We're thrilled to have Adam Gower ( @GowerCrowd ) on board for today's episode. Gower, the brains behind GowerCrowd.com, is no stranger to the world of syndicate and crowdfunding investing. Bringing a wealth of experience from his time managing a staggering $7 billion portfolio of non-performing loans at Colony Capital, he delves into the perplexing single-family home market in California. In a world of high-interest rates and market volatility, the Golden State continues to uphold its high prices, leaving homeowners afraid to sell.

Continuing the conversation, we pry into the varying strategies of the fix and flip investors as compared to the buy and hold investors. How are they leaving their imprints on the current housing market? Let's dissect the puzzling equation of low inventory and high prices. With the housing market seemingly frozen, according to Mohammed L Arian, we ponder the influence of the Fed's actions and the imminent shifts that could be triggered by investors deciding to make their exit.

Finally, we turn our focus to the opportunities that lie in real estate investment for accredited investors. What does it mean to be an accredited investor as per the SEC's standards and why understanding the market and having a clear investment thesis are paramount before jumping into the arena? We also expose the implications of financing on multifamily real estate, especially the assumptions nestled in the underwriting process that could potentially lead to cash flow problems and the downfall of property values. Gower passionately shares how this challenging scenario could pave the way for new opportunities and gives us a sneak peek into his upcoming book, 'Capital Calls and Rescue Capital'. An episode brimming with valuable insights and tips for everyone, from the real estate rookies to the seasoned investors.
