The Truth: The Housing Market is going into Depression.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
the housing market is one of the largest
contributors to wealth in people's lives
the average net worth of a homeowner
after all is nearly 20 times that of a
tenant and a fall in home prices are
expected to destroy already low consumer
confidence and lead to less spending
potentially pushing us into a recession
we already know that for every one
hundred thousand dollars in net worth
someone loses they tend to spend two
thousand to three thousand dollars less
per year a statistic that is very
concerning given that together in the
united states we have amassed a
43.4 trillion dollar housing market and
folks
let this be a warning to you the housing
market disaster just got worse now sure
you might be thinking come on home
prices are at record highs like what do
you mean things have getting worse it
sounds pretty good well that's what
you're going to learn in this video
first you're going to see why the fed is
fueling the fire to destroy housing and
actually increase inflation before they
decrease it which is a substantial irony
then you'll see the cracks forming in
the housing market i'll give you
evidence with what home builders are
telling you right now
and you'll learn what to watch for so
that way you can be in a position to
profit
first let's talk about and learn about
inertial inflation and its impact on the
federal reserve and how it ironically
can increase inflation before it can
lead inflation to go down
and how it crushes the housing market
the federal reserve has already raised
rates to one and a half a percent at the
fed funds rate and we're now expecting
the fed to raise rates all the way up to
three and a half to four and a quarter
percent potentially all in an effort to
stamp out inflation they're now mostly
single mandate goal and inflation at all
costs even if that means the destruction
of wealth of americans and potentially
even twice the joblessness rate we face
that we have today but folks there's a
fundamental flaw in the way that
inflation is calculated
33 percent of inflation is awaited on
what's known as owner's equivalent rents
to try to get an understanding as to
what people's housing expenses and how
their housing expenses are changing over
time however this reported rent does not
accurately reflect what market rents are
in fact there's a very clear lag between
market rents increasing and owner's
equivalent rents increasing most
research including the projection chart
on screen from jpmorgan suggests that
owner's equivalent rents lag by about
six months and this creates really
massive issues in a board of governors
discussion paper by the federal reserve
titled monetary policy housing rents and
inflation dynamics we learned of
something very ugly that when the fed
tries to get inflation under control by
raising rates they have the effect of
increasing mortgage rates that can drive
more people to rent properties driving
up the cost of rent while reducing the
availability of homes for rent again
contributing to an increase in the cost
of rent then six months later higher
rents show up in cpi inflation and this
is the substantial irony that the more
the fed raises rates
the more people are driven to renting
and not buying because buying becomes
substantially unaffordable and now the
fed is actually driving up something
that has a one-third weight in inflation
so even if airfares were to come down or
even if apparel or used car prices came
down leading inflation to come down they
might be immediately offset by increases
in the owner's equivalent rents which is
sort of a misleading way of measuring
housing and rent inflation anyway but
this is ironic again when the federal
reserve and we know this when the
federal reserve raises rates buyers lose
purchasing power to the tune of about 10
percent per 1 percent increase in
mortgage rates so if mortgage rates go
up 3 percent buyers lose about 30
percent in purchasing power
but if at the same time the federal
reserve is actually driving up one of
the heaviest weights in the inflation
basket
then the fed is actually creating more
pain in the short term by raising rates
driving up the costs of rent also
driving up the cost of producing goods
again via increased wholesale prices
credit lines you name it and so what
ends up happening before things get
better things get worse and that could
lead the federal reserve to raise
mortgage rates even
more than they actually need to
leading the housing market to experience
even more pain and folks the cracks are
everywhere yesterday lennar reported
earnings they are the second largest
home builder in the united states that's
been building homes for almost 70 years
take a look at some of the sections from
the lennar earnings call
some would call it a disaster and what
you're about to see is a warning that
should make you really interested in
preparing yourself in getting ready for
what's to come but see we don't get
taught about real estate in schools or
by most of our parents i feel blessed to
be part of a real estate family who's
been buying below market wedge deals and
property managing professionally for 40
years and as a real estate broker for
over 10 years a former licensed lender
and licensed contractor someone who went
from zero to millionaire in real estate

over 20 million dollars of real estate
by 29 i've put together an amazing
program for you on building your wealth
with real estate it's linked down below
it's the zero to millionaire real estate
program a lot of people bundle this up
with the programs on stocks or real
estate agent programs or the property
management programs but zero to
millionaire is the place to start you

investing in real estate during this
next downturn
this is the program for you it's not a
flippers course it's a program on
building your long-term wealth and let
me tell you the cracks are here folks
the cracks are here and this is why this
is the most opportune time to get
educated in real estate take a look at
this report from lennar this report from
lennar is out from june 21st 2022
it's a very recent look into the housing
market and what's happening
take a listen to what lennar the second
largest home builder in the united
states is telling you quote so far in
june new orders traffic sales incentives
and cancellations have worsened in when
in many of our markets do the rapid
spike in mortgage rates and headwinds
from negative economic headlines
and the pain falls under three
categories category one minimal impacts
category 2 modest impacts and category 3
significant impacts
take a look at category 1
florida jersey maryland charlotte
indianapolis chicago dallas houston san
antonio phoenix san diego orange county
and the inland empire all of these
markets have benefited from extremely
low inventory and many of them are
benefiting from a strong local economy
employment growth and then migration and
while these markets continue to be
strong here's your crack
our sales pace and purchasing power has
started to flatten or has flattened in
each of these markets so even though
these are hot markets with low inventory
purchasing power has flattened or is
flattening
these are the good markets
category 2 markets this is where things
start getting worse atlanta
colorado charleston myrtle beach
nashville philadelphia virginia the bay
area reno and salt lake city in each of
these markets traffic is slow and we've
seen an uptick in cancellation rates and
they're now having to offer more
aggressive financing now one of the most
important things to know about a home
builder is that home builders don't like
lowering prices so when they lower
prices you know things are bad they
would rather give you what are called
builder incentives such as buying down
your mortgage with incentive aggressive
financing programs or by giving you more
incentives to spend money
on
improvements for your property
and so when they're talking about
targeted price reductions selectively
reducing our sales prices to solve for a
mortgage payment that works for the
buyers and now they're trying to sell
you on a payment
you know we have issues
category free market
more significant market softening and
correction
including areas like raleigh minnesota
austin texas
los angeles central valley sacramento
and seattle
raleigh was an extremely strong market
but softened significantly at the
beginning of june these cracks are just
now starting people keep talking about
how great the housing market is
you know how great it's been so far even
this year oh it's holding up great the
cracks are just now beginning
take a look at this
as a result we have room for needed
future pricing adjustments because
prices have gone up but look at the
minnesota market it's been very
challenging buyers have always been
conservative in this market and rates
have increased but there's now been a
strong pushback against the current
pricing
this is a problem
and they now see strong price reductions
austin texas higher rates in june and
headlines on the stock market declines
have distressed the national economy
sidelining many buyers who are waiting
for a reset in home values and while
inventory is limited right the biggest
argument that everybody keeps saying oh
real estate can't go down because
inventory is limited oh yeah well what's
happening in austin cancellation rates
have increased and we've reduced home
prices in many communities on a home by
home basis and have offered extremely
competitive mortgage programs these
pricing adjustments are starting to
generate increased sales activity but
again they're having to drop prices
take a look at this los angeles central
valley and sacramento extremely credit
challenged buyers with cancellation
rates
increasing and
what do we have in the q a
well one of the executives at lennar
telling you at the end of the day we're
probably going to push more people from
home ownership towards renting that
means multi-family traditional
multifamily as well as single-family
homes for rent
and again
exactly why you want to become an expert
real estate investor because the
opportunities for rents going up and
prices going down are an opportunity to
make money and to build your wealth your
long-term wealth
but wait a minute is this just happening
in the united states
no
of course not take a look at the index
for frothy markets throughout the world
the united states ranks seventh with a
price to rent ratio of 139
and a price to income ratio of 135.
new zealand tops the list followed by
the czech republic australia canada
portugal
folks this is a global issue and why
this is happening should be obvious more
than 60 central banks around the world
have raised rates this year
and they're not on pace to slow down
their rate hikes
anytime soon even jerome powell the
chairperson of the federal reserve said
today that home prices are quote
unsustainably high in front of congress
and sees no chance that home price
appreciation doesn't slow if not
potentially lead to a fall in home
prices he went as far as saying this to
first-time home buyers just last week i
would say if you're if you're a home
buyer somebody or a young person looking
to buy a home
you need a bit of a reset we we need to
get back to a place where where supply
and demand are are back
together and where inflation is down low
again and mortgages or mortgage rates
are low again so this this will be a
process whereby
we ideally we
we do our work in a way that where the
housing market settles in a new place
and housing availability and credit
availability are at appropriate levels
redfin just reported that at the end of
the year 61.6 percent of people could
afford a home on a 2500 per month budget
today only 45.6 percent of homes are
affordable with this budget throughout
the entire united states and in phoenix
only 21.5 percent of homes are
affordable
of course the same argument that is made
that oh housing can't fall it won't fall
it'll continue to rise
is one that increasingly seems unlikely
those who suggest that well but kevin
there are more households or more people
in buying age or in the buying age today
than there were in the mid-2000s
conveniently forget that homes are now
60 more expensive than the mid-2000s and
in many cases double to triple what we
had seen previously but also that home
prices have substantially outpaced
increases in incomes with home prices on
average 20 percent more
than incomes have risen
supply chains have also created another
potential disaster for home builders
take the dallas texas market for example
there are now twice as many homes in
construction in the dallas market than
at any point in the past this is
partially due to massive supply chain
led delays that have stalled the
building process as home builders waited
for garage doors or even appliances like
refrigerators and dishwashers or windows
or doors you name it
that temporarily depressed housing
inventory towards the end of 2021 and
beginning of 2022 but as that inventory
comes online towards the end of 2022
at the same time as interest rates are
now four percentage points higher than
where they were in the past that is the
recent past just december
we could expect a disaster of a flood of
inventory
just at the wrong time when rates are
high
so what's likely to happen well first
multiple offers go away redfin has
already reported that the share of
multiple offers per home is going down
second we start seeing price drops on
active listings nationwide we've seen a
substantial impact in the number of
homes with price drops you can take a
look at this yourself but just looking
at the redfin data center look at the
redfin data center of percent of active
listings with price drops in the entire
united states average together on a
rolling four-week average this means
it's even worse probably now and this
data right here as of about 10 days ago
it updates about every two weeks but
take a look at this
this black line here is 2022
and we are seeing substantial price
drops more than we have ever before in
the last four years
this is how it begins folks
price drops what happens after price
drops more stagnant listings this is a
sudden and stark transition and after
these price drops come of course
inventory stagnating and building up
that is
less home selling every single month
despite price drops more homes sitting
on the market
then we'll actually eventually start to
see home prices fall
and see the thing about real estate is
real estate moves very slowly homes are
appraised based on previous month's
sales so it could take three to six
months sometimes even longer to actually
see home prices be affected that's
because people buying in march look at
what people paid for their homes in
january and think maybe they're getting
a good deal in march because they're
paying the same price and prices haven't
gone up but oh wait a minute the person
buying in january had a two and a half
percent mortgage the person buying in
march had a four and a half percent
mortgage the person buying in june had a
six and a half percent mortgage
prices will come down
even agents can feel it happening
immediately with more buyer anxiety
cancellations and lower offers and we're
seeing it in the data as well
once prices start to drop there's then
the fear that mainstream media will over
dramatize the drop and potentially lead
to more selling or panic selling now
some say but who would move because if
you sell you're just gonna have to rebuy
again at a higher interest rate it's the
most common question i get asked
but folks who ask this question don't
understand how real estate works
there are plenty of people who sell
homes every single day and don't buy
another home in fact as a real estate
agent maybe one in ten of my home sales
was somebody who was selling to buy
another home that's because some people
retire they move into an existing
property that they own an existing
rental property they move in with family
or maybe they're a second home seller
raising money to buy other assets or sit
in cash or they're investors who
straight up don't have to rebuy because
they're a mom and pop landlord or
they're a hedge fund these are companies
that or people who do not have to rebuy
when they sell some people also just
decide i'm going to sell on purpose and
go rent and they contribute to rent
prices going up
so what should you do well first get
educated as prices fall you need to
educate yourself prepare for the
opportunity of a lifetime to buy real
estate and depressed values learn how to
identify deals and work with people real
estate is a people business and if
you're not aware of the tricks of real
estate you can learn everything linked
down below with the 50 off coupon code
expiring in a few days before prices
rise again and you can join me in
private live streams where we talk not
only about the market but about what i'm
doing in real estate and we analyze
deals together
second should you short home builders or
the real estate sector
possibly
according to bloomberg the msci world
index
the real estate
sector of the s p 500 or the msci world
real estate index still sits above its
10-year average
that means real estate prices in the
stock market
still actually have a substantial amount
of froth left in them even though many
home builder stocks for example have
already fallen 25 to 40 percent
there is more room to fall
third you should raise money and pay off
your debt now is the time to work harder
and smarter to get out of debt don't buy
or lease a new car don't finance
anything and start paying down debt to
prepare to buy real estate
fourth stay away from syndications they
are the most expensive form of buying
real estate often with promoters who
charge insane fees like two percent
management fees every single year and 35
waterfalls it's insane
fifth
share this video tell your friends and
families about what's happening
you're owed the truth and a falling
housing market could mean more
joblessness and the wealth effect of
falling home values crimping our economy
into a recession so be prepared and get
ready now is the time to be a survivor
