In this foundations episode on real estate investing, the speaker explains primary, secondary, and tertiary markets and how they relate to finding rental properties, giving examples such as Dallas, Seattle, Los Angeles, and New York as primary markets; Memphis, Birmingham, Kansas City, and Indianapolis as secondary; and Waco and Yakima as tertiary, with even smaller towns below that. They prefer secondary markets because primary markets attract heavy competition and many unsophisticated investors who buy for appreciation rather than cash flow, which the speaker views as essential. They stress choosing secondary markets with robust economies (Kansas City as a good example, Detroit as a bad one) and caution that late-cycle conditions in 2016 make tertiary markets riskier in a correction. The episode also breaks down A, B, C, and D/F property and neighborhood classes, cash flow trade-offs, and the importance of discounting broker opinions.
