KEY TAKEAWAYS
We were joined by Charles Bulthuis of Reformation Asset Management firm in this session. His company offers a holistic approach to acquiring, managing, and growing real estate assets utilizing a comprehensive array of services. They will tailor an investment strategy to match your individual goals and execute it at every step with deep expertise.
Charles provided his analysis of economic cycles and how they impact investment decisions. He used historical comparisons from the 1970s and 1980s where conditions were similar including:
- Rising inflation that cause demand-destruction
- Rising interest rates
- Reduction in transactional volume
- Political unrest
- Energy crisis
- Supply chain issues
Currently, we are trending towards stagflation which is defined by rising inflation, slow economic growth, and increased unemployment. Key economic indicators such as these, inform strategic decision-making.
In the past, tools used to combat recession included:
- Reduce government spending
- Lower interest rates
- Increase energy production
However, until we see government policy supporting these types of actions, we can expect current trends to continue.
What does this mean for real estate investors? Good news, real estate remains a strong asset class even during these uncertain times. Charles anticipates rents to increase. This will be driven by population growth combined with an existing housing shortage and the cost to build new homes being high. He then provided an argument for why multi-unit properties can provide more security than single-family home rentals.
For those looking to diversify, Charles shared a few of his preferred alternatives along with his rationale for choosing them.
