Real estate, while a solid investment, demands effort and lacks liquidity compared to stocks and bonds. Long-term market trends should guide decisions.

The decision on when to pick an Adviser is a very personal one. I take guidance from ‘Monica Mary Strigle‘ to meet my growth goals and avoid mistakes, she's well-qualified and her page can be easily found on the net.

Real estate isn’t as liquid as cash or cash-equivalents, or even stocks and bonds. I rather the latter. Just as you’re experiencing, real estate can be a lot of work.

Strengthen other assets, consider reputable money market funds or mutual funds for emergency savings. Assess mortgage rates and allocate excess funds strategically.

Please avoid "large ponzi schemes" dubbed as treasury bills and reassess the perceived safety of bonds. Engage a trustworthy financial planner for prudent decision-making.

🤣 nailed it

That's hilarious

It's boomer nature

Wicked man. Thank you for the intel

I mentioned that and got a lot of insulting replies 😂

Those houses cost 150000 to build. Ax for one should be 230000 to 250000. Wake up people

Of course "inflation" in general is a bunch of BS. It's all fueled by greed at the end of the day!

Yes indeed.

Interesting how builders are "greedy", but when it comes time to sell your property, you're not guilt of it as well. These builders get what people are WILLING TO PAY.

Yes, it looks like a future pit for a stupid buyer....

it’s a personal decision, but according to Forbes, housing activities will remain stagnant for the most part of the year, so maybe hold off a little.

well you could put a downpayment on a home and as well diversify as much as you can into Ai, energy and big pharm. stocks like Pfizer and JnJ, ASML, MLM and S&P 500 ETFs. I’d suggest you go with a managed portfolio, but even those don’t perform so well, so it’s best you reach out to a proper fiduciary to guide you, that’s what works for my spouse and I making a whooping $738k in Q4 last year

I’m an art collector, this is not very new to me but has a nuance to it. Can you assist me?

There are many advisors to choose from. But I work with 'Leah Foster Alderman' and we've been working together for years and she's fantastic. You could check her if she meets your requirements. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with

Thanks for the recommendation, I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials, I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get.

I'll pass 😆

All fueled by greed, that's America nowadays. Land and permit are easy to come across in Texas so this doesn't usually tend to work well in these neck of the woods as you can see.

@@realestatemindsetI loved your podcast with Joe from Heresy Financial! But I couldn't believe how beholden he was to the idea of teal estate being shielded from the inevitable housing downturn. Great content, Travis ...keep pushing "boots on the ground"truth

The cost to build a new home makes it pointless to build smaller single family homes.

A rental agency bought 85% of the houses in our subdivision as it was being built. There was us and 4 other families on our street, then one day, our entire street had For Rent signs by the same company in every yard.

Only one subdivision. So far anyways. Can't believe how dead it was.

Yes. The modern day new construction indicator of "ghetto" is no trees. If they're too lazy or careless to keep trees in place, imagine how poorly the house is built. Absolutely bonkers actually.

Texas divisions are huge Soviet style. Insanely large division with small lots and with no trees or sidewalks. New homes in Texas are so bad.

Bingo

Building in flood zones seems to be R.D. Horton's signature move across the country. Here in Fort Wayne, Indiana, one the DRH communities is in a 99% flood zone, and yet people have bought and keep buying, I don't get it!

lol you guys are clueless. They’re grade that property & build retention ponds for the water. All of the new construction homes have great drainage. I’ve been buying foreclosures in the greater Houston area & all of them drain property & we’ve had 4 massive floods in the past 3-4 months since I’ve bought them.

Waking up every 14th of each month to $210,000 it’s a blessing to I and my family… Big gratitude to Andrew Stella 🙌

Hello , I am very interested. As you know, there are tons of investments out there and without solid knowledge, I can't decide what is best. Can you explain further how you invest and earn?

Same, I operate a wide- range of Investments with help from My Financial Adviser. My advice is to get a professional who will help you, plan and enhance your management skills. For the record, working with Andrew Louis Stella, has been an amazing experience.

Hello how do you make such monthly?? I'm a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down 🤦‍♀️of myself because of low finance but I still believe in God

I'm favoured, $90K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America,, all thanks to Ms Louis Stella 😊🎉

We plan on it. We are just trying to figure out how to afford it.

Thank you so much Jim. Glad someone really sees. They hate me Jim, for showing them the truth.

I'm about to close on a property in the Montrose a bit north of the Medical Center. We did the subdivision analysis to get confident in our purchase and also got favorable loan terms. (It was the right time to buy for us due to the high rent costs.) Inventory around us still is pretty low and you can't find much with 2000 ft or more in a 3 bedroom, 2 bath plus configuration for under 700K. I'm seeing some price cuts but I don't foresee a huge cut in the area due to the proximity to the Medical Center and downtown and pretty low inventory. If you're looking for a place with a decent yard, remember that the underlying land value is about 4 million an acre, which will continue to support higher per foot pricing than the suburbs. Newer construction also tends to be upper end. Midtown has new and newer homes that are attractive but you want to look at the crime map before buying. The other thing to consider when you do buy here is the stucco monster. You must get a stucco inspection, even on a newer home. Lack of drainage - a miss by some builders - can mean 10s of thousands in stucco repair. Don't know why we have so much stucco here, but it's just the reality. If you are able to spend around 800K you might be able to get a good older brick home with a yard in the Montrose on the East side of Montrose Blvd. If you value walkability and proximity to TMC and lots of dining and park access and arts, I'd highly recommend looking at properties in and around 77006. I just don't think prices will crash here even when they soften further. The commercial land along Westheimer is super expensive and we are about to have a bunch of vertical development once interest rates cool. Home prices have already cooled in 77006 whereas West University is holding strong. So I think this area is already a better deal than some neighboring areas with a fairly stable market and some opportunity for growth. It would take a big interest rate cut for people to start listing more homes. Hope you find a great home when you're ready!

I’m a realtor in the Houston area, if you would like me to send you some options of homes and prices let me know with your email!

😅 laughing but I am in the same situation 😢

Absolutely BONKERS

@@realestatemindsetI need a cool catchphrase like this. ❤😄

Thank you sir!

Don't underestimate a company that survived the gfc by hook and crook. And they will do it a again.

Which builder is better Dr Horton or Lennar?

Correct

Thank you! I hope you enjoyed

Thanks man. It's interesting that's it's actually the builder who's saying they are ready to go and be sold

Thank you for the intel!

Last week, I locked at 6.5.

@@Polythinker ouch. Better than 7 but still. Monthly payment going to be a biotch

@benrichards9667 I know, but also, I hope interest rates will come down soon, and renting me 2 bedroom coop will help me.

@@Polythinkerbuilder bought down my rate at 5.25…..

Not everyone can afford 17 aces. It's not like people don't want land. Also corporations buy up huge tracks of land, so anything larger than 10 acres is often hard to come by. In my hometown in FL, farms never hit the market as they are snatched up by developers.

Yes! Go to my home page and scroll down to my metro report play list. I specifically went to Wilmington. No hate but as far as the new builds, it made me sick to my stomach. They were everywhere and where all the same white colored cookie cutter home. It felt like a nightmare.

I viewed the episode called "wilmington nc" but they actually were visiting brunswick County home sites. I live in Wilmington but work for a utility company in brunswick Co. I see/work all the new developments.

@@ptlpszt1 How’s the Job market out there? I don’t see much as far as big corps etc… wondering how all these home owners will sustain their lifestyle

@@ouzoshots9865 ​@ouzoshots9865 I earn above average median income. I had to take a pay cut to stay in my area of expertise. To answer you question, I don't know. I ask myself and other people that same question all the time. I could not afford any of these new builds. Not even the 900 sf sheds they are calling houses. The people I do know who are able to afford it here are remote or have old money. Trust fund types here.

@@ouzoshots9865 also everyone I see that can afford to buy are not from here. The people here are stuck renting. I know of only one couple who bought a 340k house from here. I feel for them.

Fair enough thank you sir

Absolutely. I have no idea why people would buy a wood framed home when you have the harshest weather in the country. Hurricanes tornadoes and straight line winds are common

Where did you move?

I was bro. White chest hair popped out my shirt like a spider leg, like trying to escape my shirt for its life. Rookie move. My bad 🤣🤣😅😅

Are you saying refugees are buying houses there 💯?

And unfortunately excess properties will be gobbled up by investors after this cycle. Rentals can be written off as a depreciating asset. The consumer will battle cash offers and property bundles, and these communities will turn to build to rent. These amenities remind me of upscale apartments or 55+ communities.

Probably old run down neighborhoods.... if you got the balls.

It's whatever a person would pay for it to dictate the market..the gotta get it now agenda will give you buyers remorse in future years

Hell of a lot cheapest material they can get away it .and squeeze the subs down hard telling them you make it up in volume.its as fast as you can these days..find a small builder that is out there working on your home not just a guy in chair behind a desk that golfs twice a week

I need to get out to Galveston to do one

Better Weather in Galveston? Tell that to the Hurricane that’s about to put it underwater. Galveston is a dump, tons of homes that are empty and boarded up from Storms of the past

its a new house that is built without any custom stuff installed. it is built and they put it up for sale, taking a chance that it will sell. usually works ok , or it has .

@@raytaylor3077 thank you for the explanation!

In Vegas before the 2007 crash, many people were buying spec homes. Buy in Phase I of the development, and by the time Phase 4 is completed, u had $40K in equity...until it crashed & everyone lost a lot.
