It’s About to Get Good! (2025 Housing Market Predictions): Today, we’re releasing our 2025 housing market predictions, and let’s just say we’re feeling optimistic about the future. Many of you may have been waiting for a housing crash or correction. But where is it? In short, it never happened. Home prices kept climbing, rent prices finally stabilized, and mortgage rates stayed at eye-watering highs. What’s coming next for the 2025 housing market? Are things about to get better (or worse) for homebuyers and real estate investors? This is when Dave takes out his crystal ball (federal housing data and spreadsheets) to predict what’s to come in the new year. He’s giving his full forecast on three crucial topics, home prices, mortgage rates, and rent growth, and explaining his predictions and reasoning behind them. If Dave is correct, it may be a good year for real estate investing. Don’t believe us? Stick around!

Were We Wrong About the Housing Market? (+ 2025 Predictions): It’s what you’ve all been waiting for—our 2025 housing market predictions! We’re sharing where we think home prices, interest rates, and real estate will be over the next year. But we’re not just talking about 2025.

But how did top real estate companies like Zillow perform on their forecasts? Don’t worry; we’re rating their predictions as well!

2025’s Massive Opportunity for Real Estate Investing (Before It’s Too Late): Real estate investing may not see an opportunity like this for years. We’re in one of the wildest economic periods: mortgage rates are high, inflation has cooled, stock prices are hitting records, and the housing supply chain is slowing dramatically. What happens next? In short, something really, really good for real estate investors. And this isn’t hype—it’s precisely what the data points to. Ben Miller, Fundrise CEO and one of our favorite macroeconomic experts, is back to break down his four data points that directly point to a win for real estate investors in 2025 and beyond. Answer this: what happens when housing supply is low, little to no new inventory is coming online, interest rates come back down, and everyone’s competing for homes? The answer: prices go up. That reality is coming to fruition soon, and those who already own real estate are poised to reap significant profits. Those who sat on the by BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast

I Said I'd Never Flip a House...Why I’m Starting in 2025: Dave said he’d never flip a house. He doesn’t have the handyman skills; he doesn’t like managing contractors, and he can’t design a floor plan. So why now, coming into 2025, has he decided to flip his first house? It’s simple—an opportunity was presented to him that he couldn’t pass up. Partnering with expert investor James Dainard, Dave is flipping this house with James acting as the operator and Dave as the investor. If you’ve ever wanted to get into house flipping but felt like Dave, this episode will show you how to start. If Dave isn’t managing contractors or handling permits, what role does he play? Today, Dave and James are walking through their unique house-flipping partnership, explaining why James made an offer on the property within hours of hearing about it, their rehab budget, renovation plan, potential profit, and some hiccups they could run into (asbestos!).

Should I Sell My 4% Interest Rate Rental Property? ($300K in Equity!): Should you keep, refinance, or sell your rental property? If you’re sitting on a low mortgage rate and plenty of equity, you’ve probably asked yourself this once or twice within the past year. Most people who bought a rental property before 2020 have seen unprecedented appreciation and rock-bottom interest rates and are likely sitting on a war chest-sized home equity position. But that equity could be better spent investing in new properties than keeping your old ones. This is Dave’s exact predicament. He’s got a property he bought back in 2016 that has over $300,000 in home equity. It’s cash flowing a solid $500 per month with a mortgage rate of just under four percent, but only producing a measly two percent cash-on-cash return. He’s getting four times the return on his recent investment property purchases, so should he sell?

The Expert Investor: Early Retirement is a Mistake, Rent INSTEAD of Buying!: Why does this veteran real estate investor say that early retirement and financial freedom are a bad idea? Why does he think renting, NOT buying a house, makes more sense for most Americans in 2025? And what’s the one mistake that lost him hundreds of thousands of dollars even after being an experienced investor for decades? Jonathan Greene, one of our favorite repeat guests, is back on the show to share. Jonathan’s father, a serial real estate investor, taught him everything about rental properties early on. Together, they walked potential properties, snuck into foreclosed homes, reviewed the profits and figures line by line, and even dealt with evictions together. This equipped Jonathan with the skills to not only build generational wealth for his family but also financial freedom for himself. However, once he achieved it, Jonathan realized that early financial freedom wasn’t worth it. But why? This episod by BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast

From the Forums: One Thing That Most Beginner Investors Should NOT Do: Should you borrow money for your first real estate deal? We’re not talking about taking an interest-free loan from your mom; we mean using “private money” to finance your investment. This type of investment property financing is usually reserved for the more experienced investors, but is it a bad idea for someone with such little experience? Is there another way to finance your first deal that gives you more wiggle room if you make a mistake? This is just one of the BiggerPockets Forum questions we’re answering today from investors like you. One investor on her second rental wants to know whether bankruptcy or late payments is an immediate red flag in a tenant application.

This Could Be Like Getting into Airbnb in 2012: While short-term rentals are seeing slowing demand, mid-term rentals are taking off (and fast). Mid-term rentals, also called medium-term rentals or MTRs, are thirty-day or longer stays, usually for traveling professionals or those who need temporary housing while relocating. These rentals give you more rent than a regular long-term rental, less turnover than short-term rentals, and can be successful in even the most average of markets. Where are MTRs heading next? We brought on Jeff Hurst, CEO of the leading MTR listing website Furnished Finder, to share the data he’s seeing. Jeff believes MTRs are still years away from peaking in demand and supply. But maybe he’s a little biased as someone who works in the field. Even as an industry insider, Jeff brought some solid stats that show that MTR is far from falling off the investing map. He’s so bullish on this strategy that he believes MTR is now where Airbnb was in 2012. But what should yo by BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast

Can Trump Push Jerome Powell Out of the Fed? w/WSJ's Nick Timiraos: Has the Federal Reserve gone too far? Many Americans are critical of the Fed’s move to raise interest rates sharply, pause for years, and then slowly start implementing rate cuts. The arguably most prominent critic of the Fed? President-Elect Donald Trump, who, shortly after nominating the current Fed chair, Jerome Powell, reversed his opinion on whether Powell was the right person for the job.

It’s so easy that even real estate investing beginners will have no trouble finding deals. What are we talking about? On-market, MLS (multiple listing service) properties for sale. You might think, “But everything on the market is overpriced; there are NO good deals left!” That’s where you’re wrong, and today’s guest proves it.

The Hidden Opportunity of Property “Rezoning” Making This Investor Wealthy: Is property “rezoning” the trick to making much more money in real estate? Our guest is using zoning laws to his favor by finding areas with hidden potential but NO space left to build. He then changes the zoning, builds new homes, and sells them FAST (and often over-asking price) to the local buyers waiting in line for inventory to arrive. You can do it, too, but you’ll need some beginner information before you start. Since 2016, Stuart Udis has been building homes in areas most investors overlook. The average investor sees an area with growing demand but realizes that they can’t build a home because a piece of land may NOT allow residential units, so they give up. Stuart instead gets both the city AND the local residents on his side, having all parties favor a zoning change, helping him be the only investor to build on that once-overlooked piece of land.

Okay, but how can home prices still be THIS high when the total home sales are twenty percent lower than average and around fifty percent under the recent highs? It’s simple—affordability struggles.
