Listen to this week’s show and learn:
01:29 The U.S. population increases by 2+ million annually, and they all need a place to live. This naturally increases demand for real estate.
08:44 Thinking and acting big.
11:33 Why develop a new piece of land rather than just buy an existing building?
13:40 New development = better returns, higher risk.
18:00 Successful developers use design that fits the latest lifestyle trends.
22:40 How to forge relationships so that local government officials will support your new development.

0:42.7 | Welcome to Get Rich Education Episode 37. I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. Thanks for investing |
0:48.9 | your time here today. It's the show where I want to make you more successful than me faster than me. |
0:56.9 | You know, I often talk about playing a game worth winning. |
1:01.3 | That's why I say do the right thing first, and only then do you concern yourself with doing things right. |
1:07.7 | Well, it's easy to make a case for real estate as that right thing because it serves a basic |
1:13.5 | human need. That need or demand is going to continue to increase. And how do we know that that |

1:54.6 | extra 2 million plus people every year, they're not distributed across the nation or the world evenly, and that's why finding |
2:03.5 | the sustainable markets that are attracting people and jobs is even more important than the |
2:07.6 | property itself. But of course, the property itself that you're buying is still important, |
2:12.8 | and the more utility that the property has, the more underlying demand should continue to be there. |
2:18.5 | So we're going to talk about real estate development today, and developers need to shift their |
