    Darius Classic | Are We in a Housing Bubble?

    Are we in a housing bubble? Could the events of 2008 be happening all over again? These are questions that are being asked by both experts in the housing market and those in the media. The temptation is to assume that history is repeating itself, and the same factors that created the 2008 crash are once again at work.  In today's episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius wades into the debate with his own insights on the current housing market. He believes that talk of a 'return to 2008' is simply untrue and shows a lack of understanding of the industry. In this episode you'll discover: - How Darius' own experiences working in the mortgage industry in 2008 informs his current views. - The various elements that contributed to the 2008 housing crash, such as the banking crisis. - Why the challenges of the current housing market are nothing like the ones seen 15 years ago. Join Darius as he cuts through the media noise and brings some clarity to this subject. Enjoy! What You'll Learn in this Show: Darius' experience working in the mortgage industry during the 2008 crash. Some of the factors that, at the time, helped create the crisis. Why "it's another 2008n housing crisis" represents flawed thinking. And so much more...

    439 | Jon Irvine (Part 2) | The Future of Housing: How One Law Could Cut Home Prices in Half

    In Part 2 of this conversation on The Greatness Machine, host Darius Mirshahzadeh sits down again with real estate developer and former mortgage industry executive Jon Irvine to dive deep into America's housing affordability crisis and the groundbreaking California legislation that could reshape how homes are built across the country. Jon shares a pivotal personal moment, selling a modest 2,000 sq ft Beverly Grove home for $3.35 million, that crystallized why younger generations are being priced out of homeownership. From there, the conversation explores California Senate Bill 1123 (SB 1123), a transformative zoning law that could allow developers to build up to 10 homes where only one previously stood, at price points 30–50% below comparable market properties. The episode also touches on the role of AI in streamlining permitting, the lingering impact of the LA wildfires on housing policy, and Jon's ambitious plan to build 500–1,000 homes in the Los Angeles basin over the next three to four years.
