In this week’s NARPM podcast episode, Pete Neubig interviews Justin Anderson, founder and CEO of RentSmart, licensed broker and author of "Funny Money: Building Wealth in a System Rigged to Keep You Broke." Anderson argues that property managers are uniquely positioned to build wealth but often miss the opportunity and should aim to become investment advisors for their clients, suggesting that owning investment properties is key to becoming a better advisor. He claims that housing is cheaper now than it has ever been when measuring value by gold, and explains the four phases of the market cycle, emphasizing that the current "millionaire maker phase" is the best time for long-term investors to buy real estate because it is "on sale." The conversation also covers the importance of understanding neighborhood and property life cycles to find the best deals.
