    Should you buy as much house as you can? In this week’s episode, we explore the best practices for buyers and their budgets. Step one a buyer needs to get pre-approved for a loan first.

Listen as we detail all the additional expenses when owning a home like a supplemental tax bill.

  • The Real Story with Adam and Sherry - Episode 25 – Rent Control, Investors, & the Future of Housing: The Prop 33 Debate
    2024/09/26

    The Real Story with Adam and Sherry - Episode 25 – Rent Control, Investors, & the Future of Housing: The Prop 33 Debate

    We begin today’s podcast by discussing our real estate market by the numbers offering an in-depth analysis of the Bay Area real estate market. In this episode we dive deep on Prop 33 which is the latest effort of the state to change rules for rent control that were based on Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act of 1995. To potentially combat the housing shortage, Prop 33 is being introduced again. However, many investors might be discouraged or disincentivized from investing in rental real estate or building new rental real estate due to these enhanced restrictions. What drives up rental prices in the first place? Is it greedy property owners? How will Prop 33 affect the rental market? Listen as we tip our hand on what we think of this new proposition.
