Shownotes Transcript

The US dollar could be ousted as the world’s reserve currency as more and more countries move away from using a dollar-backed standard for trade. This could lead to an economic domino effect causing more inflation and a difficult domestic economy. But what will this do to the housing market? How will investors be affected, and will this global move put downward pressure on the US economy?

Welcome back to another Seeing Greene where your “this is just my opinion” host, David Greene, shares his take on economics, lending, investing, and where to find cash flow in 2023. This time around, David touches on topics like flipping vs. BRRRRing and which makes more sense with high mortgage rates, why using a HELOC to invest in real estate could be risky, what to do when your rental won’t cash flow, and how to turn a troublesome rental into a fully-occupied cash cow.
