Investors are watching interest rates closely, hoping for cheaper financing … but low rates aren't just about borrowing costs.  They're a key barometer of both the currency and the overall economy, and changes can ripple across markets in ways that matter. Understanding that correlation is important for anyone invested in real estate. To make sense of it all, we turn to our good friend George Gammon, a prolific real estate investor and entrepreneur with a passion for studying and teaching macroeconomics. He shares his latest predictions on where interest rates may be headed, the real threats in today's slowdown, and why "cheap money" often comes with hidden costs. Listen in for a wide-angle discussion to help you spot opportunities, avoid surprises, and position yourself ahead of the next big shift.
