ABOUT THE EPISODE

This episode is your quick masterclass in understanding market dynamics and the socio-economic forces that shape housing landscapes.

Through personal anecdotes and historical reflections, we explore how past patterns can illuminate present trends and potentially forecast future downturns.

Join me as we unravel a century’s worth of lessons from Florida’s real estate history, beginning with the 1920s frenzy that might have set the stage for the Great Depression and other important factors that shaped the Sunshine State’s market over the years.

Inspired by Christopher Knowlton’s book, Bubble in the Sun, we dissect the cyclical nature of this vibrant market, reflecting on personal experiences and observations from cities like Tampa, Orlando, and Miami.

With stories of investments in Miami’s Brickell and Edgewater areas, we discuss the effects of the 40-year recertification requirements following the Surfside collapse on property values, providing a rich perspective on the evolving intricacies of Florida real estate and why history is still a vital teacher.

Tune in to understand how these market cycles impact not just real estate but the broader socio-economic environment for residents and investors alike.

At First Lien Capital, we believe in the power of investing that matters, where profits meet purpose. This year, through our partnership with H.O.M.E.S.
