2075: The Coming Perfect Housing Storm

Jason Hartman shares updates on a new program for empowered investors in episode 2075. They introduced the Empowered Investor Guides program, offering specialized guidance to property investors. The program aims to help property owners convert tenants into tenant buyers, increasing deposits and reducing the need for property management. Additionally, Jason discussed the strong equity positions of homeowners, with most having significant equity in their properties, making a housing crash unlikely. He also touched on the need to address housing affordability issues. Melody Wright returns as she discusses the oversaturation of the real estate market, particularly in the build-for-rent and multi-family sectors. She points out that the boom in building luxury properties and the overpricing of homes have resulted in an oversupply. Many builders have ignored the need for affordable housing, and there might be a need for government intervention to subsidize write-downs on overpriced properties. Wright also highlights the impact of demographic shifts, with fewer babies being born and boomers retiring, and their effects on housing trends. #Investment #RealEstate #EmpoweredInvestor #Housing #Equity #PropertyManagement #Affordability Key Takeaways: Jason's Editorial 1:26 FireYourManager.com 6:57 Ready for a soft landing 9:14 The COVID jobs recovery is complete (and then some) 9:52 Negative equity rates among mortgaged residential houses 13:36 Turning back the clocks on housing 14:25 More on housing affordability next week Melody Wright Interview part 2 15:30 Build to Rent 26:43 Demographics on household formation during covid, affordability and the new builds 36:54 Action steps Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class: Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

2072: Devastating NAR Real Estate Class Action Lawsuit- Is this the END

Jason discusses a significant legal case that could reshape the real estate industry. The case involves allegations of price-fixing and antitrust violations by major players in the industry, including the National Association of Realtors. A Missouri jury found NAR and several big brokerages guilty of conspiring to inflate commissions, potentially resulting in a massive financial impact. Hartman provides insights into the real estate industry, the role of commissions, and the potential implications of the case. He believes the commissions are too high due to the industry's oversaturation, leading agents to spend a significant amount on marketing to secure transactions. He also suggests that technology platforms like Zillow could benefit from the case, as it may lead to a more direct relationship between buyers and agents. #RealEstate #AntitrustLaws #PriceFixing #NationalAssociationOfRealtors #RealEstateCommissions #LegalCase #MarketDisruption #RealEstateIndustry #BuyersAgent #Cooperation #Commissions #Competition Key Takeaways: 1:28 An earthquake just hit the real estate industry 3:05 IS the NAR a cartel 4:00 Conspiring to inflate commissions 4:58 A 5 billion lawsuit and Jason's civil RICO case 8:15 Jason's commentary on a CNBC Video: Real Estate Commissions Under Fire 12:56 Buyer's agent adds great value to the transaction 18:50 NAR as a cartel 25:18 Higher Commission costs in the US 27:46 REMAX stocks versus the rest 29:37 American Bar Association & New York Bar Association 'Contingency Fees' 32:35 Anti-Trust Laws, the definition and pros and cons of a cartel 36:15 Real Estate: A Dysfunctional Industry 37:51 What's next and Jason's BIG Disruptor Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class: Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

2068: Declining Home Sales- What It Means for Investors and Renters with Selma Hepp

Shout out from Rio de Janeiro where Jason opines that BRICS and their attempt at circumventing America's currency and challenging the US dollar's hegemony is not much to be alarmed over. Then Jason welcomes Selma Hepp, the Chief Economist of Core Logic. They discuss the challenging state of the real estate market and noted that the market was facing issues due to rising mortgage rates, which led to a decline in transactions and mortgage refinances. Additionally, she highlighted that existing homeowners were benefiting from this situation due to their low mortgage rates and increasing equity. Selma also pointed out that the volume of home sales was down by 18% last year and was expected to decline by a similar amount this year, while mortgage origins were likely to be down by 30-35%. She also mentioned that the inventory of available homes for sale was at its lowest level historically, a quarter of where it was before the great recession. Despite this challenging market, Selma didn't expect much change until the spring of next year.
