Rents are skyrocketing, up 11.4% just since the start of this year per Apartment List. Increases like this could mean a 25% increase in your cash flow. Rod Khleif has made big failures. I mean that in the best way. Ultimately, he was willing to fail often in order to become the giant success that he is today. He lost $50M in the 2008 crash, even though his properties were at 30% LTV (70% equity). Rod is a multifamily apartment building investor and syndicator. He motivates many with his successful seminars.   We discuss “The Law Of The First Deal”. Who you spend time with is who you become. He’s an active RE buyer now, with 296 units under contract in San Antonio. However, he sees an economic contraction coming. To hedge against a potential RE market downturn, Rod likes to avoid C-Class property. He likes investing in “A” and “B” areas in southern states.

Today’s guest has been a GRE listener since 2019.  He’s an MBA and Industrial and Manufacturing Engineer at a Fortune 500 Company. He still works at this full-time job. Eric Schodowski learned about GRE and listened from Episode 1. Leverage, arbitrage, and inflation-profiting were new concepts to him. When he switched jobs, he was able to access 401(k) and pension funds. Then, rather than living below his means, he expanded his means. Eric Schodowksi has added 11 rental units: a four-plex in his home market of Baton Rouge, LA,  and turnkey properties in: Memphis, west Florida, and northwest Indiana. His returns have been as high as 120% per year.  Eric prefers turnkey real estate investing because it’s “hands-off”. Turnkeys are designed to perform for investors.

A 60% housing drop is what I’m talking about today. That's the real estate crash. What has driven housing prices 23.4% higher year-over-year? Scarcity, utility, and demand. I’m talking about a housing *supply* crash, not a price crash. The guys from Wealth Without Wall Street, Joey Mure and Russ Morgan, join us. They discuss why Wall Street makes money managers profitable, not individual investors. Most individual investors are so used to abandoning what they really want, that it’s difficult to remember what their dream even is anymore.  Racing to “zero debt” is a losing game for most people.

Fifty years ago, money changed forever. Robert Kiyosaki joins us. He’s the “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” author. President Richard Nixon effectively removed the dollar from the gold standard on August 15th, 1971. We play the audio clip. Inflation ensued, exceeding 10% in the 1970s and 1980s. What is money, anyway? I answer. Gresham’s Law - bad money drives out good. Kiyosaki tells us why he promotes freedom and economic decentralization. My solutions to monetary inflation: 1) Real estate debt. 2) Gold. 3) Bitcoin. 4) Spend.  Resources mentioned: Show Notes: www.GetRichEducation.com/358 Nixon removing dollar from gold standard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-cB1Z9qceI Jerome Powell on dollar printing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lK_rYS8L3kI Buy real estate: www.greturnkey.com Buy gold: www.apmex.com Buy bitcoin: www.coinbase.com Get mortgage loans for investment property: RidgeLendingGroup.com JWB’s available Florida income property: www.CashFlowAndGrowth.com eQRPs: text “EQRP” in ALL CAPS to 72000 or: eQRP.co B

Society and media often lambaste landlords. I discuss an absurd article titled: “Landlord System Morally Unethical… Contributing Nothing To Society”. Some slumlords exist, but many landlords are responsible. Many landlord critics think money is inherently evil. Damion Lupo joins me to discuss what happened at the latest Real Estate Guys’ Investor Summit. The homeownership rate is expected to decrease, meaning more renters. It will take at least a decade to raise housing supply to meet demand. We discuss whether inflation is here to stay or not.

Paid-off properties have an opportunity cost that few consider. Wealthy celebrities that choose mortgages are: Mark Zuckerberg & his wife, Elon Musk, Megan Markle & Prince Harry, Beyonce & Jay-Z, Chrissy Teigen & John Legend, and Charlie Sheen. I personally have held millions in mortgage debt from a young age. I’ve long had the ability to pay it off, have not, and will not. Good debt defined: 1) Secured. 2) Low mortgage interest rate. 3) Payments outsourced to tenants.  How your bank sees your debt: 1) You have insured their collateral. 2) When you improve the property, you improve their collateral. 3) 1-4 unit properties - comparables. 5+ properties - income & debt coverage ratio. The risk of high mortgage debt is being overleveraged. This means you cannot service the debt payments. Chris Naghibi joins me. Though he dispenses financial guidance to celebrities, he helps everyday people qualify for mortgages. We discuss mistakes to avoid with your credit score and debt-to-income ratio. Lear

Legendary investor and business mogul Jim Rogers joins us from Singapore. Inflation is on the rise. I was just asked to leave a tip at Subway for the first time. Inflation nudges most people toward poverty. It moves GRE listeners toward prosperity. Rents for detached SFHs are up 7.9% year-over-year. The NAR just told us America is 6.8 million housing units short of demand. World governments are printing, spending, and driving interest rates to all-time lows. Historically, this has led to higher inflation. I ask Jim Rogers about inflation and the prospects for U.S. hyperinflation.  He believes interest rates will go higher “in the next few years”. He likes tying up 30-year fixed rate mortgages. Jim thinks the free market might take control of interest rate policy away from The Fed (wow!). “The next recession is going to be the worst in my lifetime.” -Jim Rogers Jim Rogers & I also discuss: MMT, agricultural real estate, cryptocurrency, and advice for a young person. I explain what CBDCs are - Central Bank

Rents are up, up, up. This is because surging home prices are displacing the first-time affordable homebuyer. Rich Dad Sales Advisor Blair Singer joins us. He helps you get that “little voice” in your head to tell you the right thing. When you master your little voice, you more often move from employee to business owner or entrepreneur. It takes self-belief. Begin with the end in mind. Blair tells you why you don’t have to be an attack dog in sales. Just help others! I try my sales pitch with Blair, then he tells me that my sales style is a retriever. In a selling situation, the person with the highest energy wins.

Learn the housing price level every year from 1963 to present with an entertaining retrospective - from $18K to $372K. Top takeaways over time: 1) Real estate usually goes up. 2) Real estate does not always go up. Housing rents and prices often correct toward each other. Home prices are rising globally. The highest: Turkey, New Zealand, Luxembourg, and Slovakia. Some of the lower rises are in East Asia. Canadians can hardly believe that Americans get 30-year fixed rate mortgages, 1031 Like-Kind Exchange. Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman believes that high housing demand is cooling off and the market is normalizing. Building a home has never been more expensive. I cover a case study for you about how new-build Boise single-family ranch homes had a sale price increase of $472K up to $747K over the last two years. Your tenant is probably doing better this year than last. Unemployment is down to 5.8%. Rent amounts are more stable than home prices. I draw the line.

Will the rise of 3-D printed homes make housing construction so cheap that values of all existing homes will depreciate? I explore this with you.  It’s the third installment of our 3-part housing supply crisis series. 3-D printing uses lots of concrete. It is the world’s most popular building material. No matter how one builds, there are still costs of: labor, land, materials, design & planning, architecture & engineering, site work & drainage, and regulation. A recent NAHB study shows that the regulatory cost of building a new single-family home is a staggering $94,000.  Resources mentioned: Show Notes: www.GetRichEducation.com/347 $94K Regulatory Cost To Build A New Home: https://www.nahb.org/news-and-economics/industry-news/press-releases/2021/05/regulatory-costs-add-a-whopping-93870-to-new-home-prices Get mortgage loans for investment property: RidgeLendingGroup.com JWB’s available Florida income property: www.CashFlowAndGrowth.com Ali Boone’s Recommended Book: https://amzn.to/2NsMVlF EQRPs: t

A shipping container costs less than $5,000. Why doesn’t America build more housing with them? Gregg Cohen of JWB Real Estate Capital in Jacksonville, FL reveals how their 18-unit shipping container apartment complex created financial loss. The shipping container apartments are 320 square feet each. Learn about: what a vertically integrated company is, build-to-rent homes, turnkey real estate, the pros and cons of shipping container housing, permitting, and zoning constraints.  Making shipping containers livable adds expense: windows, heating, cooling, electricity, water, ventilation and fire safety.  JWB blew their budget! $1.3M budget vs. $2M reality.  Gregg estimates that shipping container building costs them 20-30% more than conventional wood frame construction.

Kristin B. Tate (FOX News, CNN, MSNBC) joins me to discuss Biden tax and housing policies, inflation, and investing. President Joseph R. Biden, Jr.’s bill to create a $15,000 first-time homebuyer tax credit is wrong. It helps the demand side. America needs help on the supply side. I give ideas. Biden wants to severely limit the 1031 Tax-Deferred Exchange for real estate investors. Only your first $500K of gains would be exempt from capital gains tax. This would cause a rush of sales in the real estate market. It would also hurt long-term liquidity for larger apartment buildings.  Zumper’s National Rent Report shows substantial rent increases in many Midwest and South real estate markets. I detail them. Next, Kristin B. Tate tells us why printing trillions of dollars means that investors should get out of the dollar. We discuss Joe Biden’s proposed increases to both income tax and capital gains tax. Kristin favors buying real estate assets to hedge against inflation: real estate, physical gold & silver, an

Today, available homes are as scarce as a rare earth mineral.  Under 500K homes are available for sale today, well below the historic 1M-1.5M at any given time Source: Federal Reserve. High demand exists independent of low inventory. Developers and homebuilders need years to help us build our way out. The development team of Rob Fuller and Jared Garfield tell us how today’s developers cope with the rising cost and unpredictable supply of: copper, lumber, PVC and other building materials. Their project in Colorado Springs, CO is in the path of progress. In 2019, U.S. News & World Report named the area the #1 Economy In America. The Denver Post stated that by 2050, Colorado Springs will be larger than Denver. (Wow) The project is 800 acres of higher-end homes on 2.5-acre lots. Homes start in the high $600Ks. That does not work for cash flow via direct ownership. This is not “spec building”. Homeowners have already funded with non-refundable earnest money. You can project a construction loan to the project y

Three reasons NOT to buy income property: 1) It is illiquid. 2) Speculative mania without cash flow. 3) You want zero involvement. With that understanding, direct ownership of rental real estate still has the best risk-adjusted return today. President Biden wants to keep people in their homes. He doesn’t want residents removed from their homes under his watch - both homeowners and renters. Higher mortgage interest rates lead to both higher prices and lower supply. This is counterintuitive to many. I explain why.  The last six times that interest rates rose in America, housing prices rose too. I read the menu prices from McDonald’s restaurant in 1974. It makes inflation’s effect apparent. Then Ken McElroy joins me. Together we discuss how inflation affects consumers and real estate investors from an in-person video at his Scottsdale, AZ office. Ken reminds us how high inflation can go. It was 15% for a time in the 1980s. Resources mentioned: KenMcElroy.com Show Notes: www.GetRichEducation.com/342 Get mortgage
