Whether you're just starting or scaling up, tune in for actionable tips, a few laughs, and the inside scoop on making smarter real estate moves.

Buyers are pickier than ever, so you need to prep, price, and present your home to maximize offers. Start by making small repairs, then depersonalize and deep clean. The market has changed. Homes aren't selling as quickly as last year, and buyers are taking their time. With more listings available, it's not enough to simply put your home on the market and hope for the best. If your home isn't prepared, it could sit longer than expected or face price reductions. The good news is that you can avoid that. With the right steps, you can still sell quickly and for a strong price. Here's what I recommend for every seller who wants to stand out in today's market: 1. Fix small problems before you list. Buyers are cautious right now. Higher interest rates have made them more careful with their money. They're looking for homes that don't need extra work. Minor repairs—like patching walls, fixing a loose handle, or replacing outdated light fixtures—can make a big difference. These details show that your home is move-in ready and reduce the risk of inspection delays later. 2. Make your home feel clean and open. You don't need to invest in a full renovation. What matters most is that your home looks clean, well-cared-for, and easy to picture living in. Start by clearing clutter and putting away personal items. Keep the decor simple and neutral. Add light touches that make the space feel warm, like fresh towels or flowers. Buyers notice how a space makes them feel; a clean, calm home always makes a stronger impression. “With the right plan, you can still sell your home quickly and for a strong price.” 3. Plan for kids and pets during showings. If you have children or pets, showing your home can be a little tricky. But it's important to give buyers the best experience possible. Try to be out of the house during showings, and keep the space quiet and tidy. When buyers feel comfortable, they stay longer, often leading to better offers. Selling your home this summer is still a great opportunity. But it takes the right plan. If you'd like help preparing your home and developing a strategy, reach out today. I'll guide you through the steps that help your home stand out and sell with confidence.

Welcome to the Real Estate Investing School Podcast! In this episode, host Joe Jensen interviews Jesse Ray, a driven entrepreneur who boldly transitioned from the corporate grind to real estate freedom. Jesse opens up about his path from climbing the ranks in corporate sales to realizing he was unfulfilled—and how that revelation pushed him to pursue a more intentional life. By investing in single-family co-living homes in Phoenix, Arizona and renting out furnished rooms individually, Jesse unlocked a high-cash-flow strategy that quickly replaced his six-figure income and enabled him to walk away from his W-2 job. Jesse also shares the origin story of Growth House, a purpose-driven co-living venture designed to cultivate community and personal development among entrepreneurs. From his global travels to the hustle of door-knocking for deals, Jesse's journey is filled with actionable lessons and hard-earned wisdom. He and Joe discuss the impact of being around ambitious, like-minded people, and the real-world benefits and hurdles of co-living as a scalable investment model. Whether you're seeking to escape the 9-to-5 or scale your real estate business with intention, this conversation is packed with valuable insights on mindset, strategy, and building a life by design.

The property market in Ghana presents a golden opportunity for both local and diaspora investors, with prime locations seeing values double within 5-6 years compared to 10 years in markets like the UK. This eye-opening conversation with Leslie Brobey, CEO of Ocean B Properties and a 13-year veteran in Ghana's real estate industry, reveals insider knowledge crucial for anyone looking to invest in Ghanaian property.Leslie shares why East Legon Hills stands as his top investment recommendation, having seen land prices skyrocket from $6,000 to $60,000+ in just a decade. He breaks down the rental economics - how a $190,000 apartment in Cantonments can generate $4,000 monthly with good occupancy, potentially recouping your investment in half the time of other markets. For diaspora investors especially, he explains why apartments offer advantages over large houses: better security, lower maintenance, amenities like backup power, and strong rental potential when owners are abroad.The conversation tackles critical aspects often overlooked by buyers: which documents are non-negotiable when purchasing land (land title, site plan, and full search reports), how to verify legitimate ownership, understanding the implications of Ghana's leasing system (50 years for foreigners versus 99 years for locals), and why ensuring your lease explicitly states it's renewable could save your investment. Leslie shares cautionary tales of common scams, from multiple sales of the same property to divorced couples selling jointly-owned land without proper authorization.Whether you're considering a $50,000 investment or planning to relocate to Ghana, this conversation provides invaluable guidance on navigating one of Africa's most promising real estate markets.

For the first time in 2025, Vancouver home prices have declined—and combined with multi-year lows in sales activity, have we finally reached the bottom of this market cycle?In this week's episode, we dive into the May market update for Vancouver, examining why—after four consecutive years of declining home sales—we may be approaching a cyclical turning point. Vancouver just posted its lowest April sales figures since 2019, and for context, this is now the longest recorded slowdown in the GVRD since 2005. But what's fascinating is that some early signs of life are emerging in other major Canadian markets—especially Toronto. TRREB reported a modest 1.8% increase in sales in April, breaking a brutal two-month, 27% drop. Is this a blip, or the beginning of the stabilization phase?We break down affordability and consumer confidence, two key drivers of real estate cycles. With mortgage payments on a typical home now at $2,600—the lowest since May 2022—affordability is quietly improving. And with consumer sentiment indexes showing their first significant jump in over a year, buyer psychology could be shifting. Should the Bank of Canada cut rates in June, as markets are pricing in, it could bring payments back to 2022 levels—when sales volumes were 52% higher.We then turn to Toronto, where the situation is more extreme. GTA sales remain 21% lower year-over-year, with condo sales down a staggering 30%—the lowest sales figures seen in 25 years (excluding COVID lockdowns). Inventory is ballooning, up 51% overall and 83% for condos in the 416. And prices across all asset types have dropped: condos are down 6.8%, detached homes 5.4%. Meanwhile, the rental market is under pressure too. With 16,000 rental listings, GTA rental inventory is at an all-time high. Rents are now 13% below peak levels, and investor demand has fallen off a cliff. But with prices and rates declining faster than rents, even cash flow metrics are beginning to improve—though we're still far from equilibrium.We then circle back to Vancouver. Despite the sales slowdown, condos have shown surprising resilience—both in sales and price. Condo transactions are down just 56% from peak levels (compared to 71% for detached homes) and prices have only slipped 2% from their highs,  outperforming detached and townhouse segments. In fact, when looking at the broader GVRD—excluding downtown Vancouver—condo prices have barely moved.New listings in Vancouver came in slightly below 2024 levels but remain steady, and inventory continues to climb, reaching an 11-year high for April. With buyers still largely on the sidelines, the sales-to-active ratio has held in balanced market territory for 12 straight months—14% overall. The days-on-market average ticked up to 16, and foreclosure activity rose slightly but remains a minor share of total listings.Finally, we close with price movement: The Home Price Index fell by 0.5% this month, the first drop of the year, bringing the average Vancouver home price to $1.184M. The average price dropped by $20,000, and prices are now 1.8% lower than they were a year ago.Whether we've hit the bottom or are simply sliding along it remains to be seen—but the data suggests that a turning point could be on the horizon. Be sure to tune in for our full analysis, charts, and predictions—so you're prepared for what's next in this shifting market. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Send us a textThe American housing market stands at a critical inflection point. With median home prices reaching an unprecedented peak of $387,600 and mortgage rates hovering around 6.76%, monthly housing payments have hit a record $2,868 for typical buyers. Despite these challenging conditions, regional markets are telling dramatically different stories that savvy investors need to understand.Washington DC has experienced a stunning 25% surge in active listings—the highest since 2015—largely driven by federal workforce reductions. Meanwhile, Florida's once-booming market has cooled significantly, with median prices dropping 1.7% year-over-year, the steepest decline in over a decade. In California, San Diego's shift toward a buyer's market is evident with more than half of homes selling below asking price. These regional variations highlight the increasingly localized nature of real estate opportunities.Perhaps most telling is that nearly 7% of homes nationwide have seen price drops—the highest percentage on record—while 44.4% of recent sales include substantial seller concessions. The market is adapting, creating both challenges and opportunities for different players. Whether you're looking to buy, sell, or invest, understanding these shifting dynamics is essential for making informed decisions. Ready to deepen your real estate expertise?

Jason talks about the current state of the housing market, emphasizing that there is no housing crash due to the low number of financially distressed homeowners. He shared updated statistics from the US Census Bureau, indicating that 39.8% of homeowners have no mortgage, and 65% have mortgages at or below 4%. Jason also highlighted the oversupply in the high-end market and encouraged potential buyers to reach out to his investment counselors for opportunities. Jason then finishes his talk with Vince of RE social as they discuss the advantages of single-family homes, highlighting their accessibility and historical stability. While scaling can seem challenging with multiple mortgages, blanket loans exist. Institutional investors demonstrate the scalability of single-family rentals. Diversification across 3-5 markets is recommended for single-family homes, offering a balance between wealth creation through concentration and preservation via diversification. Viewing tenants as "subscribers" in a sticky business model and leveraging financing and tax benefits further solidify single-family income property as a top asset class. #RealEstateInvesting #SingleFamilyHomes #IncomeProperty #RentalProperty #RealEstateTips #InvestmentStrategy #WealthBuilding #PassiveIncome #REI #RealEstateMarket #Diversification #SubscriptionBusiness #TaxBenefits #1031Exchange #HousingMarket #RealEstateExpert #InvestmentProperties #FinancialFreedom #RealEstateForBeginners #MultifamilyInvesting   Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 2:32 Why there is housing crash YET 9:17 Join our FREE MASTERCLASS EVERY 2nd Wednesday of the month JasonHartman.com/Wednesday Jason's interview with Vince Rodriguez of RE Social part 2 10:11 Diversity 12:22 The best subscription model in the world 13:32 Share of income, income property and taxes 17:55 Buy or rent? 20:22 Market dynamics and unemployment insurance 28:53 "Everyone has a right to a home"- and you're renting it out!

In this episode of the Real Estate Investing School podcast, host Joe Jensen sits down with Scott Durham, a 20-year veteran real estate agent based in Reno, Nevada, who made the pivot into investing in 2019. Scott shares how he transitioned from a high-volume agent to a savvy investor doing 10 to 12 flips a year while slowly building a rental portfolio focused on short-term rentals. The conversation dives deep into the stark contrast between being a real estate agent and being an investor, and how Scott strategically blends both roles to maximize profit and flexibility in his life. He shares how flipping created the capital he needed to fund long-term passive income investments—and how buying right from day one is the key to success. Throughout the interview, Scott and Joe unpack topics like lifestyle design, escaping the hamster wheel of high-commission work, leveraging your position in the real estate world to find hidden deals, and the pros and cons of investing in HOAs. Scott also talks about why he prefers short-term rentals over long-term holds in high-cost markets and the systems he's built to keep things lean and automated.

“Every year during the spring, we always see a boom” in the real estate market, says Rogers Healy. He looks at the most recent economic data on New Home Sales and says the Fed doesn't need to adjust rates right now because of continuing demand. In 6-8 months, he does expect an “adjustment” as tariffs hit consumers.

Send us a textThe landscape of real estate is shifting beneath our feet. In this market update, we uncover the surprising trend of falling home prices across 11 major metropolitan areas—the largest drop we've seen in nearly two years. Cities like San Antonio, Oakland, and Jacksonville are feeling the squeeze most acutely, while national prices continue to rise, albeit at their slowest pace since last summer.Drawing from my own investing experience, I share the eye-opening reality of today's market: a $299,000 property in St. Petersburg received just two showings in three weeks before finally going under contract at $288,000. This isn't happening in luxury markets—this is the supposedly affordable range where most Americans shop. The perfect storm of high mortgage rates (now averaging 6.83%), economic uncertainty, stock market volatility, and tariff concerns has created a climate where "buyers are scarce and afraid."Despite inventory climbing by nearly 10% compared to last year, buyer urgency has evaporated. As a seasoned real estate investor, I'm adapting my strategy accordingly—pressing pause on flipping properties while doubling down on buy-and-hold multifamily investments for long-term growth. The market demands this pivot, and those who recognize and respond to these shifts will find opportunities even in challenging conditions.Ready to transform your approach to wealth building?
