There will be some huge changes to the real estate market not only in 2025 but through 2028. With signs pointing to a supply slowdown, this may be one of the last chances to invest in real estate before prices, rents, and demand significantly rise. So today, right at the start of 2025, bringing on co-host and expert flipper James Dainard and multifamily expert (who correctly predicted the commercial real estate crash) Brian Burke to share the best strategies for 2025 and beyond.

Every year, more and more people say it’s not the right time to buy real estate, only for them to return the next year and wish they had purchased real estate. Let’s make sure that isn’t you in 2026. We’re seeing some massive opportunities, with substantial price cuts in multifamily. But that’s not all; there are single-family deals to be done in markets that the masses overlook entirely.

James and Brian even share what they’re trying to buy in 2025, the markets they think will have the best growth over the next ten years, and why you should be trying your absolute hardest to purchase investment properties before 2027 (we’ll get into why in the episode!).
