  <title>2442: The Job Market and a Housing Shortage of 4 Million |  NAR Chief Economist, Lawrence Yun</title>
  <description>  Jason Hartman&amp;amp;nbsp;discusses the enduring stability of&amp;amp;nbsp;income property&amp;amp;nbsp;as a premier asset class. He highlights updates to his&amp;amp;nbsp;Property Tracker&amp;amp;nbsp;software, which now integrates real-time&amp;amp;nbsp;inflation data&amp;amp;nbsp;and calculates suggested&amp;amp;nbsp;cash reserves&amp;amp;nbsp;to help investors manage risk. He critiques the reliability of official&amp;amp;nbsp;CPI figures, arguing that higher actual inflation creates significant wealth through&amp;amp;nbsp;inflation-induced debt destruction. Jason also shares a personal anecdote about shutting down his&amp;amp;nbsp;Bitcoin miners&amp;amp;nbsp;due to unprofitability, using the story to warn against&amp;amp;nbsp;over-diversification&amp;amp;nbsp;in unproven assets.  He then welcomes Lawrence Yun, the Chief Economist for the&amp;amp;nbsp;National Association of Realtors, as he provides a comprehensive update on the current state of the&amp;amp;nbsp;U.S. housing market. Yun highlights a significant &amp;quot;slump&amp;quot; in&amp;amp;nbsp;home sales volume&amp;amp;nbsp;over the last four years, even as&amp;amp;nbsp;property prices&amp;amp;nbsp;remain at record highs due to an estimated shortage of&amp;amp;nbsp;four million homes. The discussion covers how&amp;amp;nbsp;high mortgage rates&amp;amp;nbsp;and tax policies like&amp;amp;nbsp;capital gains&amp;amp;nbsp;are freezing inventory by discouraging homeowners from moving. Despite these challenges, Yun remains optimistic, citing&amp;amp;nbsp;strong job growth&amp;amp;nbsp;and potential&amp;amp;nbsp;interest rate cuts&amp;amp;nbsp;driven by future technological productivity as catalysts for a multi-year market recovery. He concludes th at the market is finally turning a corner, with&amp;amp;nbsp;pent-up demand&amp;amp;nbsp;likely to drive increased activity through 2026.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  PropertyTracker.com  http://empoweredinvestor.com/  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Key Takeaways:  Jason's editorial  0:00 Bitcoin miners and focusing on making money  9:34 Upgrades to PropertyTracker software  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Laurence Yun interview  20:48 Update on the housing market  26:19 Rising house prices and the coming equilibrium  32:39 Job market and housing demand  40:25 Kevin Warsh and the economy  44:03 Capital gains tax and housing supply  50:29 Housing demand  54:32 The new housing bill  57:30 Market forecast &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;_______________________________________________________________ &amp;amp;nbsp; Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM &amp;amp;amp; LINKEDIN  Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI  Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/  Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit:&amp;amp;nbsp;https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class: &amp;amp;nbsp;Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else:&amp;amp;nbsp;http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes &amp;amp;amp; Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course:&amp;amp;nbsp;https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing:  https://www.PandemicInvesting.com </description>
