Michelle Hawkins is a client who has attended a Meet the Masters live event and the most recent Creating Wealth Seminar and Property Tour in Cincinnati, Ohio. Michelle crunched her financial numbers only to discover that her pension was never going to be enough to support her during her retirement and she knew she couldn’t count on Social Security. Her investor journey started by reading all the investment books on the library shelves which led her to the sound decision of investing in income property. She shares her story and some sound investing advice. Key Takeaways: Jason’s Editorial: 1:53 Was the Orlando shooter on prescription drugs? If so, will anyone report on it?  8:22 The pension system will not support you. You need to find a diversified wealth creation system now.

2156: Unlocking the Secrets of Offshore Trusts: Strategies for Asset Protection with Mauricio Rauld Part 2

Learn about asset protection, entity structuring, and estate planning at jasonheartman.com. Access affordable, genuine attorney consultation starting at $29.97 for three entities. Act before you need it; prepare in advance. Protect your assets effectively with expert guidance. Today Jason welcomes Mauricio Rauld. Mauricio is the founder and CEO of Premier Law Group and spends 100% of his practice on syndications for real estate investors. With almost 20 years of securities experience, Mauricio specializes in Reg D exempt offerings and educates investors from around the world on how to navigate the complex world of securities laws. Jason and Mauricio discuss asset protection strategies, focusing on LLCs' limitations and the importance of charging order protection. LLCs offer liability limitations but aren't bulletproof; insurance is crucial. Charging orders safeguard against external threats, ensuring creditor access only to LLC distributions. States like Nevada and Wyoming provide exclusive charging order protection, even for single-member LLCs, unlike corporations. Corporations lack charging order protection, making LLCs superior for asset protection. Piercing the corporate veil and jurisdictional issues are highlighted concerns. The discussion suggests LLCs with trusts for enhanced protection. https://jasonhartman.com/protect #AssetProtection #LLC #Corporation #ChargingOrder #LegalStrategy #BusinessProtection #EntityFormation #RealEstate #Trusts #AssetManagement #RiskMitigation #LegalAdvice Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 1:23 Dig your well beforeyou get thirsty Mauricio Rauld interview part 1 2:35 You can't be late to THIS party 3:59 LLC's and charging order protection 15:00 Distinction between a corporation and an LLC 16:05 Internal vs. external threat 17:32 Trusts 22:29 Blog post: Comprehending how Economic Factors Affect the Real Estate Market    Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI  Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/  Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com        

2155: Shielding Your Assets: Expert Insights on LLCs, Trusts, Legal Shields & Risk Mitigation with Mauricio Rauld Part 1

Today's Flashback Friday is from episode 1013, published last June 13, 2018. Jason Hartman starts off the show giving President Trump credit where credit is due, and that's in regards to the summit in Singapore with North Korea. Trump has been able to get them to the negotiating table, which no other US president has been able to accomplish. Then, Jason gives a little warning about one of the scariest companies in the world today, Facebook. In the interview portion today we have the first half of Jason's interview with Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist at Windermere Real Estate. The two discuss what's going on in the macro US economy, what's going on with home inventory levels, some of the easiest ways to lower home prices, and the Millennial's (mostly futile) quest to save up for a down payment.  Key Takeaways: 2:55 Give credit where it's due, Trump got the meeting with North Korea, that's historic 9:09 All the (scary) ways Facebook is gathering your data Matthew Gardner Interview: 14:19 What's Matthew's take on what's going on in the macroeconomy 17:07 What's going on with new home development?

2154 FBF: Facebook Data Mining, New Home Development, Regulatory Impact on Home Prices & Millennials Trying to Buy Homes with Matthew Gardner

Jason finishes up his interview with Mike Simonsen of Altos Research stating that homebuyers adjust their expectations based on mortgage rates, currently stabilized around 7%. Rapid changes prompt swift comparisons, affecting buyer behavior. Small rate bumps incite fear of loss, while larger increases lead to resignation. Analysis of new listings and pending sales reveals a growing seller market, though inventory remains restricted. Median home prices approach pre-pandemic levels, signaling market stabilization. Despite rising prices, a slight increase in price reductions suggests softer demand. Altos Research provides data-driven insights for real estate professionals navigating market complexities, empowering informed decision-making. https://www.AltosResearch.com/ #RealEstateMarket #Homebuyers #MortgageRates #Inventory #SellerMarket #PriceTrends #MarketStabilization #AltosResearch #DataDriven #ExpertInsights #HousingMarket #BuyerBehavior #PriceReductions #MarketCommunication Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 1:34 Housing inventory is still very low 4:26 Join our Empowered Investor Pro FREE monthly Zoom meetings JasonHartman.com/Wednesday Mike Simonsen interview Part 2 5:11 Overall housing inventory 7:03 How many sellers/listings each week 9:15 Adjusting data per capita  11:24 Sales rate  13:55 The number of sales versus the number of pending sales 17:08 Cutting home prices  21:27 Blog post:  An Assessment on How Infrastructure Construction Affects Estate Costs The Integral Analysis    Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI  Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/  Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com
