The “Golden Age” of Real Estate is Over. | Bigger Pockets Podcast

The golden age of real estate investing is over, and there’s a good chance it isn’t coming back (for a while, at least). We have to admit it—real estate deals aren’t nearly as good as they were in the 2010s. But here’s the thing…we’re still buying real estate. Even with low affordability, high interest rates, and still high home prices, real estate still makes much more sense as an investment than your other options. We can prove it, and we’re doing it in today’s episode. 

You know your crypto-buying uncle who’s always predicting a housing crash? Send him this episode. Dave presents the proof, backed by decades of data, showing that real estate remains one of the best risk-adjusted returns of any investment you can buy today.

And with sellers significantly outnumbering buyers and home prices starting to correct, this could be one of the best times to buy before demand boomerangs back and supply dwindles. Dave is buying right now, after reviewing all the data. So, if the numbers make sense for him, what’s holding you back?
