In this episode, Mark J. Kohler sits down with Kathy Fettke, co-founder of RealWealth and host of The Real Wealth Show, to talk about what smart investors should actually be watching in today’s market.

They break down the proposed restrictions on institutional homebuyers, why reacting to headlines can leave investors behind, and the key indicator RealWealth looks for before entering a market: job growth.

Kathy also shares how her team identified opportunity in Sherman, Texas, why the housing challenge is increasingly about renters, and how investors should think differently about active versus passive real estate.

Key takeaways from this episode:
Why fear in the market almost always means better deals are available
- The truth behind the new bill capping institutional home purchases and why it's more political than practical
- Why relying on headlines (or AI summaries) means you're investing on old, already-priced-in data
- RealWealth's #1 rule for picking a market: follow the jobs
- How Kathy's team spotted the CHIPS Act opportunity in Sherman, TX before anyone else moved
- Why the real housing shortage today is a renter problem, not a buyer problem
- The difference between active real estate (flipping) and passive real estate (buy-and-hold) — and why confusing the two costs people money
- Why managing your property manager beats trying to manage the property yourself

Kathy also shares how to get started with RealWealth's free resources, including property tours, weekly market webinars, and her book Retire Rich with Rentals. This episode is a must-watch for anyone who's been sitting on the sidelines waiting for the "right time" to invest or who's been burned trying to time the market off the news cycle.
