Underwriting A Matter of Perspective
On today's show, we're talking about a situation that confuses a lot of investors. How can the same property have two different underwriting models, and how can both of them be correct?The answer comes down to perspective.A lender is underwriting the property for one purpose. An investor is underwriting the property for a different purpose. Those two objectives overlap, but they are not id
Is The Software Business Model Dead?

Today's episode is another AMA, or Ask Me Anything.Today's question comes from Charles, who asks:"What is your opinion of office-to-residential conversions?

When Your Condo Doesn't Qualify
Today we’re talking about a change in the condominium market that has received surprisingly little attention.The question is not whether your condo is worth $300,000 or $500,000.The question is whether a buyer can get a mortgage on it.We saw this problem extensively in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis.

What Does The Fed Mean?
The progression from Alan Greenspan to Kevin Warsh is not simply a change in personality.

Dear Diary
It’s rare that I get wrapped up in the news cycle. I’m not a news junkie. But this week, something crossed my desk that I simply could not ignore.

Is There A Business Case For Solar?
China is manufacturing solar panels at a scale that has transformed the economics of the global market. High-efficiency panels leaving China are currently priced at roughly eleven cents per watt.

Don't Tell Me. Show Me.
Most people are still using artificial intelligence as though it were a slightly more sophisticated search engine. They type a question into a chat window, receive an answer, and then go back to performing their work manually. That approach can save a few minutes. But it misses the larger opportunity.Both OpenAI and Anthropic have recently introduced capabilities that allow you to teach the system
Are Second Homes an Investment?
There are between 5.7 and 6.5 million second homes in the United States. That represents a meaningful portion of the housing stock, about 5% if you consider that there are about 133 million households in the US.

Global Shipping Is At Risk
The Strait of Hormuz is capturing headlines again as conflict between the United States and Iran escalates. Some commercial operators are reportedly refusing passage even with military escorts because crews and shipowners do not believe the risk can be managed.

What The New CPI Data Tells Us
Yesterday’s inflation report delivered a surprise. Headline prices fell sharply, but the important story was beneath the headline. This was not a gasoline story. Core inflation was unchanged for the month, and several categories that have kept inflation stubbornly high moved lower. For investors, that distinction matters because it changes the conversation around interest rates today.The new repor

Using Leading Indicators not Reports
Today we are asking a practical question. Can you get a leading indicator of what is happening in real estate before monthly or quarterly reports from the major brokerages?

But not all patterns are predict
BOM - This is Strategy by Seth Godin
Our book of the month is "This is Strategy" by Seth Godin. When this book was published, I knew I wanted to read it. I’ve been following Seth for years.

Inflation Can Hurt Investors Too
A recent Wall Street Journal article laid out the rising cost of home ownership in a very clear way. From 2019 to 2025, the annual cost of owning a home rose from about $20,600 to about $28,600. That is a 39 percent increase, compared with a 26 percent increase in the consumer price index. The biggest increases were not just mortgage payments. Insurance rose 72 percent.

Market Inefficiency Creates Opportunity
Markets are supposed to be mechanisms for price discovery. That’s the theory. Markets are also supposed to be efficient.

Valuing Land With Production
I was recently speaking with an investor who was looking at the purchase of an agricultural property. During the discussion, a question came up that applies not only to farms, but to many types of real estate.What is the property actually worth?At first, that sounds like a simple question. But the answer depends on what exactly you're valuing.Let's use the example of a coffee farm with 1,0
Three Central Banks Hold And Two Increase
The Fed held today. Rates stay at 3.5%-3.75%. But here's the thing — the hold was not the news. The news was in the dot plot. The median projection for where rates will end 2026. Core PCE inflation was revised up to 3.3%. And unemployment? Revised up to 4.3%. Rising inflation and rising unemployment in the same forecast.
