Coffee with Bill: Ghost Stories of the Market - Debunking Economic Fallacies in Real Estate with Bill Bymel
Economic fallacies are like ghost stories for the financially literate: they persist, despite evidence to the contrary. What fallacies might be influencing your real estate and financial decisions?
Join me for this episode of Real Estate Lowdown Coffee with Bill as we unravel some of the most entrenched misconceptions shaping our economic landscape.
From the aftermath of what President Trump termed "Liberation Day" and the ripple effects of new tariffs to revisiting Alan Greenspan's pre-2008 housing crisis remarks, we'll explore how influential figures can fall into the trap of faulty reasoning.
We'll also scrutinize the zero-sum fallacy that perpetuates the notion that one party's gain has to be another's loss, questioning the assumptions that guide our economic thinking and urging a fresh perspective on growth and transactions.
Beyond financial fallacies, we of course examine the real estate market's most stubborn misconceptions. Are we really facing a housing shortage, or is that just a narrative spun by those with something to gain?
With data in hand, we uncover how increased housing units are outstripping population growth, pointing to a potential oversupply rather than scarcity - underscoring the fallacies maintained by stakeholders whose livelihoods depend on these narratives.
Amidst the allure of low interest rates and an era of "free money," we'll dismantle the narrative of cap rates that seemed lower than they should have been.
Tune in for a revealing discussion that cuts through the noise to challenge conventional wisdom.
