[ AJO Podcast ] Housing Won’t Crash, But This Is What WILL Happen Through 2030
The housing market isn’t crashing —and it’s not going to. Something more gradual, and for many, painful, will be drawn out over the next five years, as a “slow motion reset” takes place on a scale many of us have never experienced.
You can already see it around you. Houses are sitting on the market longer, even as mortgage rates fall. People want to buy a home, but who can take the risk in this job market? Pending sales are down, but more Americans are trying to get a mortgage. This is a stalemate that will last until 2030, but what does that mean for the average American?
Some markets will fare better than others. Some are already seeing delinquencies and foreclosure rates rise, leaving sellers in a bind. A “silent killer” is coming after these homeowners, and “soft” pricing could be on the table for years to come.
Which markets are the most (and least) at risk? Will the housing market crash? Where will Americans move to when job prospects dwindle, and what’s the one big outlier that could change everything?
The reset has already begun. Are you prepared for what’s coming?

[ SSI Podcast ] Where to Buy a Self Storage Facility (Finding Markets 101)
Before you buy your first self storage investment, you’ll need to figure out where to buy. But in a country with over 10,000 different cities, just picking wherever you find a deal won’t cut it.
Today, we’re showing you exactly how to find the best self storage market for you—and it may be closer than you think. This is the checklist we use when analyzing any area for self storage investing, along with the metrics that matter most when deciding whether or not to buy there.
How much does population growth really matter? What if new facilities are being built there? Should you buy close to home, or is remote self storage investing easier than you think? And what’s the one “king” of metrics that shows you whether or not your self storage facility will flourish or fail?
Then, once you find the market, how do you get deals sent to you? We’ll share exactly who to connect with and even how to find off-market facilities so you can acquire, manage, profit, and repeat.
Beginners, this is the first stage of your self storage business—do not skip it.

[ Short ] The Math of Interest Rates: Why You’re Losing Money Every Month
Interest rates are the invisible tide that dictates whether you build wealth or lose it—even if you have zero debt. I’m breaking down how central bank policies and the Fed's mandate on inflation directly impact your rent, your groceries, and your ability to achieve financial independence.
Hope you enjoy the new resources.
That's it for this week - until next time!
