Revisiting my original Halloween show!

I have what I think is going to be a treat for your today! See what I did there? Halloween...treat? Ok, sorry. I was trying to come up with something special to do on this Halloween. I spent some time going through my old shows and came across a Halloween show I did very early on. Maybe only I will notice the difference, but I could not help thinking about how far the show has come over the years! In any event, I share some pretty good scary stories from real estate and my guess is that unless you have been listening to the show for more than 8 years, you have never heard this one before!

I hope you enjoy!

Real Estate Realities With The RebelBroker - California Deficits And Taxes 2024

California Deficits And Taxes 2024

Real Estate Realities With The RebelBroker

play

03/08/24 • 27 min

Things are looking rough for California residents in 2024. A nearly $100 billion dollar surplus has been turned into $73 billion (and growing) deficit.

Sadly, the solution from Sacramento seems to be doubling down on the policies that are causing many of these issues. New changes to the law have been proposed that will be voted on later this year designed to make it easier for California politicians to raise taxes.

In addition, this approach seems poised to try and challenge the one thing that has at least kept property taxes at bay - proposition 13.

Instead of making the needed budget cuts to meet needs, the typical tendency to take more in tax revenue ends up encouraging more residents to leave. Of course, the biggest earners - and therefore the biggest contributors to tax revenues - see the economic landscape they face in California and decide to leave the state all together.

Today, we will chat about all that and get a feeling for what everyone will be facing in 2024 in California.

Some interesting things are going on with the Reno real estate market.

Today we are going to look at some numbers and get into details about why it looks like the southern Reno real estate area could be a great place to invest. Even better, Reno is only about a 5 hour drive from Silicon Valley, so for all you investors in that part of California, this could be a great place to start investing and still act as the property manager for your property.

Real Estate Realities With The RebelBroker - Sub Prime lending is back... as Non Prime loans

Sub Prime lending is back... as Non Prime loans

That's right, Non Prime loans might be a new name, but it is the same old problem

Both private and government backed lenders have been at it for a while. We have explored all the various ways bad lending has been creeping back into the financial world. Sadly, it has been this way for several years now. But now, we have reached a more critical mass where the practice appears to be getting a more common usage. This is not good. We are simply priming the lending pump for another downturn and the market is ripe for it. Sub prime loans or non prime loans end with the same thing, a economic meltdown that is likely to dwarf what we saw in 2007.

The places with the biggest increases in foreclosures will blow your mind!

Are we seeing a resurgence of foreclosures? The data shows that in about 44% of metro areas, we are. We have talked a lot about pivot points in markets and where to find them. Well, I would absolutely call an increase in foreclosures a pivot point! In fact, right here on this show we speculated years ago that the bad lending practices we began to embrace about 6 years ago would come back to bite us in exactly this way. It sounds like we might have just been pretty close to right. While it is interesting that we are seeing this increase, it is some of the specific areas we are seeing it that is most revealing. I am willing to be that some of the areas that are at the top of this list will blow you away! So tune in for our discussion of the recent increase in foreclosures. Today Links:

Is pot the next big real estate investment?

Whether you call it pot, marijuana, mary jane, ganja or reefer - it might just be time to include it in your list of possible real estate investments. At least, that is what a newly filed request to create an REIT in New York hopes to do.

So does pot give a great path for supplying a demand in the world of real estate? Maybe, so we will discuss it and talk about what might be a way to get in on the action - if it's for you.

We will also talk about some new FHA rules relating to condos that might just make things easier to get loans on such properties.

Finally, consumer confidence has taken a turn for the worse and when taken with all the other things we have talked about in the last few weeks, it is worth considering what it might mean if the trend continues.
