442 | Why Are Investors Pulling Back—And Should You?

April 07, 2025 • Gregg Cohen / Pablo Gonzalez • Season 2 • Episode 442

Investor behavior is shifting—but the real story is hiding in the data.

Redfin just reported that investor home purchases dropped 10.5% in Q4 2024—and it’s even worse in parts of Florida!

Sounds like bad news for real estate, right?

Not so fast.

There’s been a lot of noise lately about investors pulling back from real estate…

But what if that headline is missing the point?

That’s why we’re digging into the numbers on this week’s episode of the Not Your Average Investor Show to show you what’s really happening—and where the opportunity still lives.

Join Gregg Cohen, co-founder of JWB Real Estate Capital, and show host, Pablo Gonzalez, as they explore:

- What Q1 trends reveal about the current market—and investor sentiment
- Why purchasing power is stronger than the headlines suggest
- How the apartment oversupply is impacting rent dynamics (and where single-family fits in)
- What rent growth is expected to look like in the next few years—and why that matters for long-term investors

Plus—a milestone moment for JWB you won’t want to miss. Let’s just say it proves that consistent success doesn’t happen by accident.

This episode is your chance to cut through the noise and see the bigger picture—so you can make better moves for your portfolio.

Don’t let fear-based headlines make your investment decisions.
