I’m writing a new book… 👀 Guess the title. Wrong answers might give me ideas for the next one. What do you hope it’s about?

In a rising market, your home is a hot air balloon. In a falling market, it's an anchor. In 2010, nobody called their house an investment. They called it a mortgage payment. Same house. Different market.

Everybody wants lower rates. Nobody wants the competition that comes with them. STR supply growth is the slowest since the pandemic. Lower borrowing costs help buyers. Slower supply growth can help existing hosts. What are you seeing in your market?

The question changed. 👀 For 10 years, investors asked: which deal makes me the most money? The question now: which one loses me the least? Build your reserves. If the market freezes, cash is what gives you options.

Airbnb’s new rules, in one line to hosts: “We provided you this person, but they’re ours.” No putting guests in your CRM. No marketing to them for direct bookings. Whoever controls the lead controls everything. Text AIRBNB26 to 833-777-0309 for the free breakdown.

What’s the one habit that tells you someone won’t make it in the world of real estate?

Everyone’s watching interest rates. Meanwhile, insurance, property taxes and HOA fees are having the year of their lives. They’re killing more deals than rates. Change my mind. 🤠

If your Airbnb only cash flows because guests do 45 minutes of laundry before checkout, did you ever have a real business? Airbnb just banned checkout chores and guest data collection. Emily Lopez and I break down why on Short Term Talk 👇

The Fed held rates steady today. 📌 Here’s what you CAN control: how you shop your loan. Most borrowers ask “what’s your rate?” and get a number that looks great while points and fees are hidden behind it. Ask this instead: “I want a 6% rate. What’s it gonna cost me with you?”

No job. No income. Told "sorry" by every bank. 🚫 She still closed on her home. 🏡 After her divorce, she moved to Florida with her kids to start over, with a $1M settlement in the bank but no paycheck yet. Conventional lenders said no.

“It felt like every decision I had made… like I was a total fraud.” Ryan Weimer got through it with one thought: “This is where everybody else quits.” 🐉 Full episode on The David Greene Show. Link in bio. #realestateinvesting #entrepreneurship #mindset #resilience #podcast

Hosts: New Haven's STR ban just cleared committee 5-2. Athens froze new rentals downtown and active listings there fell 29%. Regulation doesn't send a warning letter. If your whole business is one platform in one city, what's plan B?

Fed meets tomorrow after hiking in September. Hike, hold or cut? Reply with your call. Hint: your mortgage rate cares more about the 10-year than the press conference.

The Fed wraps up its meeting this Wednesday, and the big question is what happens with rates. 📊 Will they hike, hold, or cut? Drop your prediction in the comments 👇 Once the decision is announced Wednesday, Christian and I will go LIVE to break down what it means.

He got locked in the shower… and started calling his landlord from inside it. 🚿📱 One of our DG Mastermind members just started self-managing his rentals, so we got into the real stuff: how do you actually find good tenants? This story is what happens when you don't.

Everyone’s asking when rates will come down. Wrong question. A 3% rate won’t save you if your tenant lost their job. A cheap mortgage on a house nobody can afford to rent is still a bad deal. Cash flow comes from people being able to pay you. Agree or disagree?

🗞️ BREAKING: The Airbnb rules just changed… and it’s bad. Hosts can’t ask guests to press START on the dishwasher. Can’t ask them to walk the trash to the bear bin. Can’t fine for smoking. Can’t add a contract.

The Airbnb drama isn't about dishes and towels. You're missing something much bigger if you're caught up in the wrong argument.

Airbnb just told hosts they can’t ask guests to press START on the dishwasher. 🫠 New house rules, no fines, no contracts, and refunds handed out without proof. If you’re a host, the message is clear: it’s your property, but it’s their platform and their rules.
