In this episode of the BiggerPockets podcast, Ben Miller makes a compelling case for investing in real estate in 2025. He outlines four main points: first, current real estate prices are relatively low when compared to the historically high stock market valuations, creating a prime "buy low, sell high" opportunity. Second, there's an inverse relationship between real estate and stocks right now, making property an effective hedge against potential stock market dips. Third, while the multifamily market is currently facing oversupply, Miller believes this is only temporary and predicts a shift to undersupply by 2026, which will drive up rents and property values. Lastly, he warns that persistently high interest rates, possibly worsened by tariffs, will hinder new construction, enhancing the value of existing properties. In sum, Miller acknowledges that market timing is tricky, but he firmly believes the long-term fundamentals strongly favor real estate.
