2242: Construction Costs, Business Startups, and Trump's Border Policy Impact on Housing Affordability and Construction

Jason Hartman discusses real estate investing trends and economic factors impacting the housing market. He highlights rising construction costs, labor shortages, and material price increases as key drivers of housing prices. Hartman emphasizes the importance of being an active investor rather than trying to time the market. He analyzes business startup trends across the US, noting Florida's strong performance. The potential impact of Trump's immigration policies on construction labor and housing affordability is explored. Hartman also touches on the Airbnb market and debunks predictions of a crash. He encourages investors to optimize their portfolios for various factors like cash flow, appreciation, and ease of management, offering free consultations.
