Will a New Tax Break Save New York Real Estate?

Let’s talk about something spicy—no, not Thai chilis. I’m talking taxes. (Trust me, it’s more interesting than it sounds.)
 
This week’s episode breaks down one of the most buzzworthy changes buried in the latest federal budget: the new $40,000 SALT cap.
 
For years, homeowners in high-cost, high-tax states—think New York, New Jersey, California—were stung by the $10,000 cap on state and local tax deductions. Now? That cap has jumped to $40,000, and it could shake things up in some of the most expensive housing markets in the country.
 
Here’s what we unpack:
 
🧂 What the SALT cap even is (and why it matters)
💸 How it affects upper-middle-income and affluent buyers
🏡 Which counties are most likely to benefit (spoiler: hello Westchester)
📉 Why this won’t move the national housing market—but could matter a lot locally
🧠 What real estate agents, developers, and retirees need to be thinking about
 
Whether you’re buying, selling, or just wondering what the heck “SALT deduction” means, this is your quick, clear, and honest breakdown of how policy might change the real estate game (or just slightly tilt the board).
 
If you ever want to buy or sell a property anywhere in the world, our team would be honored to help get you to your next destination.
 
Until next time, stay curious, stay hungry, and as always… stay ALL IN!

Zuck, Altman, and the AI Arms Race: What Superintelligence Really Means

What happens when “artificial general intelligence” — AGI — starts to sound too achievable?
 
You invent a new buzzword: superintelligence.
 
In this episode, I unpack the wild shift happening in Silicon Valley’s AI obsession. Once the holy grail was AGI — machines that can match human intelligence. But now? We’re hearing a louder call for something even bigger: AI that’s smarter than all humans, at everything.
 
From Mark Zuckerberg’s billion-dollar pivot to Ilya Sutskever naming his entire company after the idea, “superintelligence” is quickly replacing AGI in the tech lexicon. But what does it actually mean? Is it a real scientific goal? A recruiting strategy for elite researchers? Or just the latest round of AGI inflation?
 
We’ll break down:
Why “superintelligence” is catching fire now
How far we really are from it (spoiler: no one agrees)
Whether it’s hype, hope… or a hazard waiting to happen
And what vending machines have to do with any of this (yes, really)
 
Plus, I’ll tell you why this whole debate might matter more than you think — whether you're in tech or just trying to get your AI-generated pizza order right.

Dave Portnoy vs. 50 Top Pizza: Who’s the Real Slice King

Do Italians and Barstool agree on what makes the best pizza in America?
In this episode, I dive headfirst into the melty, saucy world of the 50 Top Pizza USA 2025 list — that’s right, the official ranking from Italy’s most respected pizza judges. But here’s the twist: I cross-checked every single one of them with One Bite’s pizza reviews from Dave Portnoy. Because who better to hold a pizza accountable than the guy who’s taken “just one bite” thousands of times?
 
Some pizzerias shine in both worlds. Others? Not so much.
You’ll hear which of these “Top 50” spots Dave has actually reviewed, and — spoiler — let’s just say he wasn’t always generous with the scores.
 
If you’re a pizza purist, a Dave Portnoy disciple, or just someone who’s hungry and doesn’t want to get burned by the hype, this episode’s for you.
Come for the sauce. Stay for the drama. 🍕

Trump’s $4.5 Trillion Bombshell: Winners, Losers & the Real Estate Shakeup

This week, we’re diving into one of the most polarizing—and potentially game-changing—real estate moves in years: Trump’s $4.5 trillion “Big, Beautiful Bill.”
 
What’s actually inside? Beyond the headlines and hot takes, we break down how this massive package affects real estate at every level. From a permanent reboot of the Opportunity Zone program to major changes in SALT deductions, pass-through tax breaks, and low-income housing tax credits—it’s a shakeup with something for everyone… and not in a warm-and-fuzzy way.
 
We’ll talk about who wins, who loses, and why luxury and affordable housing developers alike are paying close attention. You’ll also hear why some green energy builders might be panicking, and how this bill could drive serious shifts in investor behavior and long-term real estate strategy.
 
Plus, we ask: Is this just good politics, or a short-term Band-Aid on long-term structural cracks?
 
Whether you’re a developer, investor, homebuyer, or just a policy junkie with real estate FOMO—this one’s for you.
 
🎧 Tune in. Take notes. And maybe pour yourself a drink.

This Housing Analyst Just Called Out the Fed—Here’s Why

Buckle up—this one’s juicy.
 
In this episode, we dive into the wild week where FHFA Director Bill Pulte (yes, that Bill Pulte) called for Congress to investigate none other than Fed Chair Jerome Powell. You heard that right. It’s Jobs Week, mortgage rates are flirting with new lows, and the Fed is smack in the middle of it all.
 
Joining the conversation is lead analyst Logan Mohtashami, who breaks down the ADP job numbers, Powell’s testimony, and what the second half of 2025 might hold for mortgage rates, homebuyers, and, honestly, all of us trying to make sense of this economy.
 
We talk about:
Why Bill Pulte is going after Powell—and what he thinks Powell got wrong.
Whether weak labor data could push the Fed toward faster rate cuts.
Why the market might already be pricing in a recession… even if Powell isn’t.
The hidden signals in the jobless claims and job openings data.
Logan’s spicy take on why the Fed is old, slow, and always late to the party (his words, not ours—but we’re not disagreeing).
 
And yes, we’ll laugh through the chaos—because this stuff is too real not to.
 
If you want to understand the current market, housing trends, AND how politics, rates, and economic forecasts are about to collide… this episode is a must.

Florida to Ohio: Where Homes Are Flying and Where They’re Stuck

For years, it was a seller’s world—bidding wars, sight-unseen offers, homes flying off the market in days. But in 2025, things have shifted quietly… and dramatically.
 
In this episode, we break down one of the most surprising trends of the year: the slow but steady power shift toward buyers. With inventory rising (+31.5% YoY) and homes taking longer to sell (hello, Naples at 72 days!), many markets are inching toward a more balanced—or even buyer-friendly—equilibrium.
 
We’ll explore:
Why this isn’t just about more listings, but slower absorption
Which Florida cities are seeing the longest wait times (spoiler: Miami's on the list)
Why Midwestern metros are still lightning fast (looking at you, Springfield and Cincinnati)
How this trend varies wildly across the U.S.—and what it means for YOU whether you’re buying, selling, or just watching Zillow at midnight like the rest of us
 
This is your data-backed reality check on what’s really happening beneath the surface—and why it might be the best time in a while to negotiate hard… or hold firm.
