Facebook Takes A Tumble. I Love Real Estate Jul 27, 2018

Show notes

I was reminded today why I invest in real estate. Analysts downgraded their estimate for Facebook's earnings, and the stock took a 24% hit overnight. As a small investor in the stock market you have no control. But as a real estate investor, one who focuses on value-added opportunities, I feel a tremendous level of control. The fundamentals of profitability seem to be missing when it comes to valuation of many companies listed on the NYSE. Real estate isn't perfect, but I have much more control.

Chinese Buyers Have Vanished Jul 26, 2018

Show notes

In June, Chinese investors sold more US real estate than they purchased for the first time in 10 years. This reversal marks a huge shift in a growing trend of Chinese money buying marquis assets across the country over the past 5 years.

Show notes

Today's episode was recorded in front of a live studio audience at Podcast Movement 2018 conference in Philadelphia.

Signals of the Next Recession Jul 24, 2018

Show notes

Recessions occur when producers expand in anticipation of continued growth in demand. They over estimate the true demand and by the time they realize their mistake, it's too late and they're sitting on excess inventory. How many places in the economy do you see this happening?

New York City Walking Tour Jul 23, 2018

Today I'm taking you on a walking tour of several landmark properties in Manhattan and sharing some of the history behind those buildings. My mother was an architect on two of those projects and I give you a behind the scenes look (via audio) at what those buildings entailed.

Short Term Rentals Are Under Assault Again Jul 22, 2018

Show notes

Yes, this time the Province of British Columbia is giving condominium corporations the power to ban short term rentals in their bilaws and fine owners or residents up to $1,000 per day. The City of Los Angeles just passed a new motion that limits owners from renting their property for more than 120 days a year, and New York City increased their budget for enforcement and will hire 50 more employees to crack down on illegal short term rentals.

Special Guest George Ross Jul 21, 2018

Show notes

Earlier this week I spoke with George Ross about the current news cycle which is very focused on the outcome of the Helsinki Summit between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. George has a very clear way of looking at a situation and separating what actually happened from interpretation.

Do You Have Rights To Water On Your Property? Jul 20, 2018

Show notes

This is one of the most complex areas of property ownership, and one where common sense doesn't apply. There are so many special cases that the same water will change ownership depending on what happens to it along its journey from the sky into the ground.

Show notes

In the wake of last year's Hurricanes and tropical storms, very little has changed in terms of insurance coverage nationwide. In today's episode we discuss different types of insurance coverage and the merits of each one.
