After Trump announced a $200 billion injection into mortgage‑backed securities that is expected to shave 0.25‑0.5 percentage points off 30‑year rates, Graham explains how cheaper financing may temporarily boost buyer purchasing power but is likely to lift home prices as supply remains tight and affordability stays strained. He argues this “great housing reset” is prompting him to liquidate his rental portfolio and urges viewers to scrutinize any purchase, negotiate wisely, and recognize that the old playbook for real‑estate investing no longer applies.

.In this video Graham breaks down Donald Trump’s recent tweet promising to ban large institutional investors from buying single‑family homes, explaining why such a ban would likely shrink supply, raise prices, and repeat the failures of similar past legislation. He then argues that the true drivers of unaffordable housing are low interest rates, restrictive zoning, and excessive red‑tape, offering concrete reforms—like streamlined permitting, mortgage‑porting, and tax incentives for builders—to actually improve affordability.

He emphasizes dollar‑cost averaging, buying the dip, trimming hidden expenses (with a nod to Rocket Money), and maintaining patience and diversification to survive the expected choppy, lower‑return market ahead.

He outlines the new 80/20‑and‑hassle framework he now follows—embracing strategic spending, simplifying his life, and prioritizing projects that deliver the greatest return—while offering his personal blueprint for achieving balance and sustainable growth.

The creator reveals how they snagged the cheapest 2020 Tesla Model X in the nation—a six‑figure, one‑owner vehicle that fell from over $100,000 new to a net out‑of‑pocket cost of $14,490 thanks to massive depreciation, a 6,000‑lb Section 179 tax write‑off, and a private‑party sale in Las Vegas. They argue that, with EV values plummeting, rapid tech upgrades, and generous tax incentives, buying a slightly used Tesla now offers near‑new performance at 50‑60 % off MSRP and is a smarter financial move than purchasing a brand‑new model.
