19: Is The Stock Market Drop an Opportunity for Real Estate Investors? w/Clay Finck

Does a stock market crash affect real estate? We’ve seen home prices hit record growth over the past two years, with a slight slowdown happening right now. But nothing in the real estate market compares to the stock market selloff that has happened over the past six months. Index funds are down over twenty percent year to date, tech companies are quickly losing valuation, and the stock market doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. Is this an opportunity for real estate investors? Instead of letting landlords try to explain how equities work, we brought on Clay Finck from the Millennial Investing podcast to help educate us on what a good (or bad) buy looks like. Clay has spent years learning about value investing from the best stock trader of all time, Warren Buffett. He’s designed his portfolio to model the trading techniques Buffett engineered and thinks that this latest dip poses some interesting opportunities for investors of any asset class. Clay talks about recession-resistant stock picks, how to know whether a company is under or over-valued, and why stock investing could be a more passive alternative for the stressed-out landlord. We also have our panel of expert guests give their take on the stock market, how real estate investors should invest, and what their own portfolios look like. If you’re heavy on the real estate investing side of things, make sure you listen until the end, as there are some serious stock buying opportunities you may have never thought of. In This Episode We Cover How the Fed influences the stock market through quantitative easing and rate hikes Which stocks win during a recession (and which ones to stay away from) Dividend stocks and how to cash flow without owning any real estate Dollar-cost averaging as a smarter way to invest even as prices fall Whether or not to put your money into the stock market to save for your next deal Why some stock investors are ditching equities to make headache-free gains in real estate And So Much More!
