Podcasts about Sun Belt

John Chang interviews Josh Jacobs about why the long-anticipated wave of multifamily distress is finally showing up across select Sun Belt markets. Josh explains how aggressive bridge financing, rising interest rates, slower rent growth, and new supply have converged to force lender-driven sales, receiverships, and recapitalizations—particularly in Gulf Coast states. He breaks down how debt funds, banks, LPs, and preferred equity are navigating defaults, why many sponsors are being wiped out, and what actually happens when lenders step in. The conversation closes with a clear-eyed look at where disciplined investors may find opportunity as pricing resets heading into 2026.

Prices are shifting, chemicals are spiking, and margins get squeezed fastest when your billing model hides the true cost of service. We unpack the 2026 State of the Pool Service Report from Skimmer and turn its data into moves you can make this week—clear regional benchmarks, smarter billing, and a simple plan to stop giving away chemicals.For the full Skimmer 2026 Report:  https://hubs.la/Q03_zvF80 We start with the numbers: average monthly service near 225 dollars in key Sunbelt markets, plus common rates for openings, closings, filter cleaning, and salt cell maintenance. Then we dig into why 76 percent of companies still prefer monthly billing and how it quietly stabilizes revenue compared with per stop invoicing. From there, we map a practical transition to a hybrid chemical model: tablets and shock billed to the client, specialty chemicals as pass-throughs, and a small maintenance dose included so most invoices stay steady while heavy-use pools pay their way.Cash flow gets a boost with deposits on repairs and installs. You'll hear why a 50 percent deposit or set booking fee reduces cancellations, funds equipment purchases upfront, and shortens the money gap on bigger jobs. We also share where pros are sourcing—Pool Corp and Heritage remain dominant thanks to price and availability—and how brand ecosystems differ by region, with Pentair leading in many Sunbelt markets and Hayward stronger on the East Coast.We close with easy, low-friction price adjustments customers rarely fight: inch filter cleanings toward triple digits, align salt cell service with market averages, and keep monthly rates competitive for your area. If you want a resilient pool business, use data to guide your pricing, make billing transparent, and remove the profit leaks hiding in chemicals. • Regional price benchmarks and what they mean• Monthly billing versus per stop billing trade-offs• When and how to charge for chemicals• How to phase in tablet and shock billing• Deposit policies that reduce risk• Supplier and brand preferences Send us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

App State made some clutch shots down the stretch to earn a road win over Southern Miss, 70-63, to move one win back of first place in the standings. Listen back to the highlights and analysis as well as postgame interviews with Dustin Kerns and Jalen Tot.

Pascal Wagner interviews Jon Brooks, who breaks down why today's real estate market is sending mixed signals—and why getting that interpretation wrong can have real financial consequences. Jon explains how decades of falling interest rates created a powerful tailwind for real estate that no longer exists, especially in overbuilt Sunbelt markets like Florida. The conversation explores what's actually breaking versus what's simply slowing down, including rising insurance and tax costs, declining affordability, demographic headwinds, and stalled migration. Jon also shares why he sold his entire personal real estate portfolio, pivoted into private lending, and ultimately shifted capital into equities as risk-return dynamics changed. This matters because many investors are still relying on outdated assumptions about appreciation, cash flow, and long-term demand. Understanding how interest rates, demographics, and market psychology intersect helps investors reassess where risk is no longer being adequately compensated—and how to position capital without relying on the market to “save” them.

Recorded at the CBRE Women's Network Power of WE conference, this episode offers a rapid-fire, insights-rich tour of major U.S. commercial real estate markets. Our subject-matter experts provide inside views of how different regions are navigating supply, demand and economic forces—from industrial and logistics to multifamily, office and retail—and insights on where investors and occupiers may find value in 2026.National CRE outlook, including signs of asset repricing stabilization, improving liquidity and transactions momentum. Industrial dynamics in Southern California, from manufacturing fundamentals and port-driven demand to pockets of strength and ongoing vacancy challenges. Sector trends, including data centers, alternative assets, big‑box scarcity, rent trends, and how corporate occupiers are re‑entering the market. Multifamily performance across gateways, the Sun Belt and the Midwest, driven by slowing construction cycles, demographic patterns and evolving investor interest. Emerging and opportunity markets, from South Carolina's growth to resurgent metros like San Francisco, Seattle, Phoenix and smaller high-growth cities such as Boise.

John Chang gives listeners a wide-ranging outlook on the 2026 commercial real estate landscape, drawing from recent industry webcasts, capital market data, and his upcoming conversations with investors at NMHC. He explains why rising cap rates and falling borrowing costs have reset real estate returns to some of the most attractive levels seen in over a decade, even as broader economic uncertainty grows. John breaks down how slowing job creation, shifting migration patterns, and heavy Sunbelt development are creating near-term pressure for multifamily—especially Class B and C assets—while lower-development markets continue to show resilience. He also explores why institutional capital is quietly flowing back into commercial real estate, what gold prices may be signaling about investor sentiment, and where he sees risks and opportunities across multifamily, retail, office, industrial, and self-storage heading into 2026.

In this episode of Excess Returns, Redfin Chief Economist Daryl Fairweather joins Matt Zeigler to unpack what she calls the Great Housing Reset. Rather than a housing crash or correction, Fairweather argues the market is entering a multi year transition toward something more normal, where incomes gradually catch up to home prices and affordability improves at the margin.

John Chang interviews Ben Lapidus, host of the Best Ever Conference, to discuss how commercial real estate investors are repositioning after several challenging years. Ben explains that sentiment has shifted from survival to selective action, with opportunity emerging outside traditional Sun Belt multifamily and into niche strategies like industrial, neighborhood retail, and specialized development plays. They explore why many LPs are consolidating capital with a smaller group of trusted operators, how scale and platform size can now suppress returns, and why unique investment theses are outperforming generic value-add strategies. Ben also shares why his long-term bias favors real estate over equities, emphasizing tangible value, basis plays, and adaptability as markets reset heading into the next cycle.

Corporate buyers, especially in hot Sunbelt markets, swoop in with all-cash offers, buy entire neighborhoods at discounts, game the comps, and price real families out of the market. That part of the problem is very real.But here's the catch: this plan likely won't survive legal or congressional scrutiny—and even if it did, it ignores the hundreds of thousands of homes already owned by corporations. Meanwhile, Democrats are opposing Trump while pushing the same failed playbook: subsidies, giveaways, and policies that inflate demand without fixing supply—the same thinking that helped fuel the Great Recession.In this episode, Chris explains why banning corporate buyers by decree won't work, why “lower mortgage rates” won't fix affordability, and how property tax policy offers a clean, constitutional solution. Favor owner-occupied homes, make speculative ownership less attractive, and change the incentives instead of distorting the market. If we're serious about making housing affordable again, there's a smarter way to do it—and it benefits everyone.

Send us a textThe housing map just redrew itself, and the early signals are hiding in plain sight. We dig into real-time, spending-based migration data that shows a clear turn: several Sunbelt magnets are shifting to net outbound while Midwest and select Northeast cities pull in new residents. This isn't about trendiness or last cycle's headlines—it's about affordability, supply, and how many people are actually moving right now.We break down why move rates are down roughly a third from their peak and what that means for markets that relied on a constant inflow of buyers. Expect a nuanced price picture: national home prices have slipped for the first time in two years, but the declines concentrate in parts of the South and Mountain West. Meanwhile, Indianapolis, Columbus, and even Cleveland are gaining ground as payment-to-income ratios stay within reach and inventory remains manageable. We compare Atlanta's rapid run-up and rising supply to Chicago's tighter market, showing how overshoot risk turns into seller pressure when demand cools.There's also a twist where few expected it: segments of downtown San Francisco are stabilizing as AI-driven wealth returns, inventory tightens, and high-end demand reappears. The takeaway is simple and powerful—housing is local, capital seeks opportunity, and affordability is destiny. Sellers in softening markets need surgical pricing and fast adjustments to avoid stale listings. Buyers should anchor decisions on payment ratios, supply velocity, and durable local demand instead of hype. If you want to make a smart move in a noisy market, follow the data, not the narrative.Subscribe for more data-backed insights, share this episode with a friend who's house hunting, and leave a review to tell us what market you're watching next.

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

Trey Morgan and Derek Copeland of Sentinel Grove Partners pull back the curtain on the high-stakes world of restaurant real estate and private equity. The trio explores the critical importance of the landlord-tenant relationship, viewing it as a long-term partnership rather than a mere transaction, and discusses the shift toward a "landlord's market" in high-growth regions like the Sunbelt. Beyond the numbers, Trey and Derek emphasize that successful investing is about "betting the jockey, not the horse," highlighting how exceptional leadership, staff retention, and clear succession planning are the true indicators of a concept's longevity in an unpredictable economy.10 Key Takeaways Interview Your Landlord: A lease is only as good as the people behind it. Talk to existing tenants to see how the landlord handles crises before signing. Bet the Jockey, Not the Horse: A great concept (the horse) will fail with a poor operator, but a great operator (the jockey) can pivot and save a concept during a "black swan" event like COVID-19. The "Disproportionate" Equity Model: A popular funding structure involves paying investors back 100% of their capital first; once de-risked, the profit split shifts in favor of the operator. Staff Longevity as a Metric: High retention (e.g., staff staying 20+ years) is the ultimate green flag for investors, signaling a healthy culture and operational stability. The "Landlord's Market": In high-growth areas like the Southeast, low vacancy and high demand mean rents are spiking, requiring operators to be faster and more prepared during negotiations. Banking is still Face-to-Face: Despite digital trends, walking into a branch and looking a lender in the eye is still the best way to secure capital for a restaurant. The Rule of Three Banks: Operators should maintain 2–3 banking relationships, as individual banks may lose their "appetite" for the restaurant sector depending on the economic cycle. Inflation Beyond Rent: It's not just the base rent; skyrocketing "Triple Net" (NNN) costs—taxes, insurance, and maintenance—are the biggest current headwinds for operators. Succession Planning is Mandatory: Investors need to know what happens if the founder "gets hit by a bus." A business that can't run without its owner is a risky investment. Tenant Mix Matters: Successful real estate development requires a balance; too many restaurants in one center creates parking "cannibalization," hurting everyone's sales.
