North Country Wealth Management Podcast

In Episode 10, Justin shares his view on what's behind the stock sell-off and the highest inflation we've seen in 40 years.  

In Episode 8, CFP® Justin Dering breaks down his own experiences with real estate to help his audience better analyze this often-misunderstood asset class.

In the first part of episode 8, Justin analyzes his recent experience of buying and selling a home during one of the hottest runs for housing and compares this to owning stocks. 

For the second part of the episode, he shares the details of an investment he made in an apartment complex through a real estate partnership, known as real estate syndication.  Real estate syndication (or property syndication) is a partnership between several investors who combine their skills, resources, and capital to purchase and manage a property they otherwise couldn't afford or manage on their own.
