Episode notes
Look Beyond Your Backyard
- Don't just invest in your backyard, explore other markets for better returns.
- Consider the S&P 500's performance and the N-CREIF index to benchmark real estate investments.
Key Metrics for Market Analysis
- Analyze job growth, home price growth, population growth, income growth, and crime reduction when comparing cities for investment.
- The quality of jobs matters as much as quantity; high-paying jobs drive economic growth and rent increases.
Consider Supply and Demand Dynamics
- Factor in supply, a crucial sixth metric, by analyzing new constructions in a market.
- Use CoStar reports to assess future supply; high supply can lower rents, impacting single-family and multifamily investments.
