We're 4 Million Housing Units Short—How Supply Gaps Look Across America

The U.S. housing market is short nearly 4 million homes, pushing prices and rents to new heights and making homeownership increasingly out of reach. Despite record-high home completions in 2024, it could still take decades to close the supply gap—especially in the Northeast and Midwest, where progress is painfully slow. In this episode, we break down why the housing shortage persists, which regions are making the most progress, and how Realtor.com’s new “Let America Build” campaign aims to cut red tape and speed up construction. Can policymakers fix the crisis, or will affordability continue to slip away? Subscribe to the BiggerPockets Channel for the best real estate investing education online!

The Loans That Caused the 2008 Recession Are Coming Back

With 30-year mortgage rates stuck near 7%, adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) are creeping back into the housing market. Could they be the key to unlocking affordability, or are they a risky gamble for homebuyers? We break down the pros, cons, and whether real estate investors should consider ARMs in today’s high-rate environment. Then, we dive into Trump’s potential backdoor influence on the Federal Reserve. With plans to slash government spending by $1 trillion, Trump may force the Fed’s hand on rate cuts. Could fiscal tightening trigger monetary easing? And what does it mean for mortgage rates and the housing market? Subscribe to the BiggerPockets Channel for the best real estate investing education online!

Are These the Most Competitive Rental Markets This Year?

January’s rental market saw some major shifts, with Washington, D.C. holding onto the top spot as the most in-demand city for renters. Atlanta and St. Paul, MN, followed close behind, with St. Paul seeing a 114% surge in favorited listings. The South dominated the rankings, with 14 of the top 30 cities located in the region, while the Midwest also saw strong interest. Meanwhile, Las Vegas made a shocking 69-spot leap, landing just outside the top 10. What’s driving these trends? Affordability, job growth, and migration patterns are shaping where renters are looking in 2025. Cities with lower costs of living and strong job markets—like Cincinnati and Kansas City—are seeing increased demand, while high-cost areas in the Northeast are struggling to attract renters.

Investor Purchases Take a Dip in Q4—A Warning Sign?

Investor home purchases are slowing nationwide, with Florida seeing some of the sharpest declines as market conditions shift. In this episode, we break down why real estate investors are pulling back, what’s driving the decline, and how it’s impacting home prices and competition across different regions. While overall investor purchases dropped nearly 4% in the fourth quarter—the lowest for that time of year since 2016—Florida metros like Orlando and Miami saw double-digit declines as rising insurance costs, cooling demand, and oversupply in some markets make real estate less attractive. At the same time, investors are still active in select markets like Seattle and the Bay Area, where activity has increased. With rental demand weakening and home prices plateauing, is this a turning point for investor-driven housing markets? And what does it mean for everyday buyers?

Will Home Prices Fall in the South or the North?

The housing market is splitting into two distinct realities. In some regions, buyers are finally gaining leverage, securing price cuts, and seeing inventory levels rise above pre-pandemic norms. In others, housing supply remains critically low, keeping prices high and competition fierce. Subscribe to the BiggerPockets Channel for the best real estate investing education online!

Tyler is back … downgrading to 2 stars. What happened to Matt Meir? Matt was perfect for this content. This show is insufferable with the way Tyler talks - like he’s reading children’s stories. Unsubscribing.

I listened to this everyday. But increasingly it’s gone away from news and whole episodes are basically someone’s opinion. And it’s largely become political. It’s been disappointing, as I had relied on this as a valid news source. I might check again in a few months to see if things go back. But for now, I have to step away, I didn’t subscribe to this to listen to someone rant on a podcast.
Best podcast for both new and experienced real estate investors
