Paul Shannon sits down with Logan Freeman (a.k.a. “Mr. Kansas City”) for a deep dive into the 18-year real estate cycle and how it shapes today’s market. Drawing on the works of economists like Fred Harrison and Phil Anderson, Logan explains why land scarcity and speculative credit often drive real estate booms and busts. He also highlights how investors can prepare for what he calls a “winter’s curse,” using historical cycles to spot new opportunities and avoid pitfalls. If you’re looking to navigate the next few years in real estate with an eye on both history and strategy, this conversation offers an essential roadmap.
