They also compare the pros and cons of REITs versus direct physical real estate ownership under the new federal regulations. Addtionally, the guys discuss Houston’s record-breaking $14.5 million St. Regis penthouse listing and the latest Census data showing a surprising 43% slowdown in Texas’ population growth.
