Transcript
- 0:00I think there's a lot of confusion right now in the safes that folks really
- 0:03don't. Rates went up in prices a specific down. We have a really
- 0:07seen that. And our level here in the New England area, well,
- 0:10what you're starting to see is the mind is temporary of a little bit.
- 0:15So we're really in that in that situation where the market's a little confused.
- 0:19Normally you see prices plummet, they have it, and normally you see buyer
- 0:22demand plumb it has it. So it's it's really just kind of a stalemate
- 0:25that we've seen the last few years. You're listening to Carrie Let's's Financial Survival

- 1:02Well, you're gonna want to hear from this person if you have any
- 1:04interest in real estate and hard asset investing, any of that. This person
- 1:11was designated as the Wall Street Journal's number one realtor nationwide. His name is
- 1:19Kyle Sievith. Kyle, it is great to have you on the show.
- 1:23Hey, how did the Wall Street Journal love figure out that you're the number
- 1:27one real turn So this was done. It was in twenty nineteen, and
- 1:32it was done via transaction side. So in twenty nineteen, I did the
- 1:36most transaction sides in the Higher Country and the beauty of that was, you
- 1:41know, one person, I know every single one of my clients, and
- 1:45yeah, it worked out well. All right? So was that mostly commercial
- 1:51or residential or a bit? So when you say transaction side, that just
- 1:55means whether it's one unit or fifty units, that's one side. So that's
- 2:00only one side, right, Okay, So, hey, what's your take
- 2:04on the real estate market now? As well as we got an expert and
- 2:07obvious expert on the line here. Yeah, I mean, I think the
- 2:10real estate market is very confused. I think there's a lot of confusion right
- 2:14now in the sense that folks really don't rates went up in prices are specific
- 2:19down. We haven't really seen that. And our level here in the New
- 2:22England area well, what you're starting to see is the may of this is
- 2:25temporary of a little bit. So we're really in that in that situation where
- 2:30the market's a little confused. Only you see prices plummet they have it,
- 2:34and only you see buyer demand plumb it has it. So it's it's really
- 2:38just kind of a stalemate that we've seen the last few years and rates.
- 2:42Everybody's talking about rates set a reserve we got you know, PPI number comes
- 2:47out today a little bit over what they would have liked. How big a
- 2:53factor is rates in this market now? If they were to cut rates,
- 2:57say by a third of where they're at now, would that result in a
- 3:01huge push for the market or would it be greedy with indifference sy that again,
- 3:08I'm saying, if the Federal Reserve were to start ratcheting rates back,
- 3:14cutting rate and do you start seeing the raids ky, you're going to see
- 3:17a massive influx of uyres back into this market. It will be insanity.
- 3:23It'll be insanity. I think if you do see that, they expect that
- 3:28demand goes through the rule because people we stand you're going to miss out again
- 3:32on any sort of interest rates spite that you're going to see hat okay,
- 3:37And I mean, I know we've got a lot of other things to talk
- 3:39about, but I think the market review for somebody boots on the ground is
- 3:44really important because many of you out there don't have any idea what's really happening.
- 3:50But we still see like in certain states markets like Florida, the raid
- 3:57ikes haven't seemed to do much other than to cut back on supply. It
- 4:01because you've got all these people with three percent mortgages who'd love to you,
- 4:05you know, to move, but are like locked into their properties. Now
- 4:11all right, correct, I mean I did. You've got again a lot
- 4:14of people that are they have those super low interest rates that they had for
- 4:18the last few years, and they don't want to go out of those rates
- 4:20and you know, lose that rate and against some higher But at the end
- 4:24of the day, it's up if it's a rule you need for your family,
- 4:27or if it's a wogle you need for your well being or so on
- 4:30and so forth, it's it's definitely something that you should not let interest rates
- 4:33become the be on end all. I think it's importing that buyers understand and
- 4:38seller to understand you can always refinance down the road, and at the end
- 4:43of the day, you can always refight us down the road. That allows
- 4:46you to, you know, decrease your rates or rates come down as payment
- 4:49and the money makes sense. Now it's only going to make more sense down
- 4:53our own right, So hopefully rates will accommodate that that strategy. I guess
- 5:00you never really know. Hey, so your keys to success? Basically,
- 5:05I'm reading here it says that seven ninety percent of your decisions you don't have
- 5:12to make anymore. How did you pull that one off? Yeah? I
- 5:15mean I delegated at a lot of the past things that come across my desk
- 5:20on a day in the day out basis, And I think, what that's
- 5:25not that it's allowed me to just actually just make decisions versus having to hit
- 5:30in the weeds and be involved in all on my new shut and I think
- 5:33that's been very helpful. So I think that that's one of the things.
- 5:38Is really delegating anything that's not being comproducing has been more of the keys to
- 5:44my success. Yeah, that does make a lot of sense, And many
- 5:46successful people have told me similar things, because you can't do everything yourself,
- 5:53and if you try, then you wind up missing opportunities because you're too busy
- 5:59handle the day to day, nine to five stuff, correct, exactly.
- 6:02I think that's the part where that separates not only a leader, but a
- 6:06successful person. You know, a successful person out starting wow, the will
- 6:10prom a person that's not as successful. Right. So, somebody looking to
- 6:15get into real estate, now, would you tell them forget it and put
- 6:18it it's too dangerous or do you take the plunge? I would tell them
- 6:24that it's important that we understand why they're looking to get into real estate,
- 6:28and with that right, have a good have a good understanding of what's important
- 6:32to you and what is the purpose and what's your why? But I think
- 6:35that's the most important, right. And so obviously commercial real estate office buildings
- 6:45in a state of period apparently terminal decline. How do you see that market
- 6:50being able to be turned around at some point or is it past the point
- 6:54in no return? I think commercial real estate, depending on what segment of
- 6:58commercial is, is certainly something that's been you know, impacted, specifically office,
- 7:04and I think they are right now. We're at such a housing crisis
- 7:08that I think the moves or the wards residential in all those commercial spaces,
- 7:14I think is important. I think that's what you're starting to see. These
- 7:16are starting seatboats that are that are converting a lot of these commercial buildings need
- 7:23to residents well, like in New York City, the older buildings and in
- 7:28the Northeast Ire ad Venture, to say, the older buildings lended that lended
- 7:31themselves to conversions because the proportions, et cetera just made conversion very easy.
- 7:41Like in Manhattan's Financial District those buildings as they weren't ultra large inside. But
- 7:47these modern office buildings have you know, one hundred and twenty thousand square foot
- 7:55floors with not a lot of windows, a lot of it's in the close
- 7:59to the core or it doesn't really lend itself to conversion so much doesn't.
- 8:03No, it does, and so there's only certain buildings and certain locations that
- 8:07would lend to that. And I think that's another important factor there that some
- 8:11of these buildings that the secondary tertiary use is going to become very interesting and
- 8:18go qual it. Yeah, I was just wondering if you had any insight
- 8:22into other potential uses because it's it's like nobody knows what to do with them.
- 8:28Do you just knock them down? They caut billions to put up.
- 8:35I think other uses would be really you know, you kind of got to
- 8:41look at it almost making like an AIRB and B office type slash workspace where
- 8:48people can rank out smaller office versus having monster offices, right, so you
- 8:52almost consolidate. That's one option. Another option, you know where where oh
- 9:00story. I mean, there's just there's not a ton to do with these
- 9:01things besides you know, possibly, like you said, knock them down.
- 9:05Hey, And that leads to the next question of like malls. You know,
- 9:11there's a contraction in the mall space. There's that mall outside of the
- 9:15New York City in New Jersey. I think it was like going to be
- 9:18the largest one in the country. And they're also in a state of terminal
- 9:24decline and there's really nothing to do, no way to repurpose those structures more
- 9:31or less, they got to be raised and the property used for another application.
- 9:37Yeah, I mean, I think mall we're seeing it here in the
- 9:39Northeast as well. I mean they were built and you know, during the
- 9:41nineties and early two thousands they were at the hot topic. But right now
- 9:46these malls are again when I'm trying to see is converting to residential, or
- 9:50converging into elderly housing, or converging to some sort of housing that I think
- 9:54makes sense. Yeah. Yeah, Well, let's you see these ghost malls
- 9:58around the country, and the high end ones are doing doing better. I
- 10:05wouldn't say they're doing right, but they're sustaining, and the outlet balls seem
- 10:11to be doing okay. But everything in the middle, even in Florida here
- 10:15is getting crushed. Yeah. I mean, that's that's pretty more you done.
- 10:18You really have definitely started to really build that spread, you know,
- 10:24the high to the lower ring and then the middle class or the middle the
- 10:28middle part of the which the word I'm looking for. The middle part of
- 10:33the retail space has really been flobbered by Amazon. I mean you don't really
- 10:39have that same touching that that's not needed anyway, Yeah, Amazon and every
- 10:43other online retay right right. Yeah, So so there's a realignment taking place.
- 10:50But when it comes to residential, basically you might move from city to
- 10:56city. Certain cities might be declining, but others were expanding. So that's
- 11:03really where the real estate business is going to be out for the foreseeable future.
- 11:05Definitely, for sure. So you mentioned housing shortage. How acute is
- 11:11it? How bad is really? But it's pretty significant. It's pretty significant.
- 11:18And I think what you're seeing is reds are going through the little it's
- 11:22it's unless you have right control underway. Uh, They're just there's significant reaches
- 11:28the reds. And I think what's happening there is uh, you know,
- 11:33you need to so you need to have more supply. And the mad is
- 11:35there supply, this isn't there. So it's just a function of how many
- 11:41new builds or how how much saturation there is potential for in the future.
- 11:46And I think that's important that you know, we figured that out, you
- 11:50know, as a as a country, especially in New England Northeast where there's
- 11:54a lot of density, we definitely have a significant problem. All right,
- 12:00Well, hey, so just some advice for someone getting into real estate again,
- 12:05just your top three things that you should do when you're looking at a
- 12:09deal, whether or not to go or not. The advice I would give
- 12:13folks for real estate if you're looking at a deal and you're looking at making
- 12:18a you know, making a deal or or making something happen, I think
- 12:20you just got to always look at the market, is at the tile of
- 12:24deal where you think it'll be in six to twelve months, like there's potential
- 12:26or any short of death contern then you've got a factor in a clintingency point.
- 12:31I think that's the biggest fact, the biggest back of that. I'm
- 12:33seeing that people need to pay attention. So is it ten percent dout the
- 12:37twenty percent out? What's that number that has to make sense? Right?
- 12:41Okay, Hey, what timeframe you think people should be looking more short term
- 12:46intermediate than longer term now? Or do you look longer term to kind of
- 12:52like mitigate got it? Sterm play all right now? And you've got to
- 12:56definitely be a long term player. I think you've got to look at things
- 12:58and say, we're at the top of the cycle. So I during this
- 13:01little short term I think instead natively impact you. So you've got to be
- 13:07long term by hold, and you've got to be able to sustain it.
- 13:09Hey, what's your favorite geographical region within the country? Now? I love
- 13:15the South. I love Florida area. I just like the weather, and
- 13:18I think that's how it makes you happy when it's sunny. So I like
- 13:22the beating of the silence. So yeah, it's not sunny, right,
- 13:24now at least where I am in Palm Beach County, but that could change
- 13:28in a minute, so we're not worry dat right right, all right?
