    Demographics, Migration, and the $100 Trillion Wealth Transfer with Ken Gronbach

    What do demographics, migration patterns, and a $100 trillion wealth transfer have to do with real estate investing? In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Kathy Fettke sits down with demographic expert Ken Gronbach to discuss the population trends he believes will shape the economy and housing market for years to come.   Ken explains why falling birth rates around the world are creating labor shortages, why the United States remains in a stronger position than many developed nations, and how an estimated $100 trillion wealth transfer from Baby Boomers to younger generations could influence housing demand, consumer spending, and investment activity.   They also discuss migration to the South, the outlook for multifamily housing, the reshoring of manufacturing, the rise of Gen Z's "tool belt generation," and why demographic trends may be more important than today's headlines when making long-term investment decisions.   If you're a real estate investor looking beyond interest rates and market cycles, this episode offers a big-picture perspective on where future demand and opportunity may emerge.   DISCLAIMER The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are provided for informational purposes only, and should not be construed as an offer to buy or sell any securities or to make or consider any investment or course of action.
