213: The Great Urban Escape: Investing in the Suburban Cocooning Trend
About this episode
The episode discusses the shift in American migration patterns towards suburban living due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its implications for real estate investment.
Jason Hartman and investment counselor Evan discussing how the COVID-19 pandemic has fundamentally altered American migration patterns and consumer psychology. They highlight a significant "flee to the suburbs" as residents abandon dense urban centers like New York City in search of larger homes that facilitate "cocooning," remote work, and homeschooling. The conversation explores the decline of the traditional university model and the rise of home-centered industries, suggesting that these shifts create unique opportunities for real estate investors.
