which means prices are going to pull back. If you are an end user, looking to finally enter the housing market now is a great time to buy a house 15%-20% cheaper than it would have been at the beginning of the year.”
That’s transparent and clear advice from one of the brightest and most outspoken minds in the world of real estate. Cardone doesn’t hoard advice, tips or tricks to getting rich. He is a best-selling author and has shared his 10X strategy on several different platforms. Whether you’re reading his books or watching his videos, he’s dropping knowledge.
In this instance he has a perspective about decisions made by the fed and its Chairman Jerome Powell, that echo Tesla Inc. founder Elon Musk and National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) President Jerry Howard. Musk believes that a recession is inevitable, and Howard pointed to historical data to claim that housing has led us into and out of every recession.
Cardone shared another gem with Benzinga, stating that “if you are an investor with cash, you are going to be able to scoop up tons of inventory because the end user homeowner who needs a mortgage will be squeezed out of the housing market. They will be unable to buy the house even at a lower price because interest rates doubled.”
It makes sense that Cardone is so bullish on the real estate market. Today’s trends may mirror what happened after 2008, and, looking back, many may be kicking themselves for not buying when they had the chance.
Making real estate especially enticing is the volatility of the stock market. Even the major players have ridden a rollercoaster over the past 18+ months. In June, Amazon.com Inc. split, seeing its stock soar $20 per share over the split price and back down again. Perhaps Jeff Bezos foresaw the volatility ahead of time, and that’s what led him to the Arrived Homes endeavor – allowing people to buy shares of single-family rental properties.
Experts like Jim Cramer are having a difficult time predicting long-term winners and have been changing course regularly. Even the biggest, most powerful names in the stock market are associated with serious risk and require perfect timing.
Perfect timing is something that Cardone says is happening now in the real estate market. “I believe we are entering the BEST real estate market opportunity since 2008.” That might be great news for investors, but what about typical buyers looking to live in their home? It doesn’t look good, according to Cardone. “We will look back and realize that 2022 was the year the Fed created the biggest renter boom in America’s history and their decisions alone was the final death blow of individuals’ chance of home ownership.” Powerful sentiment like this indicates that it may be time to invest in real estate, one way or another.
Sure there are options like real estate investment trusts (REITs) that specialize in residential real estate and crowdsourced platforms like Cardone’s own Cardone Capital. But, it seems as though the most advantageous opportunity is as an individual operation. How could you get started? Cardone has you covered.
Cardone shared specific things to target. “You should look for people who, late last year or early this year, were hoping to make a quick flip….and had an adjustable loan. They are waking up without a market to sell into and a payment on their loan that is doubling. Also look for institutions who have already written much of their portfolios down and will bring a lot of product/inventory to the market in the last quarter of this year.”

Warning: spoilers ahead for Episode 5 of House of the Dragon. Viewers were getting red wedding flashbacks during House of the Dragon Episode 5 titled "We Light the Way" Sunday night, when the royal wedding between Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and Lord Corlys Velaryon's son and heir, Ser Laenor Velaryon, ended in a gruesome affair. It had been decided that Rhaenyra would wed Ser Laenor to join the two most powerful houses: House Targaryen and House Velaryon. While King Viserys ironed out the details with Lord Corlys and Princess Rhaenys, Laenor and Rhaenyra took a walk on the beach, where they came to an agreement that they would perform their political duties as man and wife, but their marriage would remain open to their separate tastes. In case you missed it, in the previous episode, Rhaenyra took to bed Ser Criston Cole. Meanwhile, we found out Ser Laenor is gay and his secret lover is a knight, Ser Joffrey Lonmouth. Jumping ahead to the pre-royal-wedding dinner, however, the night already took a dramatic turn as soon as Viserys's brother Daemon showed up to sit at the head table, followed by Queen Alicent Hightower, who showed up in an emerald green gown, the color of House Hightower when its beacon declares war. It is when the guests are dancing, that Laenor's secret lover Joffrey approaches Rhaenyra's secret lover Criston and threatens him with blackmail, that triggers Ser Criston into ultimately beating him to a pulp and to the point of his face being completely mangled. Weddings in Westeros are very rarely nonviolent. It's almost expected at this point, which is why some viewers were triggered before anything even went down. And even though Ser Criston's meltdown didn't end with nearly as high of a body count as the Game of Thrones red wedding, it was still shocking and jaw-dropping, and fans loved it. Even more savage, despite Laenor's secret lover being brutally murdered, the wedding to join House Targaryen and House Velaryon still took place, while Ser Laenor weeped through the entire ceremony. And at the very end of the episode, Viserys passes out, leaving his fate in question as we head into Episode 6 and its big jump forward in time, introducing new actresses Emma D'Arcy as Rhaenyra and Olivia Cooke as Alicent.
We sure hope Heaven finds her forever home soon.
