Insured & Secured: Navigating Real Estate Insurance Claims w/ Terri Wright
First and foremost, thank you so much for watching my podcast! I have to apologize as the audio is not very good as we had some technical issues with our microphones. I ended up deciding to post this as the information that Terri provided is just far too valuable not to post. I hope you can look beyond the less than perfect audio, and benefit from the incredible insights Terri provided. Enjoy!
Terri Wright is a retired insurance agent of 18 years in Maine. She very generously talked to me about all aspects of insurance. There are so many nuggets of information in here I can’t wait for you to hear it.

    I retired, as a finish carpenter at 61 yrs old, to renovate our fixer upper, 18 months later, it’s nearly perfect, and worth about 150k more. Now I’m bored!

      I am so glad to hear your fixer upper was a success and congratulations on your retirement! Since you are bored maybe its time for a next fixer upper or maybe some finish carpentry work. Where are you located?

    Better to live within your own means. It is much better to never, borrow money from a bank, especially leveraging your house, with the possibility of becoming homeless as a result, of getting a home equity something. It is only good, to use credit cards to get the cash back, not to borrow money you don't already have, in the bank. That way you use the bank, and the bank does not use you. There are rare circumstances when borrowing may be your only reasonable option, but usually never. Borrowing very usually bad, the most reckless option.

      You are correct, no one should borrow money they cannot afford to pay back. A home equity line of credit is a lower interest rate option than a cash advance on a credit card. It is good to have options so people can make the right decision for themselves.

    This advice is about 5 years too late. Rates and home prices are now too high for mortgage payments on the average home to have any chance of being lower than comparable rents in 90+% of the country, and the average home now requires *over double the median household income* to even qualify for a mortgage on. Only the upper quartile of income earners are even buying homes as a primary residence; the rest are investors buying homes as rental properties, and financial firms buying them for speculative purposes or as a hedge against inflation. The market remains hot with price corrections in overbought markets being staved off only by supply conditions being so tight that a even a much smaller pool of buyers are still climbing over each other to continue to bid prices up on the slow trickle of eligible properties hitting the MLS. Supply can't catch up in terms of demographic turnover because the retirement generation, rather than downsizing to condos, apartments, or smaller homes in adherence with previous generational trends, are not selling due to the fact that a majority of their net worth is tied up in the form of their overinflated homes while their fixed incomes have been rendered insufficient to support a desirable lifestyle due to monetary and price inflation throughout the rest of the economy, making them all want to subsist on escalating HELOC borrowing to cover their retirement spending while hoping that their home's value continues to rise to offset the borrowing. Supply can't catch up from a production standpoint because hyper-restrictive zoning laws, building codes, and inefficient bureaucracy, in combination with monetary inflation's effects on the costs of labor and building materials conspire to prevent the creation of new affordable high density housing where it's most needed, and have also shunted most of the investment in new construction homes for the past several years to crowd around overbought major metro markets in hopes of maximizing RoE, causing bubbles in these markets that have now begun to burst leaving large swathes of inventory unsold and unoccupied yet wildly overpriced relative to the local market and doing nothing to help first time home buyers.

    Why would you want to though? Stock market grows at avg 10% while real estate grows avg of less than 5%

    • @KellyWalker-x9k

      For several reasons. Here are a few. Real estate is a tangible asset that some consider more secure than stocks which can be volatile. I know many investors who have enjoyed significantly larger returns on their real estate investments than the projected 10% you mentioned for the stock market, myself included. Some investors feel more in control of their investments as with good property management and improvements to their property they can affect the value of the property whereas they have no control over the stock market. There is cash flow involved from rents that provides regular income whereas stocks often only yield dividends periodically. There are tax benefits and investing in real estate can be an inflation hedge. Investing in real estate can also be a way to diversify your portfolio.

      @@KellyWalker-x9k Sorry I disagree with your premise on multiple levels. You said real estate investment, not real estate investment and improvement. That is much different. Now your investing even more money and more importantly time, to add value to your original investment. Something that is no longer apples to apples to a stock market investment. Secondly, you mention cash flow involved with rents that provide regular income. I would argue those rents are not realized profit until said original investment plus any improvement costs are accounted for and the rent is applied to those cost and you overcome the amount you put in. Saying your making money on something that you just put 100's of thousands of dollars into in disingenuous. Doing it this way means the profit is usually only realized when a sale happens. And that sale as I said earlier, is typically only a 5% gain per year (this is a fact by the way). Investing in the markets as a whole will render you 10% on average (also facts).
