ce vrei să auzi, ci este să expunem clar Cuvântul Lui Dumnezeu pentru ca Acesta să producă Credinţă autentică în viaţa omului şi să dea direcţie celor aflaţi deja pe calea sfinţeniei.Știm şi recunoaștem că suntem într-un proces de învățare continuă, astfel identificăm slăbiciuni în ceea ce privește expunerea Cuvântului lui Dumnezeu, pe care cu ajutorul Duhului Sfânt vom incerca să le diminuăm, dar în ciuda acestui neajuns universal valabil tuturor lucrătorilor de pretutindeni, avem certitudinea că preluate de Duhul Sfânt, mesajele noastre bine intenţionate vor fi de folos pentru o lucrare destoinică.Aşa că frate/soră sau prieten/ă drag/ă, dacă asculţi acest mesaj, te rog să inţelegi că Dumnezeu în providenţa Lui a decis să-l asculţi, intr-un scop pe care-L are cu tine personal, dar cu un beneficiu reciproc, probabil spre mântuire, pocăinţă, încurajare, zidire, mustrare, corectare, învăţare.Te încurajăm să ne contactezi (bisericaradiant.ro/) şi să ne spui cum ţi-a vorbit acest mesaj.
Most new investors think NOI equals cash in their pocket. It doesn't. In this episode, I break down what NOI actually is, how the capital stack works, why GPs get paid last, and how misunderstanding this one concept can destroy deals before they even start. If you want to avoid rookie mistakes and underwrite like a pro, this is required listening.
In questo capitolo entriamo in uno dei territori più delicati e scivolosi della vita emotiva: la coppia. Non la coppia idealizzata, raccontata nei film o difesa a colpi di buone intenzioni, ma quella reale, quotidiana, fatta di aspettative, silenzi, ruoli che si cristallizzano e chimiche che cambiano senza chiedere permesso. Parleremo dei giochi vittima e carnefice, di come spesso ci rifugiamo in una posizione apparentemente morale ma emotivamente sterile, e di quanto questa dinamica abbia poco a che vedere con l'amore e molto con l'identità. Vedremo perché aspettarsi che l'altro cambi, capisca da solo o torni com'era è una delle strategie più efficaci per sabotare una relazione. Ti accompagnerò anche dentro le fasi chimiche della coppia, perché sì, per quanto possa essere poco poetico dirlo, dietro ogni grande coinvolgimento emotivo c'è un cocktail di sostanze che governa desiderio, attaccamento e disillusione. Capirle non toglie magia all'amore, ma restituisce lucidità. Questo capitolo è un invito a smettere di guardare la relazione come spettatori indignati e a iniziare a viverla da protagonisti responsabili, capaci di confini, di comunicazione adulta e di rispetto per sé e per il NOI. Se sei pronto a farti qualche domanda scomoda, sei nel posto giusto.Buon ascolto.

Global Investors: Foreign Investing In US Real Estate with Charles Carillo
In this Strategy Saturday episode, Charles Carillo breaks down the 5-step value add multifamily process used to increase apartment NOI and transform underperforming apartment complexes into higher-value assets. Value add apartment investing is not just about renovating units and raising rents. True value is created by improving operations, fixing deferred maintenance, stabilizing tenant relationships, and executing renovations in the right sequence. In this video, Charles explains how professional multifamily investors execute a value add apartment business plan after a property goes under contract. You'll learn how to: • Identify property issues before closing • Prioritize deferred maintenance and curb appeal before rent increases • Build tenant goodwill during renovations • Renovate units strategically to maximize rent growth • Optimize multifamily operations using KPIs like occupancy, income, and turnover This episode is designed for multifamily real estate investors, apartment syndicators, and operators who want to understand how to increase apartment NOI without raising rents too early.

Liturgia della Settimana - Il Commento e il Vangelo del giorno
Spessissimo ci viene proposto questo sublime cantico di lode e di ringraziamento nella liturgia. La sua recita o il suo canto sono d’obbligo ogni sera nella celebrazione del Vespro, e nella voce dei monaci, dei religiosi salmodianti è presente tutta la Chiesa, tutti i fedeli. Mi sembra allora quanto mai naturale, al termine della giornata durante la quale tanti doni di Dio ci hanno accompagnato, ripetere con Maria: l’anima mia ringrazia, loda e riconosce la grandezza di Dio, che si china a donare le sue grazie non solo a Maria, ma a tutti noi. Noi, cosi poveri di ogni merito, stiamo sperimentando le meraviglie del Signore nel dono della fede, della speranza e della carità, nel susseguirsi dei tempi e delle celebrazioni liturgiche, che ci fanno rivivere, nelle loro varie fasi, il progetto di salvezza di Dio: dal battesimo, che ci ha resi figli ed eredi del paradiso e ci ha aperto le porte agli altri sacramenti, dispensatori di grazia, fino alla realizzazione dell’oggetto della speranza cristiana e dell’opera redentrice di Gesù, la salvezza eterna. Il ringraziamento, quindi, è doveroso. Vorrei suggerire ai celebranti di recitare questo cantico mentre lasciano l’altare, nel ritorno in sacrestia, ma lo vedo vantaggioso anche per i fedeli come espressione della propria gratitudine, non solo dopo la santa Comunione, ma anche in altri momenti nei quali si sente il bisogno di innalzare a Dio l’inno di lode per i benefici ricevuti. La gratitudine attira sempre nuovi favori, come nel caso dei dieci lebbrosi, dei quali uno solo ritorna a Gesù per ringraziarlo della guarigione fisica, ricevendo con essa un dono immensamente più grande, quello della fede.
Dronele rusești produc victime tot mai aproape de Republica Moldova. Explozii la frontiera cu Ucraina au omorât o femeie și i-au rănit pe cei trei copii ai săi, care în momentul exploziei erau în mașină pe pod. Atacurile, repetate ieri și în această noapte, au blocat circulația către regiunea Odesa. Inspectoratul General pentru Situații de Urgență (IGSU) asigură cazarea cetățenilor ucraineni a căror deplasare spre Ucraina a fost limitată în urma bombardamentelor podului peste Nistru. Temele ediției: - Republica Moldova nu este blocată în procesul de aderare la Uniunea Europeană, dă asigurări Comisara pentru extindere Marta Kos. - Invitatul Moldova Zoom vine de la Bălți – este Ghenadie Râbacov, coordonator de proiecte educaționale, profesor, lingvist și traducător. Discutăm despre ce statut are astăzi limba franceză în Republica Moldova. - Un studiu arată că în autonomia găgăuză din sudul Republicii Moldova există o neîncredere ridicată față de mass-media națională, în special cea în limba română, și față de mesajele oficiale ale autorităților centrale. Cercetarea s-a concentrat pe Găgăuzia și Taraclia și a arătat că oamenii se informează în mare parte online, mai ales prin rețelele sociale, sau de la prieteni și rude. Locuitorii consideră că dezinformarea este o problemă serioasă, dar responsabilitatea este atribuită mai mult autorităților, politicienilor locali, Uniunii Europene și țărilor occidentale, și mai puțin Rusiei. Liliana Barbăroșie a analizat mai detaliat cercetarea și aduce amănunte. - Vladimir Putin i-a numit pe europeni porci. Televiziunea de stat de la Moscova a încercat să explice retorica lui Vladimir Putin. Ce acuzații aduce României și ce legătură are eticheta cu Republica Moldova, explică jurnalistul Euronews România Vitalie Cojocari în „Cronica lui Vitalie”. - În satul Mândreștii Noi, din raionul Sângerei, tradiția se lucrează cu acul, de mână. În atelierul soților Artur și Alexandra Oleinic, cojocăritul prinde viață printre piele tăbăcită, lână naturală și cusături bătute ca odinioară. Aici se nasc căciuli țurcănești, opinci și bundițe purtate de urători și colindători, iar pentru moldovenii din diasporă, ele devin mai mult decât un port popular, sunt amintiri pe care pot să le îmbrace și care țin aproape casa părintească și iernile de demult. Mai multe, în materialul semnat de Cătălin Volconovici și Denis Chirtoca. Știrile zilei: Dronele rusești produc victime tot mai aproape de Republica Moldova. O femeie a murit, iar cei trei copii ai săi au fost răniți pe un pod peste răul Nistru din sudul Ucrainei, pod care face ăcea legătura dintre Odesa și Reni. Guvernatorul regiunii Odesa, Oleg Kiper, a anunțat că cei patru se aflau într-un automobil civil care se deplasa pe pod în momentul în care drona rusească a explodat. Podul de peste Nistru de pe traseul Odesa-Reni, a fost lovit de drone ieri după amiaza, iar Poliția de Frontieră a Republicii Moldova a anunțat că circulația în zonă a fost oprită și a fost suspendată activitatea punctelor de frontieră cu Ucraina Palanca-Maiaki-Udobnoe și Tudora-Starokazacie. Punctele și-au reluat activitatea în seara zilei, însă în această noapte un nou atac rusesc cu drone a blocat din nou circulația în zona podului Maiaki-Udobnoe, iar ieșirea spre Odesa este blocată. Pentru siguranța cetățenilor, toate mijloacele de transport care se deplasau spre Odesa sunt redirecționate și întoarse pe teritoriul Republicii Moldova. Activitatea punctului de trecere a frontierei Palanca-Maiaki-Udobnoe este sistată pe sensul de ieșire din Republica Moldova. Totodată, în PTF Tudora–Starokazacie, traversarea este permisă doar călătorilor care se deplasează în direcția Belgorod, Ucraina. Autoritățile de frontieră recomandă cetățenilor să se abțină de la deplasări în această direcție până la ameliorarea situației de securitate. *** Inspectoratul General pentru Situații de Urgență (IGSU), în comun cu agenția ONU pentru refugiați (UNHCR), asigură cazarea cetățenilor ucraineni a căror deplasare spre Ucraina a fost limitată în urma bombardamentelor podului peste Nistru. În scopul garantării siguranței acestora, Inspectoratul pentru Situații de Urgență a instalat în localitatea Palanca o tabără mobilă pentru acordarea sprijinului persoanelor care au ales să aștepte traversarea frontierei pe sensul de ieșire spre Ucraina, prin punctele de trecere a frontierei de stat Palanca și Tudora. Tabăra oferă persoanelor adăpostite posibilitatea de a beneficia de hrană și băuturi calde. Totodată, familiile cu copii sunt îndemnate să accepte cazarea într-un spațiu dotat cu locuri de dormit, până la clarificarea situației. *** Republica Moldova nu este blocată în procesul de aderare la Uniunea Europeană, chiar dacă, recent, a fost vorba doar despre o deschidere tehnică a negocierilor, și nu despre una oficială. Precizările au fost făcute de Comisara pentru extindere Marta Kos, în cadrul emisiunii „În Profunzime” de la ProTV, unde a explicat diferența dintre cele două etape și contextul geopolitic care influențează deciziile la nivel european. „Moldova, de fapt, în trecut a primit deja invitația pentru procesul de aderare. De ce avem nevoie acum este de undă verde, cu alte cuvinte, de o decizie oficială pentru a putea deschide toate clusterele. Însă, de fapt, nu există nicio diferență pentru lucrurile pe care le are de făcut Republica Moldova”, a declarat Marta Kos. Potrivit acesteia, esențial nu este momentul formal al deschiderii oficiale, ci livrarea reformelor necesare pentru alinierea legislației naționale la acquis-ul comunitar. „Întrebarea, de fapt, constă în cât de rapid puteți promova aceste reforme. Ați început acest proces împreună cu Ucraina, acum nu este momentul să vă decuplăm. Când procesul va fi inițiat, el va fi în totalitate bazat pe merite și vom vedea ce se va întâmpla”, a conchis Marta Kos. *** Narațiuni care contestă integrarea europeană, legitimitatea autorităților și direcția geopolitică a Republicii Moldova sunt promovate constant pe YouTube, inclusiv în afara campaniilor electorale. Constatarea apare într-un raport de monitorizare publicat de Centrul pentru Jurnalism Independent, care arată că aceste mesaje rămân stabile și recurente în spațiul online, transmite IPN. Raportul arată că cele mai frecvente mesaje false susțin că integrarea europeană ar dăuna oamenilor și economiei, că în stat ar avea loc represiuni politice și cenzură, că opoziția ar fi persecutată, iar autoritățile nu ar fi legitime. Alte narațiuni promovează ideea că aderarea la UE reduce autonomia statelor mici, amenință identitățile culturale și valorile tradiționale sau că NATO ar atrage Moldova într-un război. Narațiunile au fost folosite intens în cadrul campaniei electorale pentru alegerile din Republica Moldova, cele parlamentare din toamna acestui an, dar și cele prezidențiale din 2024, iar autoritățile au declarat că în spatele acestei ample campanii de dezinformare ar sta Rusia.
Viitorul nostru va fi rescris de tinerii antreprenori care, astăzi, creează aplicațiile de mâine. Au la îndemână idei și tehnologii care transformă aceste idei într-o afacere bazată pe coduri. Am invitat astăzi la « Noi venim din viitor » un tânăr de acest fel. L-am cunoscut în acceleratorul de startup-uri Innovation Labs de la Politehnica din București, unde sunt mentor și activez în jurii. Aici e locul în care afacerile viitorului cresc la firul ierbii. Cristian Carp nu a reușit din prima. Nimeni nu reușește din prima. Reușesc doar cei care nu renunță după ce nu reușesc prima dată. Și nici a doua și nici a treia. Ai nevoie de o doză mare de determinare și disciplină ca să avansezi pe drumul antreprenoriatului. Cristian Carp face parte din această categorie de tineri încăpățânați care nu renunță. Are 32 de ani și a fondat afacerea lui, botezată Wild Media, acum vreo 13 ani. În iunie 2024 a lansat aplicația Shorts AI, cu care a plecat în Statele Unite.

Noi e altri animali È la trasmissione che da settembre del 2014 si interroga su i mille intrecci di una coabitazione sul pianeta attraverso letteratura, musica, scienza, costume, linguaggio, arte e storia. Ogni giorno con l'ospite di turno si approfondisce un argomento e si amplia il Bestiario che stiamo compilando. In onda da lunedì a venerdì dalle 12.45 alle 13.15. A cura di Cecilia Di Lieto.
Nella mattinata di venerdì 19 dicembre, è stato ospite in Degiornalist - Gli Spaccanotizie, il paleontologo Cristiano Dal Sasso del Museo di Storia Naturale di Milano, che ci ha illustrato l'eccezionale ritrovamento di migliaia di impronte di dinosauri nel Parco dello Stelvio. Le tracce, risalenti a circa 210 milioni di anni fa, rivelano il passaggio di branchi composti da esemplari adulti e giovani lungo antichi litorali fangosi. «È importante non solo per noi lombardi, che abbiamo finalmente un giacimento di orme di dinosauri anche nella nostra regione - spiega il paleontologo ai nostri Fabiana Paolini e Claudio Chiari - ma è importante a livello globale perché del triassico superiore ci sono pochi siti con poche orme. Qui invece Elio della Ferrera, il fotografo che le ha viste per primo, ne ha trovate migliaia». Grazie all'utilizzo di tecnologie moderne come i droni, i ricercatori possono analizzare pareti verticali altrimenti inaccessibili per ricostruire i comportamenti di questi erbivori bipedi. L'esperto sottolinea come lo studio dei fossili non sia solo una ricerca accademica, ma uno strumento essenziale per comprendere l'evoluzione biologica e i rischi climatici attuali: «Penso che sia interesse di tutti sapere chi siamo e da dove veniamo prima di tutto e poi dal passato possiamo anche imparare. Noi siamo ormai la specie dominante al punto tale che abbiamo cambiato il clima, lo stiamo condizionando. Però attenzione, perché questo può portare a delle estinzioni», conclude Cristiano Dal Sasso.

Giovanni Pannacci"A domani, ragazzi"Fernandel Editorewww.fernandel.itAl liceo Italo Calvino sei ragazzi si affacciano all'ultimo anno di scuola, tra interrogazioni, amori, amicizie complicate e voglia di cambiamento. Elias, Lisa, Gemma, Matei, Paula e Javier non potrebbero essere più diversi, ma condividono una stessa esigenza: quella di essere ascoltati.Quando la nuova preside impone una visione autoritaria della scuola, gli studenti reagiscono inscenando una performance corale che unisce linguaggi artistici, citazioni letterarie e creatività. La loro ribellione pacifica e creativa finisce online e diventa virale.Dietro i riflettori della protesta, però, restano i corpi e le emozioni: amicizie che si consolidano, amori che nascono, ferite personali che chiedono di essere curate. Mentre gli adulti si dividono tra chi condanna e chi incoraggia, i protagonisti imparano che ogni rivoluzione ha un prezzo. E che la libertà non è una conquista definitiva, ma un esercizio quotidiano che si costruisce insieme.Giovanni Pannacci dà voce a un romanzo corale capace di raccontare l'adolescenza di oggi: fragile e combattiva, ironica e profonda. A domani, ragazzi è un romanzo di formazione che parla di scuola, di educazione e di crescita, ma è anche un libro che offre agli insegnanti spunti didattici e percorsi interdisciplinari da portare direttamente in classe.(Copertina di Stefano Bonazzi)Giovanni Pannacci vive a Rimini, dove insegna filosofia e storia in un liceo. In passato è stato conduttore radiofonico e ha scritto per il teatro, la pubblicità e il web. Come autore ha esordito nel 2012 con il romanzo La canzone del bambino scomparso (Perrone). Per Fernandel ha pubblicato i romanzi L'ultima menzogna (2016), La donna che vedi (2019) e Noi siamo qui (2021), di cui A domani, ragazzi rappresenta l'ideale continuazione.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

OPREȘTE-TE ȘI REFLECTEAZĂ! „Noi, în fiecare zi, ne lăudăm cu Dumnezeu, și pururea slăvim Numele Tău. Oprire.” (Psalmul 44:8)
Germania urmează să trimită trupe în Polonia, în efortul de a consolida flancul estic al NATO. Mișcarea vine în contextul creșterii îngrijorărilor cu privire la planurile agresive ale Rusiei. Numărul soldaților este mic, misiunea lor este pur defensivă, dar semnificațiile acestui gest sunt importante. Germania va trimite soldați Bundeswehr pentru a ajuta Polonia la granița sa estică cu Belarus și cu exclava rusă din Kaliningrad. Potrivit unui purtător de cuvânt al Ministerului Apărării din Germania, principala sarcină a soldaților germani din Polonia va consta în „activități de inginerie militară”. Ei vor ajuta la „construirea de fortificații, săparea de tranșee, instalarea gardurilor de sârmă ghimpată sau ridicarea de bariere pentru tancuri”. Potrivit oficialului de la Berlin, efectivele trimise vor fi de aproximativ 50 de militari. Se așteaptă ca militarii să participe la proiect din al doilea trimestru al anului 2026 până la sfârșitul anului 2027. Purtătorul de cuvânt a subliniat că nu este necesară aprobarea parlamentară pentru desfășurare, deoarece „nu există niciun pericol imediat pentru soldați din cauza conflictelor militare”. Deși numărul militarilor germani care ajută la efortul de apărare al Poloniei este mic, simbolistica este importantă. Gestul este menit să arate Rusiei că europenii iau amenințările în serios și că sunt uniți în fața acestora. Anunțul de la Berlin vine după ce cancelarul Friedrich Merz a avertizat că Vladimir Putin va continua războiul, dacă Ucraina va cădea. Într-un discurs ținut sâmbătă, la o conferință a Uniunii Creștin-Sociale din Bavaria, el l-a comparat pe președintele rus Vladimir Putin cu Adolf Hitler. „Așa cum Sudeții nu au fost suficienți în 1938, Putin nu se va opri”, a spus Merz, referindu-se teritoriul Cehoslovaciei pe care aliații i l-au cedat liderului nazist prin acordul de la Munchen. De asemenea, într-o conferință desfășurată joi la Berlin, secretarul general al NATO, Mark Rutte, a avertizat statele membre ale alianței în privința amenințării Rusiei și a cerut cheltuieli mai mari pentru apărare, inclusiv ca reacție la noua strategie de securitate a SUA. „Noi suntem următoarea țintă a Rusiei. Și suntem deja în pericol”, a declarat Rutte la Berlin. Într-un discurs cu accente sumbre, el a spus că trebuie să ne pregătim ”pentru un război de amploarea celui pe care l-au îndurat bunicii și străbunicii noștri.” Să mai amintim că, de la invazia pe scară largă declanșată de Rusia în 2022, Varșovia a susținut cu fermitate Kievul și a fost o rută de tranzit pentru armele furnizate de aliații occidentali ai Ucrainei. La rândul ei, Germania este al doilea cel mai mare furnizor de ajutor militar al Ucrainei după Statele Unite. Berlinul a trimis Kievului o cantitate imensă de echipamente, de la sisteme de apărare aeriană la vehicule blindate. După instalatrea președintelui Donald Trump la Casa Albă, Uniunea Europeană și-a asumat singură susținerea financiară pentru Urcaina, inclusiv prin cumpărarea de echipamente militare din Statele Unite.

Mike Zlotnik - Tempo Funding On Investment Advice: "At the end of the day the best risk mitigation strategy is prudent diversification." Investing in real estate is often thought to be a great place to grow your wealth. But often investors have other things going on and they don't want to deal with tenants, paperwork, searching out properties and all of the headaches that come with doing your own real estate investing. What if there were a way to invest in real estate in other ways? Investing in the loans other people have on real estate, or investing with a group and getting into large commercial properties with leases that run decades long? Mike Zlotnik started Tempo Funding to help investors grow their money with real estate, without needing to get their hands dirty. He shares his journey in the tech world to discovering the power of passive real estate investing, buying his first apartment in Brooklyn back in 2000, and growing into large-scale commercial projects like industrial facilities and open-air shopping centers. He explains Tempo Funding's focus on marrying “money and opportunity,” helping individuals, often those who have exited businesses or cashed in on appreciated assets, find reliable income streams backed by real estate. Listen as Mike explains his real estate investing strategies and how they may work for you. Enjoy!

I was doing well, but I was a little burned out. I spent almost 15 years in technology. I had great friends. I liked it. Technology. Felt like I wanted something that I really didn't have to work all the time, something that I can make investment decisions and the money could work for me. So I discovered real estate passively in year 2000, buying my first apartment in Brooklyn. Mike Zlotnik [00:00:25]: And then I continued to buy more and passively.

And today we're welcoming Slash, preparing to learn from Mike Zlotnick of Temple Funding. That's TF Management Group. Is that safe to say, Mike? Mike Zlotnik [00:01:01]: Yeah, yeah, but the easier way, people call me Big Mike. I am six four. So Big Mike. James Kademan [00:01:05]: Well, you can't tell on the screen, so. All right, that is a. That's a Big Mike. Big Mike, indeed. So, Big Mike, what is Tempo funding? Mike Zlotnik [00:01:15]: We are the best way to describe Tempo funding. We marry money and opportunity. We are a platform for folks with capital to invest, typically in real estate, kind of. I don't want to call myself exactly one trick pony, but I am mostly one trick pony. It's real estate. We have a team, we have organization that focuses real estate projects, industrial, open air shopping, multifamily, et cetera. James Kademan [00:01:42]: Okay. Mike Zlotnik [00:01:42]: And then we have folks with capital who sold businesses, they've sold highly appreciated stock, they sold bitcoin, whatever, they made their money and then now they're looking for steady, predictable income. And that's what we try to bring them. That's kind of what we do for many, many years. James Kademan [00:02:01]: You mentioned steady predictable income. And can you elaborate on that? Because sometimes in the real estate world that's not always the case. Mike Zlotnik [00:02:08]: Yeah, so today the world's changed quite a bit and we really gravitated towards predictability. I literally have an article that I wrote and a video comparing high IRRs versus predictability. Wide majority of people, especially with monetary event where they've got significant lump sum, they're looking for predictability. So what is predictability? So normally it means the assets themselves have a great engine, how they generate predictable income. Take an example, triple net industrial. This is just a simple way to explain. It's right before the call we were talking about made in China versus made in America. Well, there's a renaissance now to build in America. Mike Zlotnik [00:02:50]: Made in America and industrial production in America is welcome. So quite often there are companies that manufacture here and the real estate underneath it gets sold by the owner of the business. They sell the real estate, lease back and stay in that property. So where does predictability come from? Well, that business has been there for 60 years. They sell real estate, they use capital for further investment or to pay their parent company and then it's a mission critical property. And to make long story short, they're there, they have a 20, 25 year lease and it's triple net, meaning that all the expenses, taxes, insurance, everything else is covered by the tenant. So as a landlord you collect rent and every year it goes up between 2 to 3%. So you have high predictability of outcome simply because it's contractually guaranteed with a credit quality tenant with long term lease, with rent escalation clauses, with triple net structure. Mike Zlotnik [00:03:50]: So you're collecting this, you're an equity investor, but you're collecting it like a bond. You get your coupon today, this year. So what does that coupon look like? For example, year one you could start with 7%, maybe even higher. And year two goes up, and year three, it goes up. So it begins to look like a predictable investment because it's so contractually built to be predictable. So you know, initial cash flow, you know, year two cash flow, year three, year four, year five. And then that increased NOI drives forced appreciation. Because in commercial real estate, the price of the asset is a function of net operating income. Mike Zlotnik [00:04:24]: You hear these fancy terms, cap rates. All the cap rates describe is what do you pay per dollar of income. The lower the cap rate, the higher the price per dollar of income. So as interest rates obviously impact cap rates, but in general, the structure itself grows. Niy, if interest rates don't do anything, they stay flat. You're still growing the value of the asset because the NOI is growing. That's a predictable structure. You see these structures in real estate quite a bit. Mike Zlotnik [00:04:50]: And I'll shut up for a second, let you chime in more questions because I can talk on this probably for hours. James Kademan [00:04:55]: No, that's awesome. That's awesome. It's interesting you mentioned real estate that's essentially large scale commercial. It sounds like you're talking manufacturing. Yes, this isn't just the small mom. Mike Zlotnik [00:05:06]: And pop house, it is a manufacturing facility quite often gets bought for $25 million. There are of course bigger projects, but the sweet spot is anywhere from, you know, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, $30 million small manufacturing. I'm not talking about AI data centers that are getting built for a billion dollars, not, not for that. James Kademan [00:05:29]: Okay. I guess, I think as you're talking here, I'm thinking south of me on the north way north of Chicago is Belvedere, Illinois, which has a car manufacturing plant that I think since I've been driving to and from Chicago every once in a while, I want to say that thing has changed hands four or five times. And that thing, that property, I don't know if it's necessarily one building, but that complex, it's probably the size of a small city. Sorry, it sounds like you're getting into stuff that big. Mike Zlotnik [00:06:04]: Not that big, but an example, we do have an asset in New Castle, Indiana, again, Midwest. And it's a, you know, it's called $25 million asset. It is a multi acre property and it produces stainless steel and it's been in that business and that location over 60 years. So that kind of a facility. All right, not a small city, but for that local town, it's a significant manufacturer and industrial facility. James Kademan [00:06:32]: Oh, I bet it's huge. And for something like that. Do you. I mentioned the equipment goes with the building. Just because it took so much to get that equipment in there, it's like an old pool table. To get it out is a big deal. Mike Zlotnik [00:06:45]: They end not moving so effectively you own real estate as an investor, but they've made so many tenant improvements themselves over the years for their own business, plus all the equipment, everything else. They're going to stay there, they're going to continue to.

La pronuncia italiana rappresenta uno degli aspetti più affascinanti e al tempo stesso una sfida per chi studia la lingua di Dante. Spesso gli studenti si chiedono: "Devo eliminare completamente il mio accento?" La risposta è semplice: gli accenti sono belli e naturali. In questa guida completa, però, scoprirai tecniche pratiche e immediate per perfezionare la tua pronuncia italiana, dalla gestione delle doppie consonanti alle particolarità delle parole straniere adattate alla nostra lingua. Guida Completa alla Pronuncia Italiana: Consigli Pratici per Parlare come un Nativo La Regola d'Oro: Pronunciare Tutte le Lettere Il primo e più importante consiglio per migliorare istantaneamente la tua pronuncia italiana è semplice ma fondamentale: pronuncia tutte le lettere. A differenza di molte lingue, l'italiano non presenta suoni silenziosi (eccetto la H iniziale che è sempre muta). Ogni singola lettera scritta deve essere articolata con chiarezza. Prendiamo alcuni esempi pratici: Giardino: si pronuncia GIAR-DI-NO, con ogni sillaba ben distinta Finestra: FI-NE-STRA, senza mai "mangiare" le lettere finali Ombrello: OM-BREL-LO, prestando particolare attenzione alla parte finale Particolarmente importante è la pronuncia delle vocali consecutive, che rappresentano una sfida per molti studenti. In italiano, anche quando ci sono più vocali di seguito, ognuna mantiene il suo suono distintivo: Paura: PA-U-RA (tre sillabe distinte, non "pàra") Tuoi: TU-O-I (tre sillabe complete) Aiuola: A-IU-O-LA (quattro sillabe ben separate) Questo principio si applica anche alle parole più lunghe e complesse. Per esempio, in "acquario" (AC-QUA-RI-O) ogni lettera deve risuonare chiaramente, creando quella musicalità tipica della lingua italiana. Esercitarsi a scandire lentamente le parole, sillaba per sillaba, aiuta a sviluppare questa consapevolezza articolatoria che poi diventerà naturale anche nel parlato veloce. Le Doppie Consonanti: Il Cuore della Pronuncia Italiana Le doppie consonanti rappresentano probabilmente l'aspetto più caratteristico e distintivo della pronuncia italiana. La loro corretta esecuzione è cruciale perché sbagliare una doppia può cambiare completamente il significato di una parola, creando situazioni imbarazzanti o fraintendimenti. Il segreto tecnico per pronunciare correttamente le doppie è questo: rendi più corta la vocale che precede la doppia consonante. La consonante doppia stessa deve essere "tenuta" più a lungo, creando una breve pausa nella pronuncia. Coppie di Parole che Cambiano Significato Analizziamo alcune coppie di parole dove l'unica differenza sta nella doppia consonante: Consonante SempliceSignificatoConsonante DoppiaSignificatoCaro (cáro - A lunga)Costoso o amatoCarro (càrro - A corta)Veicolo con ruotePala (pála - A lunga)Attrezzo per scavarePalla (pàlla - A corta)Oggetto sfericoPene (péne - E lunga)Dolore, sofferenzaPenne (pènne - E corta)Tipo di pastaPapa (pápa - A lunga)Il padrePappa (pàppa - A corta)Cibo per bambiniSete (séte - E lunga)Bisogno di bereSette (sètte - E corta)Il numero 7Nono (nóno - O lunga)Nono di numeroNonno (nònno - O corta)Padre dei genitori Come potete vedere dalla tabella, un errore di pronuncia può trasformare "Mi piacciono le penne al pomodoro" in una frase piuttosto imbarazzante! Ecco perché prestare attenzione alle doppie è fondamentale non solo per l'accuratezza fonetica, ma anche per evitare malintesi. Le Doppie nei Verbi: Futuro vs Condizionale Le doppie consonanti sono particolarmente importanti nella coniugazione verbale, dove distinguono tempi diversi. Un esempio classico è la differenza tra futuro e condizionale presente della prima persona plurale: Noi partiremo (partirémo - I lunga) = Futuro semplice, indica un'azione che avverrà Noi partiremmo (partirèmmo - I corta) = Condizionale presente, indica un'ipotesi Altri esempi verbali significativi: "Andremo" (futuro) vs "Andremmo" (condizionale) "Vedremo" (futuro) vs "Vedremmo" (condizionale) "Usciremo" (futuro) vs "Usciremmo" (condizionale) Per padroneggiare le doppie, è utile esercitarsi regolarmente con coppie minime (parole che differiscono solo per un suono). Registra te stesso pronunciando queste coppie e confronta con parlanti nativi. Con il tempo e la pratica costante, la corretta esecuzione delle doppie diventerà automatica e naturale. La N Finale di NON, IN, CON: La Regola della Trasformazione Esiste una regola fonetica fondamentale ma spesso trascurata che riguarda le parole NON, IN e CON. Quando queste parole sono seguite da una parola che inizia con B (come Bologna) o P, la N finale si trasforma in M per facilitare la pronuncia e rendere il discorso più fluido. Questa trasformazione, chiamata assimilazione consonantica, avviene perché pronunciare una N seguita immediatamente da una B o P richiede uno sforzo articolatorio innaturale. La bocca, infatti, deve passare rapidamente da una posizione nasale (N) a una posizione bilabiale (B o P), e questo passaggio è molto più facile se anche la consonante nasale diventa bilabiale (M). Esempi Pratici della Trasformazione N → M Scrittura StandardPronuncia CorrettaSpiegazioneIo non parlo moltoIo nom parlo moltoNON + P diventa NOMAbito in periferiaAbito im periferiaIN + P diventa IMVengo con BarbaraVengo com BarbaraCON + B diventa COMNon bevo caffèNom bevo caffèNON + B diventa NOMLavoro in bancaLavoro im bancaIN + B diventa IMStudio con PaoloStudio com PaoloCON + P diventa COM Provate a pronunciare queste frasi ad alta voce: noterete immediatamente che la versione con la M suona molto più naturale e fluida rispetto a quella con la N. Questa è una delle caratteristiche che distingue un parlante nativo da uno studente, perché i nativi applicano questa regola istintivamente, senza pensarci. È importante sottolineare che questa è una regola puramente fonetica: nella scrittura formale si continua a usare la N, ma nella pronuncia effettiva la trasformazione in M è la norma tra i parlanti nativi. Applicare questa regola renderà il vostro italiano più naturale e scorrevole, e soprattutto più facile da pronunciare. I Pronomi Doppi: Dove Cade l'Accento? I pronomi doppi (combinazioni di pronomi come "te lo", "gliela", "ce li", "ve ne") rappresentano una sfida particolare non tanto per la loro pronuncia, quanto per la posizione dell'accento tonico, specialmente quando sono attaccati all'imperativo. Quando i pronomi doppi sono usati con forme verbali normali (indicativo, congiuntivo, ecc.), rimangono separati dal verbo e non creano problemi particolari: "Te lo regalo" - tre parole separate "Gliela mando" - due parole separate "Ce li portano" - tre parole separate Il problema sorge con l'imperativo, perché in questo caso i pronomi si attaccano alla fine del verbo formando un'unica parola. Ed è qui che molti studenti commettono l'errore di spostare l'accento sui pronomi. La Regola dell'Accento Immutabile La regola fondamentale è questa: l'accento rimane sempre sulla stessa sillaba del verbo, indipendentemente da quanti pronomi aggiungiamo alla fine. Non importa se aggiungiamo uno, due o anche tre pronomi: la posizione dell'accento non cambia mai. Imperativo BaseCon PronomiPronuncia CorrettaErrore ComuneDàmmiDàmmeloAccento su DA❌ DamméloRaccontamiRaccontàmeloAccento su TA❌ RaccontaméloCómpraCòmprateloAccento su COM❌ CompratéloScrìviScrìvigliAccento su VI❌ ScrivígliPòrtaPòrtaglieloAccento su POR❌ PortagliéloDìciDìcimeloAccento su DI❌ Dicimélo Un caso particolarmente interessante è il verbo riflessivo "andarsene" con i pronomi: "Vàttene!" (vai via). Anche qui l'accento rimane sul verbo: VÀttene, non Vatténe. E quando aggiungiamo ancora più complessità: "Andàndosene" (gerundio), l'accento resta su ANDAN. Questo principio vale anche per forme più complesse come: "Rèstituiscimelo" (accento su STI, non su CI o ME) "Pòrtagliene" (accento su POR) "Spiègatecela" (accento su GA) Per padroneggiare questa regola, esercitati prima pronunciando il verbo da solo, individuando dove cade l'accento naturalmente. Poi aggiungi i pronomi mantenendo l'accento esattamente nello stesso punto. Con la pratica, questa diventerà un'abitudine naturale e il tuo italiano suonerà immediatamente più autentico. Il Suono Z: Sorda o Sonora? La lettera Z italiana rappresenta una delle sfide più insidiose per gli studenti stranieri perché, a differenza di molte altre lingue, in italiano la Z ha due pronunce completamente diverse: la Z sorda e la Z sonora. E purtroppo non esiste una regola fissa universale per sapere quale usare! La Z Sorda (come TS) La Z sorda si pronuncia come i suoni "T" e "S" pronunciati rapidamente insieme, come se fossero un'unica consonante. È il suono che sentite in parole come "pizza" - che non si pronuncia "piza" ma "pitsa". Esempi di parole con Z sorda: Zucchero (tsucchero) - lo zucchero che metti nel caffè Grazie (gratsie) - la parola di ringraziamento più usata Pazzo (patso) - aggettivo che indica follia Stazione (statsione) - dove arrivano treni e autobus Azione (atsione) - un'attività o un movimento Pezzo (petso) - una parte di qualcosa Piazza (piatsa) - lo spazio pubblico aperto Tazza (tatsa) - il contenitore per il caffè La Z Sonora (come DS) La Z sonora si pronuncia come i suoni "D" e "S" pronunciati insieme velocemente. È il suono di "zero", che non si pronuncia "tsero" ma "dsero". Esempi di parole con Z sonora: Zaino (dsaino) - la borsa per la scuola Romanzo (romandso) - un libro narrativo lungo Mezzo (medso) - metà o veicolo di trasporto Azzurro (adsurro) - il colore blu chiaro Zanzara (dsandsara) - l'insetto fastidioso Zona (dsona) - un'area o territorio Pranzo (prandso) - il pasto di mezzogiorno Linee Guida (Non Regole Assolute) Anche se non esistono regole ferree,

Jeff Rosenberg brings a multi-generation perspective to open-air, retail shopping centers, a sector most investors once wrote off. His family built and operated supermarkets and the centers around them starting in the 1940s. Big V Property Group grew out of that platform and today controls a $2.5 billion, 9 million square foot national portfolio of open-air shopping centers anchored by the likes of Target, TJX brands, Ross, HomeGoods, Sierra Trading, and others. That background matters: Big V understands how retailers actually make money, how store-level performance drives traffic, and why certain locations survive every cycle. A few insights stood out in our conversation: • Physical retail never died (online shopping, Covid etc) it evolved. Retailers now use stores as omnichannel infrastructure: showroom, warehouse, and last-mile all at once. • Power-center retail is effectively an ecosystem. A Target anchor drives demographic analysis, infrastructure improvements, credit co-tenancy, and consistent foot traffic for the rest of the center. • Supply discipline is doing the heavy lifting. Two decades of minimal development plus 96–97% occupancy make today's retail fundamentally different from overbuilt asset classes. • Lenders are leaning back in. Big V recently rolled eight core assets, about $1.1 billion, into a single fund and closed a $765 million on-balance-sheet bank loan, the largest retail financing in the country in 2025. • Underwriting today requires humility. Big V assumes no cap-rate compression. All value has to come from NOI growth and execution, not financial engineering. Here are five questions we covered: Why did retail survive when everyone predicted structural decline? How does a Target anchor change a center's economics? What does today's capital stack look like for high-quality retail? How do you underwrite exits when cap-rate compression is off the table? Where are the real risks in a sector that looks "safe" on the surface? If you want a grounded view of where the next leg of the retail cycle is heading and how an operator with a decades-long track record has never lost investor capital, this conversation is worth your time. *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.

Keith reviews the state of the real estate market, noting that existing home sales are down about 33% from their 2021 peak, while prices remain firm due to low supply and high demand. Affordability challenges are driven by stagnant wages, inflation, and higher mortgage rates, with 70% of mortgage holders still locked in at rates below 5%. He observes that in certain markets, new construction may now offer better investor terms than comparable existing properties, especially where builders buy down rates. The episode highlights a comparison of nearly a century of asset class returns, reporting real estate's long-term annual appreciation at approximately 4.7%.

This is get rich education. Keith Weinhold 1:34 Welcome to GRE from Kennebunkport, Maine to Bridgeport, Connecticut and across 188 nations worldwide. It is the voice of real estate investing since 2014 I'm Keith Weinhold, and I'm grateful to have you here with me, and we're doing something a little different today, as you'll soon listen in to me as I was on the hot seat being interviewed on another prominent real estate show. But first, when you pull back and ask yourself, why you're really an investor in the first place? There are so many reasons. Maybe you just want a few properties in order to supplement your day job income. Maybe you want to have more than a few so that you can completely replace that active income, or perhaps rather than going the route of building up your cash flow, which is valid, but some think that it's the only way to real estate financial freedom. Instead, you could own, say, nine doors or 22 doors, and even if they all had zero cash flow, you can just keep borrowing against that leverage and equity tax free and live off of that whatever you do when it comes to your day job, income, your degree of disdain for your nine to five job that is going to be greater or less than it is for some others. So your motivation for self improvement, it isn't always about what you're running to in life, which could be real estate investing, but it's also what you're running away from, especially if you don't get a deeply rooted sense of meaning from your job. So you could have both a push factor and a pull factor in what motivates you. There's a scene from the 1999 movie Office Space that just does this incredibly unvarnished job of saying out loud how so many of us feel today. What I'm going to share with you, I mean, you know that you have felt this at least once in your life. Office space wasn't supposed to be a mega hit movie, but it kind of was, because it's so relatable. Let's listen in to part of this clip. This is Ron Livingston playing a disgruntled male employee talking to Jennifer Aniston at a restaurant about his job in the movie Office Space. Speaker 1 4:09 I don't like my job, and I don't think I'm gonna go anymore. You're just not gonna go. Yeah, won't you get fired? I don't know, but I really don't like it, and I'm not gonna go. Keith Weinhold 4:24 Then it continues when she asks. So you're just gonna quit? No, not really. I'm just gonna stop going. When did you decide all of that? About an hour ago? Really? Yeah, aren't you going to get another job? I don't think I'd like another job. What are you going to do about money in bills and all that? I've never really liked paying bills. I don't think I'm going to do that either. Keith Weinhold 4:53 That's it. That is the end of that classic dialog from office space that we can. All relate to you did not wake up to be mediocre, but a lot of people's jobs pummel them into a rather prosaic state. You were born rich because you were born with this abundance of choices, this huge palette in menu, but society often stifles that and makes you forget it, and it gets really easy to just fall into your groove and stay there. The main reason we aren't living our dreams is really because we're living our fears. Failure doesn't actually destroy as many dreams as people think fear and doubt. Does fear and doubt destroy more dreams than failure ever does financial runway? That is a phrase for the amount of time that you can maintain your lifestyle without the need for a paycheck. And it's critical for you to lengthen this runway if you hope to retire early, and it will dramatically reduce your stress level. An example is say that you currently earn 150k per year after taxes, and you spend 126k of that, all right. Well, that means you've got a surplus of 24k a year. Well, it's going to take you a little over five years to accumulate that 126k that you need to annually support your lifestyle. That's what happens if you don't invest. And see investing helps you lengthen your financial runway, that amount of time you can maintain your lifestyle without the need for a paycheck. That's what we're talking about here. Last week I brought you the show from Caesar's Palace in the center of the Las Vegas Strip. So therefore, what I've done is I have gone from the ostentatious and flamboyant over here to the familial and simple as this week I'm in Buffalo New York, broadcasting from a somewhat makeshift GRE studio here, the Buffalo Bills had a home game yesterday, so the city and hotels are busier than usual. Next week, I will bring you the show from upstate Pennsylvania, as I'm traveling to see my family. Let's listen in to me on the hot seat. I was recently a guest on Kevin bups long running real estate investing show. You're going to get to see how I present information and GRE principles for the first time to a different audience. And as I do, you're going to hear me provide new material, but you'll also hear me say quite a few things that I have told you before, even then, the concepts might land differently when I'm explaining them to a new audience. The show is based in Florida, so We'll also touch on the real estate pain and opportunity there. After I'm interviewed, I'm going to come back and tell you about something fascinating. I'm going to compare the returns from six major asset classes over the past century, since 1930 anyway, and that's going to include the first time on the show where I'll tell you real estate's annual appreciation rate over the last entire century. Just about what do you think it is? 8% 5% 3% you're gonna have, perhaps the best answer you've ever had. Here we go. Kevin Bupp 8:31 Now, guys, I want to welcome back a guest that we've had on. It's been a number of years now. Keith Weinhold, I went back to look at the last episode we had him on. I think it's been about four years. So, you know, four years ago, the world was in the very different state. It was a very different time. And so, you know, thankfully, we're out of the covid era and on to newer and greater things. So for those that don't know Keith, he's the founder of get rich education. He's the host of the popular get rich education podcast. He's a longtime thought leader in the real estate investing space, and like myself. Keith was also born and raised in Pennsylvania. For those that know don't know, I was born and raised in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Keith, I believe, a couple hours away from where I was. But Keith has very much a unique perspective on wealth, building debt, and really the housing market as a whole. And today, you know, we'll be diving into everything you know, from why the property itself? This is something that Keith kind of coins, why the property itself is less important than you think, to how the housing crash has already happened in a way that most people don't even realize, to the role inflation and debt play in building long term wealth. And so again, it's been a number of years here, so I'm excited to welcome Keith back here. So my friend, Keith, welcome to the show. It's it's a pleasure to have you back here again, my friend. Keith Weinhold 9:43 Oh, Kevin, it's good to be here and be in the auspices of another fellow native Pennsylvanian as well. Kevin Bupp 9:49 That's right, that's right, yeah, no, Pa is rocking and rolling as I think I told you this little, this little tidbit last time everyone, every time I speak with someone from Pennsylvania, they never know this. But I'm going to share this fun fact. Are you already know, Keith. I'm gonna share it with the rest of the listeners here today, Pennsylvania, those that are born and raised there. It's the only state where, if you're from Pennsylvania, you refer to it by its initials, and you assume that everyone else, everywhere else across the country, they know what you're talking about when you say I'm from PA and that's the only state that does that. So I think it's pretty neat. Keith Weinhold 10:19 That's right. No one else does that. No one else says, I'm from TN, if they're from Memphis, right? Kevin Bupp 10:24 They don't, they don't. So with that, my friend. So, you know, it's, again, it's been a number of years since we, since we had you last on here, you know, let's start with just, let's back up a little bit. You know, what have you been up to? I mean, what, what have the last few years look like for you? Where have you been spending your time, energy and efforts? Obviously, it's, you know, we've gone through some quite a bit of turmoil over the last five years, and would love to just get an update as to what's going on your life. Speaker 2 10:48 Well, one of the big words in real estate investing, we all know it, even the person that cuts your hair and cleans your teeth knows it, and that's affordability. You know, really, affordability has been under fire, under pressure. By a lot of measures, we have the worst affordability for home buying since the early 80s, when the Jeffersons was on television. So it's been helping a lot of people deal with that. It's really the effect of three things, general inflation, higher home prices and higher mortgage rates. Really, those three things the crux of the problem. It's not exactly inflation, really. It's the fact that over the long term, wages don't keep up with inflation. And really that's the crux of the affordability problem. So I've been helping people deal with that and put that in perspective, really, Kevin, Kevin Bupp 11:42 what does that mean for, you know, investment, real estate? I mean, are you still still doing deals? Are you seeing deals still get done by your students? I mean, what? What's your world look like? Keith Weinhold 11:52 Yeah. I mean, I think you're asking, you know, how many deals are taking place? One way to measure that on a national basis is existing home sales. You know, existing home sales have been down substantially. And when a lot of people hear that, they think, prices, oh no, we're not talking about prices. We're talking about existing home sales. That means sales volume. That means the amount of overall transactions. So to give an idea of a real estate market, a residential one that's become pretty lethargic and not very vibrant, is that sales volume. It had its recent peak of about 6 million home sales back in 2021 I mean, 2021 was crazy, kind of the crux of the pandemic, you know, Kevin, that's when for an open house. You saw cars wrapped around the block for just one open house. Okay, well, that year 2021 there were 6 million existing home sales. Today, we're on pace to do about 4 million, and we also did only about 4 million last year. So if you put that in perspective and think about what that means, prices have stayed stable, but that's a 33% reduction in transactions. So investors, you know, people like you and I, Kevin, we're not as affected by this as some other industries. But think about the mortgage loan industry. If you're doing 33% fewer transactions, think about the hard decisions companies have to make and lay people off. 33% fewer transactions for title companies. It's probably close to 33% fewer transactions for furniture companies as well. So really it's both affordability that's been a problem, and that's led to this relative lethargy, kind of a slow, not very interesting residential real estate market, at least from the transaction perspective, really, really slow. Kevin Bupp 13:58 But Could, could one not argue, I don't know the data points. Keith, I guess, what did it look like? 2021? Was kind of the peak. I think you'd reference 6 million units a year. Transactionally, what did it look like prior? What, what was, what was a more normal year like? And maybe 2020, wasn't a normal year either, right? Because a lot of folks thought the role was ending for a period of time. You know, 2019 maybe just again, trying to, trying to find maybe a better baseline to use. And then, you know, does, I guess, in my mind, and I don't follow these data points as much as you do, is that maybe 2021, was, you know, somewhat artificial inflation, right? Lots of lots of money pumping into the marketplace. And ultimately, we had to get back to a sense of normalcy at some point in time. And so are we at a at a place of normalcy? Are we still behind the eight ball a little bit? Keith Weinhold 14:44 We're still behind the eight ball a little bit. 5 million is more of a normal long term number. But yeah, I mean, if we've got 4 million now, that's, you know, 25% less still than 5 million, sort of this long term normalcy rate of existing. Home transactions. And if you're a careful listener, you notice I've been using the word existing that doesn't include new build. So you know, when you the listener out there reading headlines, always look at that closely. We talking about existing? Are we talking about new build? You can learn a lot from that when you introduce new build data that introduces an awful lot of noise. For example, even when we look at prices, sometimes we want to exclude new construction. So why is that? Why do we want to focus on existing a lot? Well, because new build can introduce a lot of aberrations to the market. For example, the size of new build properties has dropped substantially the past few years, again, coming back to the central theme of affordability to help make a home more affordable. So we're not looking at same same when the square footage of a property drops a lot. And also, another thing that's been happening as a response to the lack of affordability is you have more builders building further and further out from a central business district where there are lower land costs for that new build property as well to help meet affordability. So the takeaway is, yeah, we want to be careful when we look at numbers. Are we looking at existing? Are we looking at new? Are we looking at overall properties. Kevin Bupp 16:22 If you believe that if rates come down, we really is that the is that the lever that has to be pulled in order for that transactional volume to kick back up and, you know, make homes more affordable for the average home buyer, Keith Weinhold 16:34 yeah, it's certainly going to help. I mean, really lower rates is the most likely significant lever that can help with the affordability crisis. Prices are pretty firm. Home prices are up 2% year over year. It's difficult for home prices to fall. In fact, home prices have only fallen one time substantially since World War Two. A lot of people don't realize that. So home prices are firm. I expect them to stay firm. And then the other lever is if we get a huge surge in wage increases, which I really don't expect anytime soon, unless we have another really big bout of inflation. So to your point, yes, lower mortgage rates like, that's the biggest lever that can help affordability return. And to speak to mortgage rates, Kevin and help put all of this into perspective, including this affordability component, is the fact that today, mortgage rates are low, and that gives a lot of people pause. They're like, What are you talking about? Mortgage rates were 3% even as low as two point some percent, just as recently as 2021 and early 2022 What are you talking about? Like, mortgage rates are 2x to 3x that today we look at a long term perspective when we look at the arc of mortgage rates, instead of in setting up expectations where we think rates could go. And we need to look at a frame of reference. Mortgage rates peaked over 18% in 1981 that's if you had a good credit score and everything on a 30 year fixed rate mortgage. That's what we're talking about here. In fact, Freddie Mac, they're the ones that have the best, most reliable stat set for mortgage rates, and that goes back to 1971 the average mortgage rate since 1971 all the way up to today, through all these presidential administrations you know, Nixon and in the Reagan years, and Clinton and the bushes and Obama, everything You know up to today, from 1971 until today, the average 30 year fixed rate mortgage is 7.7% so that's why I talk about how mortgage rates are, you know, moderate to a little low today. That takes a lot of people back. I don't see any impetus. It's going to get us back to, say, 3% mortgage rates. So some real perspective here. Kevin Bupp 19:06 Yeah, yeah, no. And, you know, the interesting thing again, you might have data points on this to see, is a lot of the lack, do you feel that a lot of the lack of transactional volume is also related to those folks that have locked in, you know, 3% you know, mortgages, right? Like they're they, why would they sell and ultimately trade into a, maybe a, you know, a, you know, upgrade of a home, but ultimately be paying significantly more than that of what they're paying at the present time, you know, double the cost of capital. Your rates today, 30 year, rates are where the six and a half, 7% range, I don't follow it, but yeah. Keith Weinhold 19:42 I mean, as of today, 6.3% is is where they're at. But yeah, you have a lot of those homeowners locked in to low rates. I mean, first, if we just pull back and look at the overall homeowner landscape, four in 10 have a paid off property. So just to talk to those about the other. Or 60% that percentage that are mortgage borrowers, among borrowers, 70% still have a mortgage rate under 5% meaning it starts with a four or less. So yeah, you're bringing up astutely Kevin the lock. In effect, people are reluctant to sell and give up that rate to trade it for a higher rate. And here's what's interesting, a lot of people if they couldn't make the payments on their home and say they lost their home, something that actually happened a lot in 2008 when people were locked into in sustainable mortgages because they didn't have good credit and they didn't have good income, the borrower is in good shape today. But even if, for some reason, they couldn't make the payments on their home, and they lost their home and they had to rent. Rents are actually higher in many cases, than what that mortgage principal and interest payment is. Maybe even the mortgage principal interest, taxes and insurance that they pay today are lower than what comparable rent would be, and this helps stabilize the housing market, people are really motivated to make their payments, and they can easily do it when it is so low, speaking to that lock in effect, and we're bringing up another reason now why transaction volume is so low, that lock in effect. So homeowners are in good shape. Their payments are sustainable. They don't want to sell, and they're just staying put. They're staying in place Kevin Bupp 19:42 tying that all back around. Keith, what does that mean for us real estate investors? I mean, is there still good value out in the marketplace? I mean, is the rent to value ratio still, you know, Is there good opportunity to be had, as far as ROI for an investor that wants to buy into a residential investment or a multifamily investment, or anything related to that of residential housing? Keith Weinhold 19:42 Well, the deals in the one to four unit space, single family homes up the four Plex buildings, yeah, just are not as good as they used to be. The ratio of rent income to purchase price is lower than it was five years ago. And that's so simple, but that's just really the simplest formula for profitability for a real estate investor, you don't have to look at cap rate or or NOI in the one to four unit space. Let's just look at that ratio of rent income to purchase price. 20 years ago, it was easy to find a full 1% meaning, on a 200k property, you could get $2,000 worth of rent income. That's that 1% ratio. But now oftentimes you've got to find something that's more like seven tenths of 1% that would be a $1,400 rent on a 200k property. So that simple formula, and I love that, the rent income divided by the purchase price when I'm looking at properties, when I'm scrolling or scanning like that's a calculation you can do in your head. It's only if I would see a ratio that appears really good, oh, that I would like drill down and look at that property more closely. So of course, when you have something that is that simple, though, rent income divided by purchase price, there's a lot of things that doesn't tell you. You know, what kind of mortgage interest rate can you get? What kind of property tax Do you pay in that jurisdiction? But really, I love the simplicity. That's it, rent divided by price, but it has been under attack. Now today, I still don't know where you're going to get a better risk adjusted return than you do with a carefully bought income property with a loan. I've always liked fixed interest rate debt the best risk adjusted return anywhere. I really don't know of a better one than with buying real estate, because real estate investors have so many profit centers, five simultaneous profit centers, which few people understand. Yeah. Kevin Bupp 19:42 So using that, I want to, I want to unpack the the 1% rule a little bit for those that aren't familiar with it. And again, there's a lot of variables there, as you had mentioned, you know, mortgage rate, taxes, insurance and that respective market that you that you're buying in, and so what? What are you really trying to back into when applying that rule? Is there? Is there? Is there a true cash on cash return that you're hoping to achieve, again, assuming all these other variables that we just don't know, what they are at this point, you know? Is there a target range of actual ROI that you're actually looking to achieve when applying that 1% rule? Keith Weinhold 19:42 No, I'm just looking for any positive cash flow. You know, to your point, yeah, there's nothing like the cash on cash return needs to be at least three and a half percent or something like that. But, yeah, I still like buying a property that's that's greater than a break even. Inflation is probably going to increase your cash flow over time, even if you bought a property that that broke even or just had a trickle of cash flow or a $100 cash flow today, a lot of people don't understand that fact that right there you can't count on it, you shouldn't count on. Getting rent increases. But we all know it generally happens over time at a rate of about 3% a year, but it actually increases your cash flow. If you increase your rent 5% your cash flow can often increase something like 12% why is that? How could that happen? That's because, you know, it's key for the person that was listening closely, you get fixed interest rate debt, so your rent income goes up, your expenses increase, except for that mortgage principal and interest. Inflation can touch it. It's kind of like a mosquito buzzing against a window and always trying to get in. And inflation can't touch that in a way. It's sort of like debt that's an asset in some unusual way, or some play on words, getting that debt so So yes, you can't count on rent increases over time. We know what typically happens, and that's really part of the compelling value proposition of buying income property with a loan. You're sort of leveraging inflation. You're really on the right side of it. Kevin Bupp 20:08 Are there any particular markets that you feel are ripe for opportunity today where you're spending your focus and energies in? Keith Weinhold 20:08 Yeah, it's still in high cash flowing markets like Memphis, okay, little rock and a good part of the Midwest and the Midwest still has home prices appreciating faster than the national average as well. So those are some of the areas that I like. Those jurisdictions also tend to have laws, as your listeners might know this already, Kevin, they tend to have laws that benefit the landlord more so than the tenant, where you can get a prompt eviction, but those are still the areas where you do get that high ratio of rent income to purchase price on a single family rental home, you might still find eight tenths of 1% meaning $800 worth of rent for every 100k of property purchase in places exactly like that. Kevin Bupp 20:08 I was hoping that you tell me 1% rule would is applicable. Keith Weinhold 20:08 It's pretty rare. You know, if you do see, if you do see a property that has a full 1% rent to purchase price ratio, it could be in a sketchy area, you need to make sure that you can actually get the rent in like you would get a respectful rent paying tenant in there. That's something that we would have to look at more closely. Kevin Bupp 20:08 Have you explored building new product? Is there an opportunity there getting at a lower basis by building ground up? Keith Weinhold 19:42 You asked such a smart question. This is actually the first time ever, as long as I've been an active real estate investor, Kevin for more than 20 years where new build purchases for income property make more sense than existing purchases. Why is that? It's because builders know that investors and borrowers are struggling to buy and afford property and make the numbers work. Like you're talking about, that builders are incentivized to buy down your rate. For you, to buy down your mortgage rate, we deal with a lot of providers that buy down your mortgage rate to 5% or less for you, and this is a fixed, long term loan in order to help get the numbers to work. You know, especially where you might see a new build property where the rent to purchase price ratio is less than seven tenths of 1% and it's just like, ah, the numbers wouldn't work paying a higher mortgage rate, but some are willing to buy them down to as little as four and a half. However, if you're looking into buying a new build income producing property, you do want to look at that closely. Who is paying for the discount points to buy down the rate. Is it the builder, or is it you? Because some builders just suggest, hey, you can buy down. You can have your rate bought down. But yeah, the next question is, yeah, okay, who is actually doing the buy down? Yeah. Keith Weinhold 19:43 I mean, just getting tacked on. I mean, in that instance, I'm assuming that a lot of it's just getting tacked on to the to the back end of the purchase price, or it's being baked into closing costs somewhere somebody is paying for it. More than likely the borrower is paying for it. Paying for it. Is that? Is that? Again, I'm assuming we probably have that here in Florida. Again, I don't really follow the residential market too much, but there's, as you had mentioned, like, kind of on the the outskirts of Tampa, the tertiary, necessary, tertiary, probably more secondary areas. That's where a lot of the builds are happening. Lots of these, you know, planned subdivisions. You know, hundreds and 1000s of homes being put up. And in my understanding, through the grapevine, is I hear that they're, you know, sales volumes is incredibly slow, and a lot of these builders are now offering some creative loan products, again, to what you've just stated there, to attract, not necessarily even just homeowners, but also investors, to come in and buy their product from them. Is, is there a real opportunity there, though? I mean, have you seen investors be able to benefit from buying brand new product at a fair price, with economics at work keeping as a rental? Keith Weinhold 29:53 I have and Florida has some builders that are almost desperate. I'm a long time investor. Know personally, directly in Florida, income property, Southwest Florida, places like Cape Coral, they have been ground zero for real estate depreciation, a contraction in real estate values year over year of 10% or more in some southwest Florida markets. So like the post pandemic, migration boom is certainly over in Florida. And you know, Kevin, as little as 10 years ago, people used to talk about buy in Florida. It's cheap, it's sunny, cheap and cheerful, like you would sort of hear that sort of thing about Florida real estate. That is no longer true. Florida just is not as cheap as it used to be. It's the same or higher than the national median home price now in Florida. So yes, some builders are rather desperate. The other benefit of buying new build, especially in a place like Florida, where a lot of new building has taken place and the supply actually exceeds the demand here in the short period. You can take advantage of that, not only by getting the rate buy down, but because homeowners insurance premiums are substantially less on new build property, because they're built to today's wind mitigation and other standards than they are existing property. I have a friend that just bought a new Florida duplex through us in Ocala, Florida. That's sort of a central, North Central Florida, on that new build duplex that he paid 400k for. I saw the actual insurance premium, the the rate sheet, $694.06 $694 694 so the benefit of buying new build is you get a lower insurance premium. You get these rate buy down. Sometimes what your builder will buy for you make for you rather and of course, you're probably going to have low maintenance costs for a long time, since it's a new build property, and you get a tenant that is probably going to stay longer than the average duration. They're the first person to ever live there. It's difficult for the tenant to improve their housing situation when they have a new build income property, unless they would go out and buy, and it's a very difficult time to go out and buy. So through that lack of affordability, really, the advantage for a real estate investor is tenants are staying put longer. The average tenancy duration is up because they can't run out and be a first time homebuyer. Keith Weinhold 32:32 You know, most people think they're playing it safe with their liquid money, but they're actually losing savings accounts and bonds don't keep up when true inflation eats six or 7% of your wealth.

Todd Rowlett, listen to get rich education with my friend Keith Weinhold, and don't quit your Daydream. Kevin Bupp 34:38 That even trickles down to the to the space that we're in. We're in the mobile home park space. And while we don't have a lot of rentals inside of our portfolio, most of our residents own their home and they rent the land, but throughout our portfolio, we have roughly 400 units that we own that we have as standardized rentals, and we've noticed that trend as well. Historically. 10 years ago, you. Yeah, we track actually about, I can take it back about eight years, where we actually have data to support this. This claim is that our average renter would stay about 16 months. That was fairly standard. Whereas today it's over, it's nearly three years. At this point in time, the majority are staying nearly three in there's probably, there's some variables in there. You know, eight years ago, we weren't bringing a lot of new product into our communities, whereas a lot of the mobile home parks that we purchased today do have a lot of newer mobile homes in them. So again, to your point, it's, it's a it's a newer home. It's fresh. There might not be the first person that lived there, maybe they're only the second, right? But it's still a very new home. It's only a couple years old. All the appliances are new. It's fresh, you know, it's well insulated, and it's just a high quality product, but, but it's nearly double of what we used to experience and what we used to underwrite. It's, you know, which is, which is interesting. You know, I am, I want to, I want to circle back, you'd mentioned Cape Coral. I've got quite a bit, quite a bit of experience with Cape Coral. This is not the first time that Cape Coral and Port Charlotte in those areas have crashed. I mean, like, they've got quite an interesting history in time, back during the GFC, that area down there took probably one of the biggest hits in most of Florida, while, you know, the rest of Florida got, you know, pounded pretty hard with home values and decreasing home values decreasing rents, Port Charlotte, Cape, coral, in those areas as well. It's just It looks very different down there today. As far as you know, the job basis. I mean, there's a little bit more of a, you know, you know, an economy than what existed maybe 1015, years ago. But I don't know if you know the story of Port Charlotte. Is it some interesting history that you can if you want to spend some time, go on YouTube. There's some documentaries out there about, basically when that area was created. There's a two brothers that, essentially, you know, sold, subdivided and sold swampland and sold the dream to the northeast centers to come down and buy, you know, parcels of land down in Cape Coral, port, Charlotte and in that general area. And it took a lot of time for it develop over the years, but it's a beautiful area down there. But again, I think what happened to your point? A lot of folks during the covid era were wanting to come to Florida. We were fairly free down here. The sun was shining, you know, the Gulf of Mexico was warm, and that was a good value for a lot of folks. You know, the values were driving up there. Was home inventory down there. You got a good bang for your buck back at that point in time. But again, there's not, there's not as much as many amenities and supportive economy there. And then to me, there, like you might find in the Tampa area, or you might find Orlando, or even Ocala cow is a phenomenal market right now. And yeah, oh, Cal is, for those that don't you know you mentioned, you referenced the insurance there, which is, that's a great, that's a great price for that, that policy, you know, 700 bucks, basically, that is inland. For those that don't know the geography here in Florida, that is inland. So you are fairly protected from storms, you know, hurricanes and things of that nature, which crush us here on the on the Gulf Coast. But in any event, I just thought I'd share that there's some good, pretty cool documentaries out there in Port Charlotte, in the whole area down there, but a beautiful part of the country. But just Yeah, it's, it's suffering right now. There's, I think there's, I was looking the other day on Zillow. I just play around and check and see what waterfront home prices are going for. And down there, you can basically get a you can get a canal front home going out to the Gulf of Mexico for about $500,000 which was probably closer to 800,000 during, you know, the the boom era of 2021 2022 So historically, we used to buy properties down there. This is back in 2000 and 345, before the the GFC, we could buy those same properties for 150 and $200,000 waterfront home, waterfront homes, deep water canals going out to the Gulf of Mexico. But when it crashed, some of those homes were selling for $120,000 $100,000 so it's interesting to see how things have come kind of full circle multiple times, not just down there, but in all of Florida as well. Florida is always boom and bust. You know, I think they say that with you know, you could probably speak to that most of these coastal towns, whether it be in Florida, whether it be up the eastern seaboard, the coastal markets are definitely more of a roller coaster ride than the Midwestern markets, where you invest in would you? Would you agree with that? Keith Weinhold 39:09 Yeah, I would. And yeah, you talk about Florida being a boom and bust, and what you said is certainly true in the shorter term. Back in the global financial crisis, we saw more price blood letting in Florida than we did in other states as well. But over the long term, the long arc, I'm bullish on Florida because of just the obvious constant in migration story. In fact, if you go back to decennial censuses, all the way back to the early 1800s every single decennial census, every 10 years, the population of Florida has rose, and it rises faster than the national average, almost all of those 10 year periods. So yeah, over the long term, I certainly like Florida, but Yeah, you sure can, you know, nitpick over the. Short term, but as little as five years from now. If you bought today, as little as five years from now, I could see someone saying, like, yeah, I bought back five years ago, because we're actually in a in a short term, overbuilt condition, and builders bought down my rate. For me, this could look savvy and this could look wise. So if you're looking for opportunity, new building Florida is definitely something to look into. Kevin Bupp 40:22 I agree. No, absolutely. Like, the long term, you know, opportunity here in Florida, it's there, you know, it's interesting. We've got the we get these hurricanes every year. Last year was a pretty impactful year, at least here on the on the Gulf side, and the neighborhood I lived in, we got flooded. Luckily, our homes in newer builds built up. But, you know, 70% of the neighbor I lived in had 444, or five feet of seawater. And as did the, you know, the long stretch of the Gulf Coast here, and it was the first time this area has ever this immediate air right where we live, has ever had a it wasn't even a direct hit. It just happened to be a massive storm surge. But it was, you know, catastrophic as far as the damage that it did. And a lot of folks that we knew in our neighborhood here. Have lived here for 1020, 3040, or 50 years, and they had never had any floodwater whatsoever. And and there was two camps where they fell in either one camp where they didn't, they whether they had the money to rebuild or not, didn't matter. Like, mentally, they were never going to end up. They were never going to deal with that again. They were moving away, like they just didn't want to go through the heartache of that again. In the second camp, we're basically, I knew it was going to happen at some point in time. This is the kind of price to live, to pay, a live in paradise and and what ultimately occurred is, you know, you saw homes going up for sale, and in the initial chatter for those that that were impacted, is that, who's going to buy that? You know? You know, they're not going to get hardly anything for it. You know, it's just like, who's going to want to live here now that has been flooded. I said, Just wait. I'll say people have us as human beings, have short term memories. We do and and I can promise you, within a few months, those homes will be gobbled up, some will be knocked down, some will be rebuilt, but inevitably, the prices will come back incredibly strong, and you'll see very limited inventory, at least in desirable markets that are here on the water. And that's exactly that happened. Within six month period of time, prices are back up. You can't get your hands on a flooded property now, or one that had been flooded, right? Keith Weinhold 42:12 I can believe it. And this is not the way that you want to have a waterfront property when the water inundates you and comes to you, that is not the way to buy waterfront property. Kevin Bupp 42:23 Yeah, interesting, but, uh, no, Keith has been a fun conversation, my friend. So let's, let's talk about, you know, I like to you'll peek inside your brain if you were going to start all over again, from scratch, you know, you've been at this now, what? How long? Almost two decades. It's been, been quite Keith Weinhold 42:38 Yes, yes, more than two decades. Is that what you're asking, how would I start, starting from today? Kevin Bupp 42:47 Yeah, like, what would you do? Where would you focus, what asset type and any particular strategy outside of what you're doing today? You know, where would you focus your time? Keith Weinhold 42:55 Actually, it is quite a coincidence. The way that I would start all over again in real estate is the way that I did start in real estate. It worked out phenomenally, in a way it makes sense, because if it hadn't worked out phenomenally, you never would have heard of me, and I wouldn't have become this real estate thought leader or whatever, because this is a way, an everyday person with virtually no real estate knowledge and very little money. Can start out, what I did is I made the first ever home of any kind, a four Plex building where I lived in one unit and rented out the other three. This is something very actionable for your for your audience as well, Kevin. Or if maybe you're a listener that has a an adult daughter or son and they want to get started in real estate with a bang without much money, is to buy a four Plex, just like I did. You can use an FHA loan, a three and a half percent down payment. You have to live in one of the units at least 12 months, and at last check, your minimum credit score only needs to be 580 now you will get a lower interest rate if you have a higher credit score. But those are the only three criteria you need. I mean, what a country talk about? The American Dream. You can use that FHA program with a single family home, duplex, triplex or fourplex, that's the formula. That's how I began. Actually ended up living there a little more than three years. But what that did for me was remarkable, and in fact, you know what it taught me? Kevin and every listener can benefit from this. It's paradoxical. A lot of times I say things that you would not expect to hear that make you go, wait what? Whoa, how can that be? Is what it taught me is that I don't want to focus on getting my money to work for me. You probably wouldn't expect to hear that. It's actually a middle class paradigm to say, well, I don't want to work for money. I also want to get my money to work for me. I'm telling. You that that's going to keep you middle class, or worse, that's going to keep you working until old age, and you won't have an outsized life and retirement and options. If you think that the best and highest use of your dollar is getting your money to work for you, it's not what's the paradigm shift if this four Plex building taught me the way I started out, which is still the way that I would start out today, and you probably heard this before, but I'm going to put a new twist on it. Is you want to ethically get other people's money to work for you, and we can be ethical. We can do good in the world. Provide housing that's clean, safe, affordable and functional. Never get called a slumlord that way. You can employ other people's money three ways at the same time, ethically by buying an income property with a loan, like we've been talking about in Florida, or with this fourplex building. How do you do it three ways at the same time, using the bank's money for the loan and leverage, which greatly amplifies your return beyond anything Compound Interest can do. The second of three ways you're ethically employing other people's money is you're using the tenants money to pay for the mortgage and some of the operating expenses on this fourplex. And then the third way you're simultaneously using other people's money is using the government's money for generous tax incentives at scale. So the lesson is that the best and highest use of your dollar is not getting just your money to work for you, it's other people's money, in this case, the banks, the tenants and the governments. That's what you can do. I mean, what an opportunity. A lot of people just don't even know about that FHA program. Kevin Bupp 46:41 Yeah, I actually, I wasn't, I wasn't aware that it was that low of a down payment key. That's no idea. Three and a half percent, you said, a 550 credit score, believe me, 580 minimum credit. Keith Weinhold 46:51 And you have to, thirdly, you have to owner occupy a unit for at least 12 months. And hey, I'm not saying it's always easy. You know, you got to think about that. Your neighbors are also your tenants. And I don't know how to fix stuff. I still don't. I'm a terrible handyman, but it's good to learn a little about about human relations. And you know, letting finding a general way to let the tenants know that you have a mortgage to pay every month. I mean, just that alone can can help them ensure timely rent payments. But, and this also doesn't mean every area, or every four Plex building is is good, but, yeah, that's the opportunity. That's how I started. I would totally do it again. Kevin Bupp 47:27 Can you use that FHA program more than once? Or is that just the one time you know your first, first, first primary home purchase? Keith Weinhold 47:34 It's generally you can only use one at a time. There are some exceptions, like if you and your job move, like, a certain mile radius away from where you got the first one, but, yeah, generally it's only going to be one at a time. A lot of people don't use it. Don't know about it. In fact, if you have VA benefits, Veterans Administration benefits, you can get a similar program, like I was talking about, but zero down payment, rather than three and a half with an FHA loan. It's a really good, amazingly good opportunity. Kevin Bupp 48:05 That's incredible. That's incredible. Keith, my friend, I appreciate you coming back going. It's always good to catch up with you. Good to see that you're doing well. Keith Weinhold 48:17 Oh yeah, a terrific chat there with Kevin. I hope that you like that really. At our core, real estate investors are not day trading. We are decade trading. Now I'm in western New York today, at the other end of the state, NYU compiled some terrific statistics that you want to hear about for nearly the past 100 years. It is the annualized returns of six major asset classes. This spans, the Great Depression, a number of recessions, World War Two, the New Deal, gold standard, abandonment, brendawoods, the Cold War, Civil Rights Movements, oil shocks, Volcker rate hikes, the.com boom and crash, the 911, attacks, the housing bubble, covid, 19, AI revolution and 16 presidencies, all those ups and downs and war and peace and economic booms and economic lows, and now there is going to be a mild tongue in cheek element here, because stats like this drive real estate investors crazy, but this is often how mainstream media portrays asset class comparisons. All right, the six asset classes are stocks, cash, bonds, real estate, gold, and then inflation, which isn't in an asset class, but it's a benchmark. All of these begin from the year 1930 so spanning almost 100 years. Let's take it from the lowest return to the high. Best return the lowest is inflation. And what do you think the CPI inflation rate is averaged over the last 100 years? Any guess at all? You might be surprised. It is 3.2% Yeah, even though the Fed's CPI inflation target has long been 2% it runs hot longer than most people believe. So therefore, today's inflation rate isn't high, it's just normal. The next highest return is cash at 3.3% How did NYU measure that the yield from three months T bills? Next up is bonds. They returned 4.3% that's the 10 year treasury average of the last 100 years. The next highest is real estate at 4.7% that uses the K Shiller Index. Now we're up to the second highest. It is gold at 5.6% and the highest is stocks at 10.3% using the s, p5, 100, and this was all laid out in a brilliant chart that also shows the returns by each decade for all of these asset classes. You'll remember that I shared the chart with you in our newsletter a few weeks ago. Now you are smarter and more informed than the layperson is, you know, but they see this chart and they think, Oh, well, that's it. I've got my answer. Real Estate's 4.7% appreciation loses out to gold's 5.6 and stocks 10.3 and then they go back to watching Love is blind. But of course, rental property owners like us know that we often make five times or more than this 4.7% when we consider all those other income streams and profit centers, leverage, rents, ROA and inflation, profiting on our debt, it's often 25 to 30% total. It's sort of like judging a Ferrari by only measuring its cupholders or something. Now, would stocks 10.3% get adjusted up as well? Yeah, probably a little, because the s and p5 100 currently averages a 1.2% dividend yield, so that might be added on the 4.7% return for real estate. That cites the popular Case Shiller Index. And the way that that index works is that it uses a repeat sales methodology. So what that means is that the Case Shiller measures the sales price of the same property over time. Therefore a property would have to sell at least twice in order to be measured by this popular and widely cited K Shiller Index. So then the 4.7% appreciation figure excludes new build homes, and new builds appreciate more than existing homes, but you do have more existing homes that sell the new build homes, so we can pretty safely assume that real estate's long term appreciation rate is higher, likely between five and 6% there it is. So yeah, making comparisons across asset classes like this is pretty tricky, because investment properties leverage and cash flow gets nullified. And when you make comparisons like this, it's a big reminder that even if you can't get much cash flow off a 20 or 25% down real estate payment, sheesh, most people put a 100% payment into stocks, gold or Bitcoin, and they don't expect any cash flow. And Bitcoin isn't part of what we're looking at for this century long view, because it did not exist until 2009 and also NYU had to use some alternative statistics. Sometimes the s, p5, 100 index only came into being in 1957 and the Case Shiller Index 1987 Keith Weinhold 54:02 next week here on the show, I expect to answer your listener questions from beginner to advanced.

Franco Buffoni"Aureole e tigri dal mondo queer"Racconti di un'altra letteraturail ramo e la foglia edizioniwww.ilramoelafogliaedizioni.itQuesto libro vuole essere anzitutto la testimonianza di un cinquantennale impegno, umile e costante, vòlto a dare dignità letteraria ad alcune istanze provenienti dal mondo queer.Perché, negli anni della mia formazione, quelli come me, a destra venivano considerati degli sporcaccioni, al centro dei peccatori, a sinistra una degenerazione borghese. Non era così, naturalmente: la classe operaia, di quelli come me, ne contava tanti quanti le altre classi sociali, solo che stavano nel closet. Ma, come diceva Mario Mieli, bastava frequentare i vespasiani per rendersi conto di quanti proletari en battuage li frequentassero.La situazione, almeno nel mondo occidentale, cominciò lentamente a cambiare con il Sessantotto, in un crescendo culminato il 17 maggio 1990 con la dichiarazione dell'OMS, che definì l'orientamento sessuale di quelli come me “una variante naturale dell'umana sessualità”. Dunque nessuna malattia, nessuna cura: nessuna terapia riparativa.Questi racconti sono stati scritti nella convinzione che qualche giovane possa trarre motivo di orgoglio e rinnovata dignità.*«A Central Park, senza dirgli nulla in precedenza, Louis gli fa incontrare il figlio di Benny Paret. Emile lo scruta un po', poi avvicina il viso e gli dice: “Non volevo. Assomigli molto a tuo padre”.Nel 2005 partecipa al Gay Pride e in un'intervista su Sports Illustrated fa coming out: “Se uccido un uomo tante persone capiscono e mi perdonano. Se invece amo un uomo, per molti questo resta un crimine imperdonabile. È allora che divento cattivo. Per questo, anche se non sono mai stato fisicamente in prigione, è come se fossi rimasto in cella per quasi tutta la vita”.»*Franco Buffoni ha pubblicato Suora carmelitana (1997), Il profilo del Rosa (2000), Guerra (2005), Noi e loro (2008).

Click Here for the Show Notes Today's Throwback Thursday episode of Passive Real Estate Investing brings back a listener favorite that's just as relevant now as when it first aired. In this episode, Marco revisits a great question from Victor, a new investor who—along with his sister—recently closed on their first three seller-financed rental properties. Victor asks when investors should start paying themselves from rental income and how much is appropriate. Marco uses this as a springboard to clarify how to correctly calculate NOI, how to think about expenses, and how to align your payout decisions with your overall investment strategy. He also breaks down the difference between focusing on cash flow now versus reinvesting for rapid portfolio growth, plus how the “snowball” method of mortgage payoff can speed up your journey to financial freedom.

Fernando Angelucci is a self-storage investor and syndicator who's transacted on over $200M worth of self-storage facilities across dozens of states in just six years. After starting in house painting, flipping, and multifamily, he ditched the “three T's” (tenants, toilets, trash) and went all-in on self storage, where he now specializes in wholesaling, value-add deals, and creative seller-financed structures—while spending most of the year living abroad. On this episode we talk about: Fernando's journey from immigrant parents and a Fortune 50 corporate job to full-time real estate investor How he used 60 credit cards and $97K in high-interest debt to launch his flipping business (and why he doesn't recommend it) Why he pivoted from flipping and rentals into self storage and what makes the asset class so attractive How to wholesale self-storage deals step-by-step, from building lists to skip tracing to talking with owners The key underwriting metrics he uses (supply index, price per square foot, occupancy, and competition) How he structures creative seller-financed deals (multiple offer structures, master lease options, and more) The importance of reps, rejection, accountability, and public goals in getting your first deal done Top 3 Takeaways Self storage is a powerful, scalable niche. With roughly two-thirds of facilities owned by mom-and-pop operators, there's a massive opportunity to buy under-managed properties, modernize operations (web presence, pricing, tech), and quickly increase NOI. Wholesaling self storage is a low-capital way to start. By buying data, skip tracing owners, building relationships, and assigning contracts, you can generate large fees without taking title or raising huge amounts of capital—while learning the business from inside the deal flow. Creative financing unlocks deals banks won't touch. By really listening to an owner's “why” (retirement income, grandkids' tuition, travel), you can craft seller-financed structures, second-position notes, and master leases that solve their problem and allow you to acquire cash-flowing assets with minimal money down. Notable Quotes “Once you get comfortable with people saying no and failure, then you just realize it's reps. That's all you gotta do—reps.” “If you're always 100% full, that's not a good thing in self storage. It means your rents are too low.” “Too many people rush to get a contract. Slow down and find the why behind the why—then structure the deal around that.” Connect with Fernando Angelucci: Website / Investing: https://ssse.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thestoragestud ✖️✖️✖️✖️
On this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Benjamin Kanner, CEO and co-founder of 3V Infrastructure, a company focused on delivering long-term, scalable EV charging solutions for multifamily portfolios. With a background spanning commercial real estate, renewable energy project finance, and multiple startups, Ben brings a uniquely holistic view of how electrification intersects with property ownership and investor demand. His company's model—installing, owning, and operating EV chargers at no cost to property owners—creates a compelling new amenity for renters while helping owners stay ahead of rapidly shifting consumer expectations. Throughout the conversation, Ben and Jonathan discuss the accelerating adoption of electric vehicles, why multifamily properties sit at the center of this transition, and the economic forces shaping the need for reliable, long-dwell charging infrastructure. Ben explains the cost drivers behind EV ownership, how modular battery technology is evolving, and why Level 2 charging is the most practical option for home-based needs. He also breaks down how 3V underwrites utilization, diversifies risk across large portfolios, and helps property owners increase rents and tenant satisfaction—all without capital outlay. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of how EV charging impacts NOI, what's really happening with power demand, why used EV markets will expand rapidly, and how owners can prepare their buildings for the next decade of transportation needs. Whether you're an LP, a multifamily operator, or simply curious about electrification, this episode highlights the strategic advantage of early adoption. In this episode, you will hear: Why EV adoption has crossed a national inflection point and what that means for multifamily owners. How 3V Infrastructure finances, installs, and maintains EV chargers with no upfront cost to operators. The economics of EV ownership—including maintenance, fueling costs, and battery modularity. Why Level 2 charging is ideal for long-dwell environments like apartment communities. The role of data, utilization modeling, and EV "rent rolls" in determining charger counts. How electrification, grid demand, and infrastructure investment will shape the next decade of CRE.

John Casmon interviews Ed Mathews, a former Silicon Valley tech executive who walked away from a high-flying software career to build a more family-centered, freedom-focused life through real estate. Ed shares how missing too many “18 summers” with his daughters pushed him to leave DocuSign and go all-in on multifamily after seven years of flipping houses and small-building rehabs on the side. He explains how he scaled his Connecticut portfolio by finding “rock star” contractors through trade-to-trade referrals, building tight systems, and using process—not heroics—to let average people perform exceptionally well. Ed details why he prefers long-term residents over constant value-add turnover, how he achieved 4.2-year average stays, and why responsiveness, respect, and presence on site drive both mission and NOI. The conversation closes with his shift away from property management toward asset management, his expansion into AI-powered operations, and the launch of both a debt fund and private equity fund to pursue larger 150-unit-plus acquisitions.

Matt Faircloth interviews Robert Beardsley, partner at Lone Star Capital (LSCRE), about navigating the current multifamily cycle, surviving 2021–2022 acquisitions, and why the most resilient opportunities today hinge on debt structure, affordability incentives, and supply-constrained submarkets. Robert breaks down how Texas multifamily has shifted from a “prices only go up” environment to a more balanced but still competitive market, where Class B suburban assets with little new supply outperform shiny Class A developments offering heavy concessions. He explains how LS CRE avoided major distress by minimizing bridge debt exposure and shifting early into affordable-housing-driven acquisitions—leveraging tax-exemption partnerships with housing authorities to create stable NOI without risky value-add pushes. The two dive deep into rising treasuries, soft-landing odds, rent-to-income resilience, recession risk, Texas HB 21 fallout, and why hundreds of improperly structured tax-exemption deals may implode when exemptions expire in 2026.

A broker from a national pizza chain asked me to extend their lease and lower their rent by $5/SF. But instead of panicking, I asked a better question: “Would they be open to leaving instead?” In this episode, I break down the full story—and why more landlords need to stop reacting from fear and start thinking strategically.From understanding tenant exclusives in the market to knowing when to call a bluff, I walk you through exactly how I handled this pitch, the math behind restaurant margins, and why you should never drop rent without seeing sales. If you're being hit with rent reduction requests—especially from nationals—this is a must-listen playbook for keeping your NOI strong.
Behind every successful property turnaround is a set of choices that shape the outcome. In this solo episode of the Real Estate Investor Podcast, Gary Lipsky walks listeners through a detailed case study of Icon on Spanish Trail, the 256-unit Tucson property he acquired in December 2023.

What would you risk to win the deal of a lifetime?In this episode, I'm sharing the behind-the-scenes story of one of the most competitive acquisitions of my career—where I took a $30,000 gamble before getting the deal, beat out five other buyers, and closed in just three days. And yes, I turned a former strip club into a retail center generating $740,000 in NOI.This wasn't luck—it was strategy, speed, and a little creative thinking. I'll walk you through the relationships I spent years building, the unconventional move my partner suggested, and the mindset that helped me take the leap. If you've ever been neck-and-neck for a deal, this episode will challenge the way you play the game.Because sometimes, the deal doesn't go to the highest bidder—it goes to the boldest.
