| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Real Estate Strategies podcast, where we host in-depth conversations on everything |
| 0:07.8 | real estate with the industry's biggest movers and shakers. I'm your host, Ken McElroy, joined by my co-host, |
| 0:14.6 | Daniel. Let's get right into this episode. Welcome to the Ken McRoy show. I'm your host, |
| 0:20.1 | DeNeil, here with Ken. What's up? |
| 0:21.9 | So today we're going to be talking about Amazon and getting into the single family home market. |
| 0:27.0 | And this could be a Black Swan event that, you know, people are unprepared for. Yeah, I know. This is a big |
| 0:33.0 | one, actually. This is very interesting because Wall Street's been involved in this for a while, |
| 0:38.1 | but now, of course, this is just one more, you know, I mean, this is a, I don't know exactly |
| 0:44.7 | what's going to happen next, but these big companies. Exactly. You know, so essentially, |
| 0:50.3 | Jeff Bezos has invested in a real estate platform called Arrived Homes, and he's thrown a lot of money into this, into this platform. |

| 1:28.7 | I'm talking about Wall Street. And they were buying up all the distressed real estate, you know, |
| 1:33.6 | during that period of time, during that last period of time. And I think we were buying the stuff |
| 1:38.3 | at 50 cents, 40 cents on the dollar. And they did very well financially on the on the on the real estate market so this is a |
| 1:46.1 | transfer of wealth that's exactly how this should be looked at well it's interesting too so if |
| 1:51.0 | arrived homes basically they let essentially anybody invest with them with a minimum investment of |
| 1:57.2 | $100 so it's like crowdfunding but but in way, it could be good because it allows the average person to invest in real |
| 2:06.5 | estate, maybe if they don't have the money to actually buy a property. |
| 2:10.5 | I disagree. |
