Banks must take risks with your money because they don’t charge you fees. Banks used to have a 10:1 reserve ratio. As of March 2020, all reserve requirements are now eliminated. Rather than storing lots of money at the bank, borrow lots of money from the bank. US households own $41T of owner-occupied property—$29T in equity, $12T in debt. The national LTV ratio is 30%, historically low. That’s 70% equity. Of the five ways real estate pays: one profit source is the market, two are from the tenant’s job, and two come from the government. Many Millennials plan to rent forever. 63% have nothing saved for a down payment. The interest-rate lock in effect keeps constraining the available supply of homes. This forces more homebuilders to build. Last week, NBC Nightly News covered the rise of build-to-rent communities. Resources mentioned: Show Notes: www.GetRichEducat

HGTV Star, Tarek El Moussa joins me today. Incredibly, he got into TV with no experience and no contacts. What a story! Apartment and multifamily construction is staying heightened. Conversely, few new single-family homes are being built. We’re now hiring at GRE. Tarek hustles. His life took a turn when he attended a motivational Tom Ferry real estate seminar. To flip a property, he began to identify distressed properties with expired listings. Today, he tells us why he actually targets pending listings for acquisitions. When he got a show with HGTV, Tarek was only doing his first-ever flip. He also didn’t have the money to acquire distressed property for flips. Tarek didn’t even know how to flip! But HGTV immediately wanted him to flip 13 houses in 10 months. Tarek is best at finding and negotiating deals. He outsources other tasks. He chose contractors that specialize in fix & flip renovations.  Tarek discovers them by looking at rehabbed property listings, calling the sales agent, and asking for the co

Get started with new-build Florida duplexes, triplexes, and quads right here.  Conventional personal finance says that you should be able to put in your time, effort, and energy when you're young. When you're older, you can live a great life knocking back drinks served in coconuts. That's being severely threatened. Throughout history, some humans have perpetrated malicious time theft on other humans. Murder and slavery are extreme versions. You're likely the victim of more subtle versions. If you're working at a job, then you're selling your time, effort, and energy into the marketplace. The proxy (currency) that you're receiving in exchange for the finite resources that you expended tangibly represents what you've sacrificed. With dollar inflation blatantly debasing your currency from beneath you, your human life capital is being stolen.
