I see that Berkshire Hathaway is now providing brokerage services in most
major markets. This video is based on REIT’s and strategies that most real
estate investors will never reach. But the fact that Berkshire has entered
the real estate market is a good sign!
I guess you would have invest in a loan and hope it will pay in the end.

3rd richest person in America speaking
75 billion to invest…
I would like to learn each and every single tip of real estate. So that I
may enhance my skills about real estate. Thanks for sharing this useful
video with us. I liked it to see 3rd most richest person of the world.
Hi there thank you so much this video. I’m just getting devoted to real
estate investment and am getting every piece of information and insights
I’m able to get regarding this subject matter. So whatever insights I am
able to get from your video clips is very appreciated. Keep up the great
work – eager for viewing the rest of your video clips in the future.
I love the point about “silly valuations… by people that don’t really
understand what its like to own one (a real estate company).” It underlines
for me that not all property is created equal. The qualitative analysis of
a real estate portfolio in this case is more important that the
quantitative one. Its risky to aggregate and act like its all the same when
each individual unit you’re considering is a large portion of the pie, and
each one is different.This idea is supported by the fact that real estate
hedge funds specialize; it helps them to lower risk, transactional costs,
and facilitate consistency. I think that is why many investors shy away
from real estate: the learning curve, and the TIME. It is a barrier to
entry that can be profitable if surmounted, and its resources like this
that help me do it!
great info in this video for those who know
I actually have truly enjoyed watching your video about real estate
property.I just started in real estate and found your insights to be very
helpful. I look forward to watching much more of your videos. Is it safe to
ask just how long you have been in this industry?
WHAT AN ANNOYING VOICE
The Man, The legend!
Buffett doesn’t care whether something is large-cap, small-cap, micro-cap,
or whatever. What is more important is whether it is a good business and
whether he can understand it. On balance, large cap businesses have done
much better recently than anyone would have ever dreamed of. This has led
to much higher valuations. Whether this is a permanent development is
another question.
There has been enormous securitizations of debt in the real estate
industry. It has been a bad idea to own real estate through a corporate
structure because there is a double taxation problem. REITS have somewhat
solved this problem, but it is still usually better to own the real estate
yourself rather than to invest through a third party intermediary that is
going to take a slice of the cake.
There are a lot of silly valuations placed on real estate companies by
people who don’t understand the business whatsoever. They just don’t
understand how illiquid property like this really is, so you can’t value it
like you would a liquid stock. But Buffett and Munger understand real
estate and would be open to opportunities that might present themselves.

I agree with you that Buffet is good and you are very modest.
I think
maybe my point can be taken too rash though. To me, either no one is as
good as you think they are or in fact you can be as good as them given
enough time, work and study. Cheers back at you!
Understanding the business is something that many investors fail. We can
learn a lot about business and investing by listening to Warren Buffett.
The only ways the Fed can slow inflation is to raise reserve requirements,
increase discount rates or sell their govt bonds, but they know they cant
do it, because the rates will spike. They’ve been buying 80-90% of the long
term bonds. They are the only market. There’s no one to sell to. That is
why recently they said they may hold the bonds till maturity. As for the
SEC thing, I’ll post a link on my blog’s latest post, because I can’t link
it here on youtube.
i’ve corrected him. Please google “silvernjin blogspot buffett” and click
on the top few links to see my research. Thanks.
Warren Buffett’s dad was an Austrian Economics follower. He tried to get
people from the Austrian school to teach his son, but apparently his son
refused to accept it.
My second “point” was an observation. I do not think that the current bond
rate is sustainable and I think there are more efficient ways to slow the
increase in inflation. And your comment on the SEC, please unveil the
monster lurking in the shadows. I would like to see him. (actually see him,
not here about him)
What do you suppose the correct path of action would have been? Let them
fail? Let the American people fall into a state of uncertainty on any
financial matter? The people who usually fall in this category call
themselves “Anarco-capitalist”. If you fall in this category, read Adam
Smith’s (father of capitalism) book “The Wealth of Nations”. If this
doesn’t do it for you, read on Keynesian economics (commonly adapted by
Columbia economist, which Warren Buffet is). Don’t assume truth is known.
Yes Warren Buffett is not only very financially literate, but also is very
modest in his actions.
Hi, from what I wrote I can see why you’d presume that about me. In reality
I’m a very intelligent person (and modest as you can see…. 😛 ) and
never blindly follow people. However, that said, there are several people
that I can objectively say are geniuses in a niche area. Even if I had
never seen Buffett’s fantastic ROI I could tell that his mentality and
thought process is one that, given a long time frame, will result in
excellent returns. Cheers!
