We also touch on unique investment strategies like joint ventures and delve into the potential impacts of natural disasters on your experiences.

In this episode, we explore why companies and investors are making a beeline for regions like Dallas, Phoenix, and how you, too, can benefit from a region's unique mix of politics and favorable regulations.
