    Discipline Is Not Willpower

    Send a text Most people misunderstand discipline and mistake willpower for consistency. In this episode, we break down why real discipline has nothing to do with motivation and everything to do with structure, systems, and removing self-negotiation. If your discipline collapses under stress, this conversation will challenge how you’ve been approaching growth and standards. Support the show Introducing the 60-Day Deal Finder!

    Standards Are Not Goals

    Send us a text Most men talk about goals, but few live by standards. In this episode, we break down why goals are optional while standards are enforced, and how that distinction shapes identity, execution, and long-term results. If you’ve been raising your goals without seeing change, this conversation will show you why standards—not motivation—are what actually compound. Support the show Introducing the 60-Day Deal Finder!

    The Negotiator's Market: Why Now Is The Time To Buy Before Rates Drop | Real Estate Market Update w/ Martin Perdomo

    Send us a text Ready for a real estate reality check? The extreme market swings we've witnessed for years are finally settling into something resembling balance. In the notoriously volatile Bay Area, median home prices have dipped 4% to $1.3 million, homes are sitting for 30 days instead of 18, and only one in five properties faces a bidding war—down dramatically from the two-thirds that sparked frenzies in 2021. This cooling trend creates a strategic window for prepared investors and homebuyers. While today's 6.58% mortgage rates have lowered typical monthly payments to $2,668 (the lowest in seven months), buyer demand remains surprisingly muted. The smart money sees this hesitation as opportunity. Sellers don't want their homes lingering for 40+ days, creating leverage for negotiating concessions, closing credits, and rate buy-downs that simply weren't possible during the pandemic boom. What makes this moment particularly significant are the demographic shifts reshaping the housing landscape. Homeownership among 25-34 year olds sits at just 39%, while nationwide rentership has climbed to 36%—its highest level since 2016. Combined with JP Morgan's prediction of four Federal Reserve rate cuts by year-end, we're looking at a potential strategic sweet spot: buy with negotiating power now in a cool market, then refinance when rates drop. Remember the fundamental truth of real estate: when rates decrease, prices typically increase as affordability improves. Most consumers buy mortgage payments, not houses—meaning this window of opportunity won't stay open indefinitely. As I tell my students: words are loud, but numbers scream. And right now, the numbers are screaming opportunity for those willing to move while others wait.

    Sanctions, Diesel Prices, and California Interventions: This Week's Business Landscape | Weekly Business Briefs w/ Martin Perdomo

    Send us a text The global markets are in constant motion, shaped by powerful forces that smart investors must navigate with precision. Today we dive deep into three critical market movers that are reshaping the business landscape and creating ripples across industries worldwide. Fresh sanctions targeting Iran's shipping and energy sectors signal that geopolitical risk remains a major factor in global markets. These measures don't just affect U.S.-Iran relations – they create complex ripple effects through supply chains, squeeze oil markets, and strain relationships with European and Asian trading partners. For business owners and investors, this serves as a powerful reminder to factor geopolitical tensions into strategic planning. Meanwhile, diesel prices are climbing in a rally that Bloomberg reports could extend well into fall, especially if the Fed implements anticipated rate cuts. Lower rates typically boost economic activity across freight transportation, construction, and manufacturing – all heavy diesel consumers. With already tight inventories and refinery bottlenecks, businesses face higher costs throughout supply chains. This perfect storm of economic conditions creates both challenges and opportunities for the strategic investor. We also examine a significant federal court ruling blocking troop deployment in California, which introduces new layers of uncertainty into one of the world's largest economies. Beyond the political implications, this legal development creates planning hurdles for businesses navigating California's complex regulatory landscape. The ruling highlights deeper questions about crime, homelessness, and government intervention in major cities – issues that directly impact real estate values, labor markets, and daily business operations. Join me on Instagram @EliteStrategist where I'm breaking down real-time deal flows, wealth-building tactics, and market plays we don't share anywhere else.

    Buyers Now Have the Upper Hand as Seller-Buyer Gap Hits 10-Year High | Real Estate Market Update w/ Martin Perdomo

    Send us a text The real estate landscape is shifting dramatically as mortgage rates ease to a 10-month low of 6.58%, creating a strategic window of opportunity for savvy investors. This pivotal moment represents the calm before what promises to be a resurgent market in 2025, offering a rare advantage for those with acquisition capital ready to deploy. What makes this moment extraordinary is the historic imbalance between market participants. Currently, there are 36% more sellers than buyers—the largest disconnect since 2013. This pressure has caused nearly 14,000 sellers to pull their listings between May and July alone, creating unprecedented negotiating leverage for prepared buyers. As pending home sales tick up 1.6% year-over-year and buyer demand indices begin to rise, the signs of a market transition are unmistakable. The smart play? Secure properties that cash flow at today's higher rates, knowing refinancing opportunities are on the horizon. Financial institutions are already underwriting loans with anticipated rate cuts factored in, signaling confidence in lower rates ahead. The fundamental principle remains true: you date the interest rate but marry the property. Properties performing adequately at 7-7.5% interest will generate exceptional returns when refinanced at the projected 5.75% within the next two years. This buy-now, refinance-later strategy positions investors to benefit from both current buyer leverage and future appreciation as the market inevitably heats up. Don't miss this transitional period before competition intensifies again.

The future looks bright for those who recognize and act on this strategic opportunity. Support the show Introducing the 60-Day Deal Finder!

    ICE Burnout, Fed Firings, and Tech Trade Wars Are Reshaping America's Economic Landscape | Weekly Business Briefs w/ Martin Perdomo

    Send us a text The tides of policy are shifting dramatically, and your financial future hangs in the balance. Martin Perdomo, the Elite Strategist, cuts through the noise to reveal how today's headlines directly impact your bottom line. Immigration enforcement has reached unprecedented levels, with ICE agents burning out amid a 250% surge in daily apprehensions. The human cost becomes painfully clear through Martin's firsthand account of his contractor's employee – a man married to an American citizen and following legal processes – who was detained in a pre-dawn operation and transferred across the country. Beyond the personal tragedy, this enforcement wave creates ripple effects through labor markets, housing, and service industries that smart investors must recognize and navigate. Meanwhile, the foundation of American monetary policy faces its greatest test in decades. Trump's firing of Fed Governor Lisa Cook over alleged mortgage fraud threatens the central bank's independence and could fundamentally alter how monetary decisions are made. If political influence penetrates the Fed's walls, expect increased volatility in yields, inflation hedges, and bond markets – creating both danger and opportunity for prepared investors. The global economic chessboard grows more complex as the administration positions US tech companies as the frontline in an escalating trade war. New tariffs targeting countries that tax American tech giants might protect domestic interests but risk igniting broader conflicts with the EU and UK. For investors in semiconductors, data companies, and international markets, these developments demand immediate attention and strategic positioning. Follow Martin on Instagram @EliteStrategist for real-time breakdowns of cash flow strategies, wealth-building plays, and market tactics you won't find elsewhere.

    Jackson Hole Speech Could Make or Break the Market This Fall | Weekly Business Briefs w/ Martin Perdomo

    Send us a text The economic landscape is sending mixed signals to wealth builders, and your strategic positioning needs to account for these crosscurrents. Home Depot's recent earnings miss reveals a telling shift in consumer behavior that directly impacts your investment strategy. With net sales falling short at $45.28 billion and a 2.2% decline in foot traffic, consumers are clearly pulling back from large renovations in favor of small maintenance projects. This isn't just about one retailer's performance—it's a broader indicator of how rate sensitivity is reshaping spending patterns across markets. The spotlight now turns to Federal Reserve Chair Powell's upcoming Jackson Hole speech, potentially the most consequential market event this season. Markets have already priced in an 83% probability of a September rate cut, but the real question remains: will Powell signal a dovish turn or maintain a cautious stance? Treasury officials and political figures are pushing for aggressive cuts between 150-400 basis points, yet the Fed's independence will ultimately determine the path forward. Make no mistake—analysts warn that without clear dovish signals, markets could slide 7-15% this fall, making your defensive positioning critical right now. Meanwhile, the S&P's reaffirmation of the US AA+ credit rating offers temporary fiscal reassurance, with tariff revenue estimated to contribute up to $2.8 trillion, offsetting recent spending increases. However, persistent deficits exceeding 100% of GDP remain a long-term vulnerability. The rating agency explicitly cited Federal Reserve independence as the strongest defense against future downgrades—a powerful reminder that monetary policy autonomy directly impacts market stability. Whether you're repositioning for potential rate cuts, adjusting exposure to consumer cyclicals, or monitoring fiscal developments, staying informed and strategically nimble will be your greatest advantage in capitalizing on the opportunities ahead.

    Studio Goldmines and Three-Bedroom Busts: Following the Money in Rentals | Real Estate Market Update w/ Martin Perdomo

    Send us a text The rental market has reached a pivotal turning point that smart investors can't afford to ignore. After more than two years of stagnant or declining rents, we're witnessing the biggest year-over-year jump in apartment rents in two and a half years. At $1,790, the median asking rent has climbed 1.7% since last July – and this is just the beginning of what could be a significant upward trajectory. What's behind this shift? A perfect storm of economic factors. Homeownership remains financially out of reach for many Americans, pushing more people into rentals. Simultaneously, multifamily construction has hit the brakes – permits are down 23% nationally since the pandemic building boom. This supply-demand imbalance is handing power back to landlords after years of tenant-favorable conditions. The geographic patterns tell an equally compelling story. San Jose leads with an astounding 8.8% rent increase while its building permits plummeted 74%. Chicago, Washington DC, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia all saw rent jumps exceeding 7.5%. Meanwhile, markets like Jacksonville and Austin, where construction continues aggressively, are experiencing rent decreases. Perhaps most revealing is the unit size data: studios and one-bedrooms are up 3.4%, while three-plus bedroom units fell 1.5% – clear evidence of changing demographic preferences as younger generations delay family formation. For multifamily investors, these signals demand action. With Gen Z (larger than the Boomer generation) entering prime renting age and construction slowing, we're heading toward an even more severe housing shortage in the next 2-3 years. Don't let higher interest rates keep you on the sidelines – you can refinance later, but the opportunity to secure properties before this supply crunch fully materializes won't wait. Follow me on Instagram and Facebook @EliteStrategist for the unfiltered strategies we're implementing behind the scenes to capitalize on these market shifts. Be strategic, be early, be elite.
