Podcast episode (Creating Wealth, ep. 1,578) hosted by Jason Hartman (Oct 22, 2020). Main themes: decline in senior housing occupancy during COVID and a concurrent rise in demand for workforce/entry-level housing; skepticism about official inflation measures and rapid home sales/low days-on-market in 2020; critique of higher-education costs and student-housing risks; promotion of garden-style multifamily and single-family rental investments as pandemic-resistant. Interview segment with team member Adam focuses on Memphis: the Memphis 3.0 plan (approved 2019) favors "build up not out," rising investor (non-owner) loan activity in 2010–2017, and a specific renovated Memphis single-family deal with financial metrics (price, rent, DCR, cap rate, cash-on-cash, projected ROI). Episode closes with event promotion (pandemicinvesting.com) and referrals for lenders.
