The Path to 8% Mortgage Rates (opens the original)
Read excerpt
8% mortgage rates are now on the table, and unfortunately, that’s not even the high end of estimates for where we’re going next. With bond yields hitting 20-year peaks and no end in sight for rising inflation, we may be stuck here for a while. If you’re starting to sweat, don’t worry—we are, too. Thankfully, it’s not all bad news for the housing market, because those who pivot will profit. After a little too much anxiety, Dave called James and Kathy to get their read on mortgage rates—what does
The Housing Market Correction Is Spreading (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The housing market correction is about to get worse. Before, the Northeast and Midwest markets were insulated from the sizable price drops happening in places like Texas and Florida, but not anymore. The correction is spreading, and the once “safe” markets are creeping closer and closer to price cuts, concessions, and desperate sellers becoming the norm.

Read excerpt
The U.S. government may have just lost the war on mortgage rates. Last week, the U.S. Treasury announced one of its biggest bond buyback programs in years—a whopping $6 billion allocated to (hopefully) lower bond yields, and by proxy, interest rates. Not only did it backfire, but it may have angered the bond investors so much that the market’s recovery is now in jeopardy. Do we still have any hope of lowering bond yields and mortgage rates so the housing market can get back in business? Today, w
This Is Better Than the 1% Rule (New Real Estate Rule) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The rules of real estate investing have changed. For years, investors were using the one-percent rule to quickly determine if a real estate deal would cash flow. But the one-percent rule, rent-to-price ratio, and other common rules of thumb have a glaring blind spot. They account for purchase price, but they don’t account for expenses. Meanwhile, mortgage rates, taxes, and insurance have all risen across the board—expenses that can easily kill your cash flow. So, Dave’s come up with a new rule o
