540. How to be a Smarter Real Estate Investor in Today's Market

Is real estate still the best wealth-building tool in today’s market? With rising interest rates, decelerating home prices, and affordability challenges, it's a fair question. Brian Gubernick breaks down the current real estate landscape and outlines the three major shifts every investor should understand in 2025.

Here’s what to focus on: - Cash Flow is King (Again): Why investors must prioritize cash flow and deeply understand rent-to-price ratios. - Creative Financing: How strategies like seller financing, subject-to deals, and lease options are opening up new paths for acquisition. - Short-Term Rental Saturation: Why it may be time to pivot away from short-term rentals and explore long-term or midterm options.

Whether you're just getting started or scaling your portfolio, this episode is packed with tactical insight to help you make smart moves in a challenging market.
