If you’ve been thinking about buying a house in 2024, you already may be too late. With mortgage rates dropping, listings increasing, and spring buying season only a short couple of months away, NOW is the time to act before bidding wars start up again. With so much pent-up buyer demand, agents and lenders are already seeing a spike in activity, and we haven’t even gotten to spring. So, if you want to know how to buy a house in 2024, even with fierce competition, we’re here to help. Avery Carl, short-term rental expert and agent, and Caeli Ridge, President at Ridge Lending Group, join us to talk about what they’re seeing in the market NOW, what their housing market predictions are as buying season heats back up, and whether or not now is even the time to buy. Both Avery and Caeli work heavily with investors, so they know what does and doesn’t work when buying a rental property, NOT just a primary residence. We’ll touch on the hottest markets that could see the most competition, why rookie investors need to snap out of analysis paralysis to win in 2024, and why this buying season could become red-hot in just a few months. Plus, David and Rob will answer a listener’s question about how to win in a competitive market without having the highest bid. In This Episode We Cover: “Buying season” and why spring 2024 could bring back the hot housing market  Most active real estate markets that are seeing inventory fly off the MLS Why mortgage rates are NOT as important as you think they are The “great stalemate” and what could cause homeowners to finally list their houses Whether to buy or wait and the risk of holding out for lower mortgage rates How to beat other buyers when bidding for investment properties And So Much More!

How do you make six figures in passive income with no college degree, very little money, and zero experience in real estate? Do what Hunter Lawler did and take it step-by-step; within a few years, you, too, could be making over $100,000 in cash flow with just ten properties! But the only way you’ll get there is by thinking outside the box, buying properties most don’t even know about, and taking risks when talking to sellers. Hunter learned very early on that a college degree doesn’t guarantee a big paycheck. He was making a full-time income from his crawfish-selling side hustle when he decided to drop out. After seeing entrepreneurial success, Hunter pivoted and started investing in the sexiest, highest-priced properties ever…mobile homes. These dirt-cheap rentals gave him the sweat equity he needed to build a bigger portfolio. From mobile homes to single-family houses, self-storage facilities, and killer seller finance deals, this episode is a masterclass on how to grow a six-figure income stream without a college degree or hundreds of thousands in the bank! In This Episode We Cover How to build a six-figure income stream by buying cheap, low-risk rental properties Buying discounted houses at “sheriff sales” and what to know BEFORE you bid Mobile home investing and why it may be the easiest way to get into real estate  Commercial lines of credit, home equity, and how to turn your rentals into more mortgages  Self-storage investing and the hands-off system Hunter uses to create serious cash flow Seller financing and the simple way to convince a seller to take a fair price for their property  And So Much More!

Most 2023 housing market predictions sound like this, “The sky is falling! Sell everything! Houses will be worth $1 next year! This is just like 2008!” Look at the track record of those who shill predictions like this. These are the same forecasters who have been predicting a crash will happen at some point over the last ten years. Now, with a whiff of fear in the air, mainstream real estate journalists will do anything they can to convince you we’re having a repeat of 2008. However, this is far from the truth. But how could we forecast the 2023 housing market without data? And where there’s data, there’s Dave Meyer, VP of Data and Analytics at BiggerPockets and host of the On the Market podcast. Dave and his team have recently released “The 2023 State of Real Estate Investing Report,” which gives all the housing market data you need to invest successfully in 2023. In it, Dave shares how the 2022 housing market flipped once the Fed raised rates, how supply and demand have been affected, and what we can expect for 2023. Dave will also go over the three investing strategies he feels are more appropriate for investing in 2023, including a completely passive way to invest, a cash flow and appreciation combo, and how buyers can take advantage of this market to get deals at a steep discount. While we can’t predict the future, we can give you our best insight into what you can do to build wealth in 2023. So turn off the mainstream fear forecasting and tune into real news designed to make you richer! In This Episode We Cover: Why 2023 is not a “normal” housing market and the details leading up to today’s state The “levers” that affect home prices and why 2023 is NOT the same as 2008 Seller’s vs. buyer’s markets and where prices are most expected to dip Homebuyer demand and how unaffordability has caused most buyers to sit on their hands Mortgage rate increases and how the Fed is using high rates to combat inflation The three strategies that work in today’s housing market and how to invest while others sit on the sidelines 2023 housing market predictions and when we could potentially see home prices bottom And So Much More!
