Home prices are still soaring as they hit a new record high, despite high mortgage rates and low inventory dampening demand. At some point, this unaffordable housing market must make Americans even a bit bearish on real estate, right? Well, maybe not, according to a new survey that shows what Americans view as the best investment in the long term. But these updates are just the tip of the iceberg on today’s headlines show!

We’re back to discuss the housing market’s most hard-hitting headlines and share our opinions on whether they’re fact, fiction, or pure hype. First, Americans give their take on the best long-term investment, and one asset in particular reigns supreme (sorry, it’s not crypto!). Next, will record-breaking home prices push demand down even further, forcing house flippers and home sellers to get desperate? Our experts share exactly what they’re seeing in their local markets.

Speaking of home sellers, are you selling right now? If so, there are five things you CAN control that’ll help you sell your home faster and for more, even in today’s tough housing market. Expert house flipper James Dainard gives even more tips on how he gets his flips sold at lightning speed, even during slow seasons. Finally, we touch on Airbnb’s latest party-pooping and how they’re putting hosts in the driver’s seat to protect their properties from ragers that could ruin their homes. Plus, an update on the end of endless shrimp (check out this episode for context).
