Listen Later

Have you seen the headlines lately? If so, you might be tempted to pump the brakes on real estate investing and wait for the economy to pick up. But you could be missing out on huge wealth-building opportunities we haven’t seen in years. Today, we’re sharing how YOU can gain an edge in this housing market!


Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! By this point, you’ve probably heard it all: the market has slowed. The economy has weakened. Unemployment is on the rise. Some say we’re still headed for a recession. What does this all mean for real estate investors, especially rookies looking to take down their first deals? As you’re about to hear, Ashley and Tony believe you have a golden opportunity to invest in real estate right now!


Those who wait on the sidelines could regret missing out, while those who make moves today could easily come out ahead. Tune in to learn why time in the market almost always beats timing the market, how to lower your investing risk with “conservative” investment analysis, and the different levers you can pull to buy rental properties at a deep discount!
