56: Understanding Inflation - Having the Proper Mindset When Investing in Real Estate
The first key to understanding inflation is to recognize the difference between real and nominal. If you think about a physical $100 bill, it is easy to understand that 50 years ago, it was still a $100 bill. We called it the same thing, it looked (mostly) the same when you held it in your hands. But it was the same in a nominal way—in name only. A $100 bill did not buy the same amount of things 50 years ago. Instead, the value fluctuates constantly. Recently, you may have noticed examples of fluctuating prices in places like shopping malls. While holiday sales used to happen after the holiday, retailers now offer price saving opportunities before the holiday, despite the fact that it cuts into their bottom line.  We're entering a different economic time. It is also important to distinguish between price and value. Temporary appreciation of money is great—but it should be taken advantage of with an attention to time. Money that is more valuable in the short term should be immediately exchanged for packaged commodities, like real estate. Then, you've got a mortgage that is locked in the price of borrowing for thirty years. Price and value are two different things, so take a tip from Jason Hartman and make sure you understand the difference. Remember Joe the Plumber? His fifteen minutes of fame came after he said, "Obama, you're going to raise my taxes and redistribute wealth." But taxes are the amateur's game of wealth redistribution because it is so obvious. When people are taxed, they get upset. Inflation is less obvious that taxation and is therefore the superior wealth redistribution tool. Inflation destroys the value of stocks, savings, bonds, equity. You may have heard that real estate is an excellent hedge against inflation. If you've got a real estate portfolio work $1 million in equity, in ten years, we don't exactly know the value. But we can make an educated guess that it's going to be worth less than it is today. Being a millionaire isn't as difficult as it used to be. If you sell your million dollars in properties today, these dollars are worth more than dollars in ten years. As you can see, equity is under attack because it is nominated in dollars. You shouldn't have equity because it is always susceptible to risk—instead, as Jason Hartman says, Refi Till You Die!       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

55: The Great Housing Shortage and the Rent vs. Buy Dilemma | Is Owning a Home Still a Good Investment in Today's Market? Richard Ross Part 2
Jason and Richard of Quinn Residences finish up their conversation about the current state of the housing market, which is facing a significant shortage, particularly for affordable homes. Rising home prices, interest rates, and maintenance costs have made homeownership more expensive than renting. Builders are focusing on constructing more expensive houses, further contributing to the shortage. While renting offers lower monthly costs, it lacks the potential investment benefits of homeownership. Additionally, the rental market is tight, and rent prices have been increasing. Manufactured housing and 3D-printed homes are not seen as viable solutions due to various factors, including stigma and high costs.   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

54: The Rise of Build-to-Rent: The Growing Influence of Institutional Investors with Richard Ross of Quinn Residences Part 1
The build-to-rent (BTR) trend is growing, with institutional players becoming more involved in the real estate market. Richard Ross, CEO of Quinn Residences, discusses the factors driving the demand for BTR homes, including a shortage of affordable housing, aging millennials, and the pandemic's impact on living preferences. He also highlights the increasing number of renters by choice and the potential for growth in the BTR sector. The chart shows that the BTR market share is still relatively small compared to traditional rental housing, but it's expected to grow significantly in the coming years due to various factors.     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

FFR 48 - Did Severe Winter Weather Hurt Housing?
Blame Boreas, Cleon and Electra for a slowdown in housing on the East coast this winter. According to a new Bloomberg report, those harsh winter storms may have accounted at least partly for a slowdown in housing activity on the East Coast. And that points up one of Jason Harman’s key strategies fro investing success: diversify. For people living in the East and Midwest, the New Year brought a series of extreme winter storms that walloped the area with subfreezing temperatures, snow and ice storms. Named after figures in Greek and Roman mythology, these weather fronts scooped up polar air and whipped it with high winds to create a “polar vortex” that was even visible from space. These storms affected every aspect of life in the affected areas, so it’s no surprise that they could put a dent in the housing recovery too. Sales of existing homes fell in January 2014 to levels not seen in over a year, and experts say weather most likely played a significant role in the slowdown in some areas. It’s not the first time that weather has had an effect on housing – a similar situation followed the “Super storm” Sandy of a couple of years ago as well. The unusually cold weather – this past January was the coldest since 1994 – also contributed to a slowdown in other economic sectors such as employment. And that also has a direct impact on the housing recovery and the ability of buyers to qualify for and sustain a mortgage. But the hard-hit East Coast wasn’t the only area to see a slowdown in housing sales – and that means other factors such as higher mortgage rates and tighter standards for borrowing also contributed to a slow period. And in some areas, the supply of available properties also hit levels not seen in the past year as well. Is the slowdown temporary? It’s too soon to say. The Federal Reserve is going forward with its plans to taper down its stimulus program – a hint that they don’t see the current situation as permanent. And conditions are different in various areas of he country, where weather wasn’t a major factor in the equation. But the stats emerging after the January freeze give even more weight to Jason Hartman’s Commandment for Successful Investing: “Thou shalt diversify.” Wise investors who want to build wealth need to spread holdings over as many markets as possible. Buying properties in more than one market offers some protection if a market is hard hit by storms, economic downturns or other factors. Diversifying outside an investor’s local markets also opens doors to new opportunities in places where the factors that affect market slowdowns are less of an issue – winter storm warnings aren’t as likely to affect the housing inventory in the West, for example, And those other factors, too, may play a different role. Cleon and his friends may play their own part in a temporary housing slowdown. But smart investors can soften the blow – and the effects of other factors too – by following Jason Hartman’s advice to cast a wider net for profitable income properties.
