0:00.0 | Hello, everybody. This is Jake Sunday. I host, Jake and Gino podcast. Here with my co-host, |
0:10.9 | the multifamily mentor, the coach, Chef, Father, Six, the best line off there. The Gita. |
0:14.5 | Gino Barber is your going. Jake, I'm doing good. Sitting next to you today. How you doing? |
0:18.2 | It's a little awkward, but we're making it happen. A very special |
0:21.1 | guest today. Today's guest is the CEO of John Burns Research and Consulting, a company he found |
0:26.9 | in 2001 that specializes in independent, unbiased analysis of the real estate industry. And that's, |
0:32.2 | you know, that's why we love it. That's where we get the data from, right? And for more than 27 |
0:35.7 | years, he has helped executives like |
0:37.5 | ourselves form demographic-based strategies. So without further ado, John Burns, welcome to the show. |
0:43.5 | Happy to be here. I don't talk as fast as you guys, though, so I may slow it down a little bit. |
0:47.5 | I'm an 80s kid, and I don't know if you remember micro machines, but that's where I got it from. So we'll just let it rip. Yeah, I guess we moved a little slower in the |
0:54.8 | 60s. That's all right. Well, you know, those those drugs that caused that, but we won't talk about that |
0:59.7 | today. So I was when I was two years old, just to be. Fair enough. Fair enough. John, let's get your |
1:06.8 | background, if you don't mind sharing your story and how you got started in business? |
1:17.1 | I went to undergrad, got a degree in economics. My dad was a CPA, so I went and did the CPA thing for two years, went back to grad school, joined KPMG's consulting practice at the time. |
1:24.9 | It was a generalist practice. My boss, they reorganized the company by industry. My boss picks real estate. And so I end up as a real estate consultant starting in 1989. We've been working on commercial real estate golf courses, hotels, housing, everything. And then I left there in 97 because I recognized, well, I really |
1:48.2 | left there because I was traveling too much and started a family. But then in 2001, I recognized |
1:53.7 | that the people investing in housing were not nearly as sophisticated as the commercial real |
1:58.6 | estate guys. And so there was an opportunity to bring |
2:01.5 | some of that commercial real estate sophistication to the housing industry. So that's why I started |
2:06.6 | the company in 2001. And it's been a good ride for 21 years. John, what keeps you up at night |
2:12.5 | about this current real estate market? Well, I've got 130 employees, so they tend to keep me up at night. |
