Episode #766 Two real estate markets still look like they’ve got room to grow in 2023, even as home prices face downward pressure for high mortgage rates and days on market begin to creep up. Markets like these two exploded in 2020-2022 and are still seeing strong demographic signs that more growth could be on the way. But, as two markets that have witnessed some of the most dramatic price appreciation in history, is now a worthwhile time to invest? In this episode, we’re doing a market deep dive into two hot housing markets, Tampa, Florida, and Dallas, Texas. These two metro areas saw population booms like never before, shooting their home prices high and keeping competition hot, even as rates rise. But are these two markets starting to see a slowdown in 2023, or are there surefire signs that another wave of buyer activity is about to take place? With so many Americans moving to Texas and Florida, could this be the appreciation play of a lifetime? We’re joined by Kim Meredith-Hampton and Victor Steffen, realtors in the Tampa and Dallas areas, respectively, to talk with David Greene and Dave Meyer about the potential of these two property markets. They’ll touch on how to find cash flow even with high home prices, the strategies they’re using today to lock in wealth-building buys for their clients, and why the days of bidding wars and buyer ferocity may be far from over. ~~~~ Join BiggerPockets for FREE 👇 https://www.biggerpockets.com/signup?utm_source=owned_media ~~~~ Expand Your Investing Knowledge With the BiggerPockets Books: https://store.biggerpockets.com/?utm_source=owned_media ~~~~ Find an Investor-Friendly Agent in Your Area: http://biggerpockets.com/agentmatch ~~~~ Find Investor-Friendly Lenders: http://biggerpockets.com/lendermatch ~~~~ Hear Dave on the “On the Market” Podcast: https://www.biggerpockets.com/podcasts/on-the-market?utm_source=owned_media ~~~~ Subscribe to the “On The Market” YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxDXuLvtjJ9Est8PrG3i2VA ~~~~ Catch Up on The BiggerPockets Blog Articles: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Check Out Dave’s Dallas and Tampa Articles: Dallas: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/dallas-real-estate-market?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none Tampa: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/tampa-real-estate-market?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Grab Dave’s New Book, “Real Estate by the Numbers”: https://store.biggerpockets.com/products/real-estate-by-the-numbers?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Connect with Kim: BiggerPockets: https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/kimhampton?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none Email: kim@hamptonandhampton.com ~~~~ Connect with Victor: BiggerPockets: https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/victorsteffen?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none Website: https://victorsteffen.com/ ~~~~ Connect with Dave and David on BiggerPockets: Dave: https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/davem27?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none David: https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/davidgreene24?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Follow Dave, David, and BiggerPockets on Instagram: Dave: @thedatadeli or https://www.instagram.com/thedatadeli/ David: @davidgreene24 or https://www.instagram.com/davidgreene24/ BiggerPockets: @biggerpockets or https://www.instagram.com/biggerpockets/ Show notes at: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-766?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none 00:00 Intro 02:07 Quick Tip 03:27 Welcome Kim and Victor! 06:49 Tampa's Sunny Seller's Market 13:49 Dallas' Strong Market Metrics 24:44 Can You Still Find Cash Flow in Florida? 36:13 The Texas "BEAF" Strategy 48:10 Start Investing in These Markets! 49:16 Connect with Kim and Victor!
