On today’s show we are looking closely at yesterday’s Fed interest rate announcement. The Fed cut the benchmark lending rate by 0.25% as widely predicted and as I predicted only a few days ago on this show. As real estate investors we care deeply about what happens to interest rates. The cost of capital is one of the most significant variables when it comes to owning real estate assets.

This week’s rate announcement was about as confusing as ever with numerous mixed messages. The outlook for future rate setting policy could not be more unclear. It’s as if the narrative and the data are disconnected.
