Summary

Oil prices are high, and that impact reaches far beyond the pump. Energy costs ripple through the economy, showing up in the price of goods, operating expenses, and what tenants can afford. But there's another side to the story: the same forces driving prices up can create real opportunities for investors. In this episode, Robert Helms sits down with our friend, oil expert, and President of PANEX, RJ Burr. They discuss the increasing demand for American oil, how the company finds and produces it, and what that means for investors—including potential income, tax advantages, and a way to diversify into a real asset many overlook. Tune in to hear why oil could be an unexpected ally for real estate investors, and stick around as we spotlight the Dallas–Fort Worth metro in our Market Spotlight.
