  • How to Invest in Real Estate During a Recession (2025 Update) w/J Scott

    How to Invest in Real Estate During a Recession (2025 Update) w/J Scott
    May 9 2025
    A recession isn’t a time to panic—it’s a time to build wealth. If you’re listening to this podcast, you’re already multiple steps ahead of the masses that shift their mindset with every news story shouting from the rooftops that a crash, correction, or recession is coming. Savvy investors are sitting, waiting, knowing that if a recession does come, deals usually do, too. Want to build wealth during a recession instead of losing your head? J Scott, author of Recession-Proof Real Estate Investing, is here to show you how. J says there are three things every investor should be doing before a recession to be in the best position possible. If you follow these three, relatively simple, steps, you’ll be ready to buy deals at a steep discount while average Americans miss out on yet another opportunity to invest. This happened in 2008, and many modern investors regret not having the means to buy back then. Plus, J outlines the real estate deals that work best in a recession, whether you’re a buy-and-hold landlord or a flipper/renovator. Some homes have serious risks attached to them during downturns, while others offer wealth-preserving (and building) opportunities. Here’s how to invest in real estate if a 2025 recession hits. In This Episode We Cover The three things every investor must do to prepare for a recession Time to sell? Why offloading a poorly performing rental now could be a smart move What to do right now if you have rental properties (and want to keep your cash flow going!) The business “cycle” and why we may be at the “peak” before the fall Building your recession-proof strategy so you DON’T deviate from it when times get tough And So Much More!

    Data Says It’s a Buyer’s Market: Here’s Where the Most Opportunity Is w/Michael Zuber
    May 7 2025
    The buyer’s market is back, and opportunities are growing. Inventory is rising, demand is shrinking, and sellers are more motivated to give you a price cut, concession, or repair. This is the time investors have been waiting for, and much of the housing market is already on discount. But which areas are the deepest buyer’s markets, and how are we investing today to capitalize? BiggerPockets CEO Scott Trench and Michael Zuber from One Rental at a Time join the show to share about deals they recently bought to take advantage of 2025’s housing market conditions. Plus, we give away free data on the markets with the most buyer control. Buyer’s market conditions don’t show up often—and they won’t last long. Finally, we’re unveiling a brand new, free tool from BiggerPockets that makes it easier than ever to find cash-flowing real estate deals in your area—BiggerDeals! No more scrolling through hundreds of listings. You can see estimated cash flow, cap rate, cash-on-cash return numbers, and more with BiggerDeals! In This Episode We Cover: The free, easy way to find cash-flowing rental properties in your area How to take advantage of the growing “buyer’s market” and which areas buyers have the most control Two real deals Scott and Michael are investing in right now How to get massive discounts (and interest rate buydowns) on new construction homes The four factors that make up a buyer’s market and free data to see if your market is one And So Much More!

So much value!

I owe a lot to this podcast. I’ve been listening for years and I’ve applied countless things I’ve heard to my life and business.

The mindset that BiggerPockets has given me has brought so much value to my life, even beyond real estate.

Thank you, Josh, Brandon, David, and the rest of the BP team!

My favorite podcast!

I started listening to BP over a year ago and I still listen to every new episode. I started from the beginning and just couldn't stop going. Every episode just provided so much value and sent me looking for more to learn. It directed me to an amazing community too. Great content overall, can't be grateful enough for this

very valuable information.

This is a great podcast. Many people don't know about self directed IRA or solo 401k. I opened one this year, I like that I'm in control of my money and I can invest where I want it.
