  • Buying a House Could Get Easier for Millennials. There's Just One Big Problem...
    Apr 25 2025
    The housing market could do something it’s never done before—permanently reverse. For as long as home prices have been recorded, they’ve always increased over time. But, with one of the largest generations, the Baby Boomers, aging out, and household formation shrinking as birth rates decline, we could face a new problem—insufficient demand. This is a huge problem for Millennials and the Gen Z generation since buying a house, the primary asset that makes up the majority of many Americans’ net worth, may not be the same wise financial decision as it was before. James Rodriguez joins us on the show to break down his recent article, The millennial homebuying predicament, and why buying a home may get easier for the younger generations, but it could come with less long-term payoff. For years, economists speculated that a “silver tsunami” would flood the housing market with inventory. What actually ensued, however, was more of a “silver glacier,” since we’re still millions of housing units short. But once these boomer-owned homes hit the market, will prices grow, stall, or decline? What happens to home prices if the population stagnates or reverses? Does buying a home become a riskier decision? James is on to help us answer these questions and share which homes could be the safest bet for long-term demand. In This Episode We Cover The demographic dropoff that could transform the housing market forever Properties with the most (and least) demand as household sizes shrink With population concerns, does buying a house become a much riskier decision? The “silver glacier” that’s slowly melting and bringing inventory to the market Could immigration solve America’s population replacement problem? And So Much More!

  • Price Cuts Ahead: Zillow Downgrades 2025 Housing Market Forecast
    Apr 24 2025
    More price cuts could be coming this year. Zillow just made headlines by revising its 2025 housing market forecast, now predicting home values to drop in much of the United States. But do other top housing market forecasters agree, and if home prices fall this year, does it put you in a better position as an investor to lock down discounted deals? Dave is unpacking Zillow’s new prediction, plus sharing his own take on what might happen next. This is not the first time Zillow has revised its 2025 housing market forecast. They’ve updated their predictions several times throughout the year, with the newest release being the most negative for home prices. Some markets in the US are even predicted to see drops of up to 10%—other markets could have price growth, while the rest of the nation struggles. What’s causing the downward trend in home prices? Is it tariffs, inflation fears, signs of a recession, or just too much housing supply and insufficient demand? We’re breaking it down in this episode. If you plan on buying or selling this year, don’t miss this. In This Episode We Cover: Zillow’s new 2025 housing market forecast and why price declines seem likely The best and worst housing markets for home price growth (some could fall by 10%) What Fannie Mae, Wells Fargo, and JP Morgan are predicting for 2025 home prices Is this the start of a housing market crash, or just a break for buyers?

  • 3 Types of Rentals That Make You Rich in 2025 (Actual Deals)
    Apr 23 2025
    These rental property deals are making us richer in 2025, even with high housing prices and interest rates. Everyone thinks it’s impossible to find cash-flowing rental properties in today’s housing market, but this is NOT the truth. We’re going to show you three real rental property deals we’re buying in 2025. All of these are being purchased in 2025—these are NOT cheap deals from 2020 with 3% - 4% interest rates. Each one will build major equity, cash flow, or both. Dave brought backup on this episode—the entire expert panel from the On the Market podcast—to share real deals they’re doing right now. We’ve got three to go through—a $55,000 heavy rehab rental property that will also serve as Henry’s own vacation home, a new build rental property at a super reasonable $214,000 price, and finally, a very creative (but somewhat costly) land-banking deal in Seattle, Washington. Each of these deals ranges in expertise needed. Some of the heavier rehab projects may require a few years of renovation experience, while Kathy’s new build deal is a profitable rental ANYONE can buy right now. Regardless of your experience, you can copy these strategies and get richer with these rentals! In This Episode We Cover Three profitable real estate deals you can do RIGHT NOW in 2025 How to buy a brand new rental property, with a low interest rate, for just around $200,000 How Henry is turning a $55,000 disaster house into a $265,000 top-tier rental James’s super creative way to make $300,000 on land in high-demand areas The best investment if you’ve got a busy job, a family to take care of, or just a hectic schedule And So Much More!

  • I Turned My Condo into a $10K+/Month Rental Portfolio (in 4 Years!)
    Apr 21 2025
    Andrew Freed turned one condo into a rental property portfolio that makes him $10,000 per month! Just four years ago, Andrew had little to his name—around $50,000 and a $200,000 condo. That’s what a decade of working had gotten him, but to Andrew, it was a sign he wasn’t doing enough. Like most real estate investors, Andrew stumbled upon Rich Dad Poor Dad and made an immediate change that would propel him to financial freedom. Four years later, he’s there—quitting his job and going full-time into real estate. How did he do it? Simple. “Recycling” his money is what allowed Andrew to scale so quickly. A HELOC (home equity line of credit) on his condo gave him the money for his first small multifamily—a house hack that would help him live for free. With each new property, he’d get a new HELOC and use it to grow his portfolio even faster. Now, Andrew has a sizable real estate portfolio, personally paying him six figures a year, while he focuses on the next property. If you want to quit your job and give real estate your all, you can do what Andrew did, recycling your money to build your wealth—and you can start with just a condo! In This Episode We Cover: How to use HELOCs (home equity lines of credit) to quickly fund your first real estate deal Using the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) to buy rentals for essentially $0 The “sweet spot” multifamily properties that are easier to manage and boast big cash flow How to take down huge real estate deals when you don’t have the money Why buying portfolios of properties (not single properties) is the cheat code for faster financial freedom And So Much More!

  • April 2025 Housing Market Update: Prices to Weaken, Buyers Get Better Bargains
    Apr 18 2025
    Home prices could weaken, bringing big bargains to patient buyers who’ve been sitting on the sidelines. The housing market is seeing some turbulence, even if it remains more stable than other parts of the economy. Inventory is rising, and sellers are in a tough position, with many buyers still waiting out the market. Stock sell-offs and tariffs are keeping fear high, and the housing market could freeze because of it. Where is the housing market headed? We’re catching you up on all the data and big headlines in this April 2025 housing market update. First up: inventory. A few years ago, there was none—now, we may have too much. More homes are hitting the market, which could spell trouble for sellers. With inflation fears and stock market uncertainty dragging down demand, prices may soften. Don’t worry, this isn’t another 2008, even though a certain “delinquency chart” would have you thinking so. We’re also hitting on the condo market and why more than half of condo sellers should prepare to accept an under-asking price…and this could be just the start. In This Episode We Cover: April 2025 housing market update: home prices, inventory, mortgage rates, and more Why inventory is rising so quickly now and what it means for buyers (good news?) Home price predictions and whether or not we’ll see prices fall even more in inventory-heavy markets The condo market’s notable sign of weakness and why price drops are becoming more common With more economic pain, will foreclosures increase?

  • The World Has Changed, But THIS Is Still the Best Way to Invest in Real Estate
    Apr 16 2025
    Real estate investing in 2025 has huge, underrated potential to make you wealthy—but hardly anyone is talking about it. As tariffs, mortgage rates, and stock market volatility take over the news cycle, average Americans are turning away from time-tested investments like real estate and worrying about unstable markets instead. This could be a huge mistake because, as I’m about to show you, the ability to get rich with real estate has not disappeared—if anything, the opportunity has grown. For months, I’ve been talking about how we’re entering the “upside” era of real estate investing—a time when patient, prudent investors can make a killing by pinpointing often-overlooked opportunities. Today, I’m sharing the exact “upsides” to look for in 2025 and how I’m buying real estate deals RIGHT NOW that will make me wealthier in the not-so-far future. Even better? I’m proving how real estate BEATS your other investments—especially during turbulent times. Stocks, bonds, cryptocurrency, and even private businesses can’t hold a candle to real estate. Now is the time to get in, and if you don’t, you can be sure other investors will pick up what you missed, building their financial freedom where you could have built yours! In This Episode We Cover: The “upside” era explained and seven different ways to build wealth through real estate NOW Real estate vs. stocks vs. cryptocurrency vs. businesses: which reigns supreme? How to achieve financial freedom in just a decade if you start investing NOW Real “upside” deal examples Dave is doing now to build wealth in today’s market Huge economic tailwinds real estate has over the next few years (if not much longer) And So Much More!

  • I Bought My First Rental in 2021, Now I Have 19 and Replaced My Salary!
    Apr 14 2025
    This high school football coach grew a real estate side hustle over the past four years that now replaces his W2 income. He did it making a median salary, all while working his full-time job and raising his family. He didn’t use flashy methods, risky strategies, or constant cold calling. Starting with around $30,000, Lamontis Gardner went from zero to 19 rental units in just four years and is STILL growing! After pandemic lockdowns left Lamontis with extra time and little work, he knew he needed to stop solely relying on his W2 income to fuel his life. Of course, Rich Dad Poor Dad found its way into his hands, and the real estate bug began. From there, Lamontis turned a lost deal into an opportunity to buy three duplexes from one owner. The problem? He only had a third of the money. It was time to partner up! After a home run first real estate deal that gave him a six-figure equity upside, Lamontis knew this was the path for him. Since then, he’s been buying rentals, flipping houses, and doing whatever he can to reinvest in real estate, all while working his W2 job. Now, he’s replaced his W2 income but is STILL growing his portfolio even in 2025’s high-rate, “tough” housing market. Want to do the same? Copy Lamontis’s strategy! In This Episode We Cover How to invest in real estate when you don’t have enough money for a down payment Why you DON’T need to cold call in order to find great off-market real estate deals The easiest (and most profitable) homes to flip that ANYONE can find on-market Why section 8 rentals are not what you think (and might be as good or better than regular rentals) When to flip vs. renovate and rent a house (telltale signs of a great flip/bad rental) How Lamontis scaled to 19 rentals and multiple flips per year WITHOUT a big team And So Much More!
