The Morning After The Election

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/11/06

On today’s show we are taking a look at the state of affairs, the morning after the election. Thankfully, the election result is clear. The last thing the US needs is months of conflict over the validity of the election. Let me be clear, I don’t think either candidate is the best choice for the US. But then, I don’t really get to have a voice. I’m not even able to vote in the US election. Some of Donald’s policies are effective, others not. Donald’s personal character is a deal breaker for too

A Game of Cat And Mouse

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/11/06

On today’s show we are talking about getting a project through the approval process in city council. Every city’s municipal government is tasked with managing the city’s resources along with planning the city’s land use. Getting a project approved doesn’t happen by accident. It requires a lot of hard work. In every community there are people who will come out of the woodwork to oppose your project. These are people who you have never met, who are not negatively affected by the existence of your

Will The President Influence Your Investments?

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/11/04

On today’s show we are taking a look at what the US might look like post election. The race is probably too close to call. The left leaning media are predicting a Harris victory and the right leaning media are predicting a Trump victory. Anyone who says they know definitively can’t possibly know. Voter turnout will have a major impact in the swing states. In those ridings where the vote is close, a larger turnout for one group versus another could be enough to make the difference, regardless of what

BOM - "Profit First" by Mike Michalowicz

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/11/01

Ou book this month is “Profit First” by Michael Michalowicz. You’ve no doubt heard the advice from financial advisors called “Pay yourself first”. This book sounds like the same advice, only it’s quite different. It breaks down the human behaviours that result in a money management cycles that ultimately can become a trap. Most businesses focus on growing revenue to generate cash and stay ahead of expenses. The problem with this approach is that the additional revenue attracts hidden expenses

Bringing Aging Parents Back Home

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/31

On today’s show we are talking about solving the needs of aging population. As parents age, some families resort to independent living, maybe assisted living, professionally managed institutions. These are quite expensive and not everyone can afford this. In fact, there is a huge percentage of the population who can’t afford senior housing. For many, that means family takes on the burden of caregiving. As older adults become more reduced in their mobility, the family home might no longer be

The Risk Of Rolling Boulders

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/30

Yes, you read that correctly. Today’s show is a deep dive into a due diligence item that we often don’t think about. I’m going to read a few extracts from an engineering letter we received as part of an information package on a property. The project in question is a residential subdivision with a large rock outcropping in the middle of the property. The top of the hill consists of large boulders and the residential area below is surrounding the rock outcropping. The residential homes would be

Beginner Series - Negotiating Construction Contracts

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/29

On today’s show we are breaking down the different types of construction contracts that you can sign. Now let me be clear, I’m not here to offer any type of legal advice. I’m merely sharing our experience when it comes to undertaking different types of construction projects. The first thing you need to get clear on is whether you are hiring a general contractor or a construction manager. This is a distinct choice. In either case, there will be subcontractors involved for the specific work items

Is There A Surplus of Construction Resources?

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/28

On today’s show we are looking at the demand for construction materials and labor. The number of housing starts is way down nationally. This is true for single family homes and for multi-family apartments. So it stands to reason that there should be plenty of labor available for your projects if you decide you want to undertake a project in this current environment. -------------- **Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso

Making Sense of Conflicting Market Statistics

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/25

On today’s show we are looking at the national average numbers for residential real estate. The statistics seem to be conflicting and it seems like the numbers are not adding up. On today’s show we are going to unwind the apparent contradiction to make sense of what is truly going on. The national association of realtors reported that sales volume in September fell to the lowest level since October of 2010 with an annualized rate of 3.84M homes being sold. This is a 3.5% decline from the same

Bank of Canada Drops Interest Rates by 0.5%

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/24

The Bank of Canada took a victory lap yesterday as they cut interest rates by 0.5%. This is the fourth consecutive rate cut since June. The rationale given was that inflation in September hit 1.6% down from 2.2% in August. The fact is, Canada’s economy is extremely weak right now. The drop in rates is needed to maybe stimulate growth. For real estate investors, the rise in interest rates over the past few years has created a glut of condo’s for sale in the market. About 25% of new condo’s appear

Starbucks' Mistake Is Your Opportunity

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/23

On today’s show we are talking about a service business that used to be on top of its segment in the market. The company we’re talking about is Starbucks. So it’s no surprise to me that today Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol announced a major drop in both earnings and revenue. They also suspended financial guidance for the upcoming quarters. Once a brand loses loyalty to the brand, it’s hard to get it back. Same store sales are down 6%. Attempts to win back customers with various promotions have

Do Central Banks Really Matter?

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/22

On today’s show we are wondering if governments and central banks in particular have any effect on the repairing the economy. It’s a simple question really. If central banks can truly influence the economy, inflation and the unemployment rate, then why are central banks all behaving the same way at approximately the same time? Why is the bank of Canada going to lower interest rates later this week? Why did the ECB lower rates last week? Why did the Federal Reserve lower rates by half a point a

How To Evaluate A Subcontractor Bid

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/21

On today’s show we are talking about how to evaluate a bid from a subcontractor. If you follow the procurement method used by most government departments, in the US and in Canada, the process makes sense. Everyone needs to meet the minimum requirements. For all those who meet the minimum requirements, the purchaser will select the lowest bidder. Intuitively this makes sense. But it puts the burden on the purchaser to specify every aspect that matters to the buyer. My mentor Dr. Nido Qubein says

Panama Golden Visa Program

2024/10/17

On today’s show we are continuing our series on international outlook. There are many jurisdictions that position themselves as great retirement destinations. If you’re visiting, then you can usually stay in some places up to 90 days on a visitor visa before you need to leave. Some places allow up to six months. But if you’re looking for a location for a winter residence and want to stay longer than 90 or 180 days then you will likely need a residency visa. Some countries offer a lengthy process
