The Great Real Estate Crash Reset | DO THIS NOW
FULL TRANSCRIPT
oh boy there are going to be some juicy
opportunities coming up in real estate
in this video as I head to the airport
to go check out more real estate we want
to break down where those opportunities
uh might be first and foremost a lot of
folks are looking at Price action and
are wondering hey if December was the
bottom where is there an opportunity
today especially when inventory is still
as low as it is in fact months Supply is
maybe at similar levels to the last two
years but actual standing inventory is
somewhere around 20 to 30 percent less
than where we were in the last two years
which the reason for that is less people
are buying how could there potentially
be an opportunity and there are a few
different opportunities there's the
commercial side where you've got
potentially opportunities in medical
building conversions that's a big deal
right now probably a much bigger
opportunity than you've got in just
getting into the good old usual pandemic
Airbnb play
the other opportunity in my opinion is
actually renaults your classic not fix
and flip style properties now the reason
they said not Fix and Flip is because in
a high interest rate environment you
take on a lot of risk flipping real
estate in fact I generally never
encourage flipping because you're too
subject to Market risk but there's
something very unique about the profile
of people who are actually buying homes
today most of the people were on
autopilot by the way full self-driving
here supposedly but we got a beautiful
iPhone mount as well so we can pay good
attention most of the people buying
today
seem to be folks who not only have the
ability to repay given that our non-qm
our non-qualified mortgage levels are
less than five percent which basically
means 95 of people have not only the
ability to repay which I guess to some
regard you need to have the ability to
repay for a non-2m loan as well but the
point is 95 plus percent of loans are
actually your conventional normal debt
to income ratios which means people
could actually afford the homes they're
buying right now which is mind-blowing
because homes seem very unaffordable
right
but because people are so stretched in
terms of okay we can afford it but now
that's it like we can't afford any more
in that regard we don't have a bunch of
extra cash to do Renovations what kind
of properties are creating the best
opportunities to buy
it's fixers The Wall Street Journal just
did a fantastic profile on home buyers
that were actually seeing buying homes
today and most of them are people who
are either Tech couples or in some sort
of software business uh they're
entrepreneurs or their employees
software companies they're making great
W-2 incomes and what they're doing is
they're betting they're making a bet
they're saying look we think rates are
going to go down let's buy the home we
want now and then we'll hoddle it that
limits a real price Discovery because
people are already betting that rates
are going to come down which obviously
the longer rates stay higher the worse
it is for Real Estate but not only are
people making that bet which minimizes
some of that potential pain that you
would otherwise experience in real
estate fewer people are selling but
here's what's happening the people who
are buying wanting to buy based on that
Wall Street Journal profile and what
we're seeing in the markets and what
we're talking to Realtors about so
getting anecdotal evidence on is people
are wanting to buy move in ready
properties that's because the type of
person who's buying these properties and
can qualify at these prices is not
interested in doing renovation work to
try to make an extra Buck they'd rather
work more at the job they're doing than
you know try to make a buck doing paint
carpet and electrical stuff and dealing
with contractors and all the headaches
that they don't want to deal with
so what this actually does is you're in
this weird real estate environment where
many markets had a big correction last
year somewhere up to 20 Boise Austin
Phoenix Florida not so much and you're
still seeing some residual of that some
of these markets still down 10 uh from
their Peak in May of 2022 that's already
giving them some credit for appreciation
this year anyway what you're finding is
that even in these markets you're
putting a floor under real estate prices
because of the lack of willingness to
sell homes
and on the flip side because of buyers
willingness to bet that the real estate
pain will be transitory
so this then sets us up for two
potential Avenues to take for actually
buying Real Estate Avenue number one is
you just sit around and wait forever the
risk of waiting forever is as rates
normalize and as even inventory
normalizes you end up with a balanced
Market that either stays flat or slowly
Trends up again that is a risk right
you're upside risk uh of course the hope
is that you're going to have some kind
of big 20 30 real estate correction and
while we already had that in certain
markets like Boise Austin and Phoenix
that's probably behind us
so the other potential Avenue is all
right well look if you're not going to
have a big crash again beyond the
pricing correction that you've already
had where is the leftover opportunity
well I mentioned one is medical
opportunity potentially converting
Office Space or commercial space to
Medical but the second opportunity is
buying fixer-uppers because you have
less people flipping homes right now you
have a lower appetite for people to
actually get into real estate why would
you have a lower appetite for people to
get into real estate well because
a people don't want to do Renovations B
rates are high and when you have a less
interest in doing renovations and rates
are high and affordability is really
really stretched the only people buying
are the people who are like I don't want
to do any work then what you do is you
kind of sliver out a section of the
market where people aren't playing ball
and I don't expect people to play a lot
of ball this winter and that's why I
think come this October probably all the
way out to about February we're going to
be in a unique buying window where we're
going to have a Confluence factors fancy
work we're going to have this collection
of factors that say okay this could be
really good now let me break down what
those are
inflation by I mean think about it by
November we should be pretty comfortable
that we're at Peak interest rates
inflation is over and we're trending
down we should be very comfortable with
that in fact we should also have some
gauge as to how bad is the unemployment
issue going to get the things we're
gonna get to four four and a half
percent does that mean we're going to
end up getting to five and a half
percent and they'll end up having
overcorrected we should have a lot of
that Intel by October November December
well in October November December the
people who generally sell are not
discretionary sellers they're people who
have to sell trust sales hoarder homes
uh you know basically properties that
need to sell fixer-uppers but you're
still going to have high rates which
means low investor low to no investor
competition investors already falling
off a cliff nobody wants to flip right
this this is a great opportunity
potentially uh and you should be on a
trajectory to rate declines which should
be supportive to not only you buying a
good deal this winter but then
potentially having Tailwinds after the
fact again predicated on unemployment
not going to the Moon so obviously if
unemployment skyrockets and we have a
really big recession well then we've got
bigger problems right and we have actual
problems that we really have to get to
the bottom of uh and that could take
years
personally I don't believe that a
recession is imminent I think that a
recession is likely but I think that the
inverted yield curve could be telling us
that a recession is still two years away
I know that's crazy to think about but
it could be two three four five years
away we don't know there's this massive
lag and unknown consistency of that
inverted yield curve and one of the
reasons why the inverted yield curve
always seems to be right is because
people stretch out how soon that
recession needs to happen sometimes you
get an inverted yield curve you get a
recession within 12 months sometimes you
get an inverted yield curve and you
don't get a recession for like 56 months
which if you think about it that's like
four point what seven years you know
that would be like a recession in 2027
right
that could happen
so when we put together the data not
necessarily that we have now we don't
want to play Crystal Ball
but when we get to October I think we're
going to be looking at a market where
we're like okay
the people who are buying who are
supporting home values don't want to do
Renovations that's an opportunity in a
single family and multi-family space
investors aren't flipping right now
because it's a risky time to flip you'll
still have high rates so a lot of people
are gonna be like oh brother we're off
with my treasury yields than buying real
estate which I think is a
probably not the best idea mostly
because with real estate you know the
benefits of uh depreciation for your tax
benefits look at the medical properties
trust I mean they they take like a 300
million dollar loss uh for well I think
this morning we analyzed it in the
course member livestream it's like a 340
million dollar loss for depreciation uh
depreciation when you add that back in
that's what they're basically paying out
in dividends I mean it's remarkable
anyway ignoring the medical properties
trust for moment I do think there's some
opportunities there ignoring that for a
moment uh look it's the the Tesla lot
this by the way right here is the law
there's nothing in front of me dude
everything's fine
uh this by the way here I don't know if
you can see it there's a lot right here
and they drop off the Teslas here and
sometimes this lot is full and they grab
them like two or three at a time drive
them across the street to the delivery
Center anyway I love seeing it because
it keeps like gets filled up and then
it's sold fills up sold it's kind of
cool but anyway uh you have this
potential joining factors here that says
man you know depreciation leveraged
appreciation uh uh you know probably
already experienced flattened rents so
then you'll get back to rental
appreciation when you add all of these
factors together real estate is
potentially setting up for glorious
opportunity I don't think it's going to
be a you know 2008 style opportunity at
all and that's okay because think about
it in 2008 you don't have liquidity so
in 2008 you might be like yeah I want to
buy homes in 2008 but look I became a
broker in 2008 uh well in in that 2008
recession arrows after 2008 I became an
agent broker but anyway what I realized
was people didn't have money so uh when
people didn't have money what do you
stuck with well you're looking going man
these real estate prices are so low but
you can't buy anyway you can't buy
because nobody's got the money to buy
now we're actually in this really neat
place where a there is money to buy and
B you potentially combine that also with
an opportunity to buy which I'm really
excited about so uh you know for me I'm
jumping up and down thinking this winter
season could be a big opportunity we'll
obviously see uh how things evolve here
but uh I gotta go catch a plane now
which is pretty exciting so let me know
what you think in the comments down
below see a lot of uh negativity out
there on the real estate market and I'm
personally not seeing it uh at least not
that bad I see it as an opportunity
rather than super bad so we'll see but
again I want to hear what your comments
are let me know what you think get my
little iPad Mini over here and go read
while I'm on the plane and study some
more see you soon bye
