Hosted by the charismatic James A. Brown, this month we have three fantastic guests: James Rusch-Michener, Sharon Riddle, and Walter Johnson.
Let’s dive into the hot topics that everyone is talking about!
The Big Housing Apocalypse
First up, we’ve got some jaw-dropping news—80% of major U.S. counties are financially devastated!
Can you believe it? The dream of owning a home is turning into a nightmare for many, with skyrocketing home prices and mortgage rates. Some homeowners are spending up to 43% of their income on housing!
That’s just crazy. Our guests break down how this crisis is affecting both buyers and sellers, and what you can do to navigate these turbulent waters.
Commercial Real Estate Shake-Up
Next, we have a bold move shaking up the market.
Jade Shenker, star of Netflix’s “Owning Manhattan,” is leading a shift from residential to commercial real estate.
With high interest rates and limited housing inventory, she’s partnering with Cushman & Wakefield’s Bruce Mosler to showcase the potential of commercial properties.
It’s a game-changer, folks! Could this be the new gold rush in real estate? Our experts weigh in.
The Family-Office Boom
Did you know that the number of family offices is booming? With a 21% increase, wealthy individuals and families are diving into alternative investments like private equity and hedge funds.
This trend is reshaping the landscape, and our panel discusses how it’s impacting the broader market. It’s a fascinating look at how the ultra-rich manage their wealth and what it means for the rest of us.
Blackrock’s ETF Ambitions
Blackrock is making waves with its private market ETF ambitions, but not everyone is convinced. The acquisition of Preqin, a private markets data group, has raised eyebrows.
Can illiquid assets really fit into an ETF?
Our guests discuss the challenges and potential pitfalls of this bold move by one of the world’s largest asset managers.
Is Real Estate All It’s Cracked Up To Be?
A recent study suggests that investing in residential real estate might not be as lucrative as we thought.
From 1890 to 2006, much of the returns came from rental income rather than capital gains.

Condo Crisis in Florida
In Pembroke Pines, nearly 200 condos have been deemed unsafe, forcing families to move out. It’s a heartbreaking situation, and our guests discuss the broader implications for condo living and property management in Florida.
