Testimonials
I’ve worked in the real estate industry for 30 years, basically a transactional broker, this program is exciting and reinforces my beliefs regarding real estate investing. The videos also break some long-standing investing rules which, frankly, needed to be broken. Good stuff. Thanks!
What great info. The tools in this program are sure to make anyone who can see colors or follow arrows, a successful investor. I’m looking forward to the updated and new tools.
Great info, can’t wait for the webinar. We are investors in Volusia county staying close to home but realize we need to grow. Always learning to become better at the game and look forward to your wisdom.
Ken: I really enjoyed the training. I have been looking for this kind of information for years. I have not been able to find anyone who teaches or understands the indicators that drive the market up or down. Most people know Real Estate is cyclical but have not found anyone teaching this kind of information. I am really grateful to you for making this available. I have been investing in real estate since 1974 and have been lucky to invest in markets that were appreciating.
I was involved with Housing Alerts when you first launched it several years ago. Since then I have been studying TA and I think you are right on. Being one of those investors who made a lot and lost more, I wish I had paid attention to this type of information versus working so hard and not seeing the forest because of the trees. Thank you for sharing your videos and insight for all of us to see.
Thank you for this critical information. It is by far the most comprehensive information I have encountered. I would like to hear more from you. I find myself having to start all over again for my retirement years. I find myself hopeful once again.
Great information on real estate. I have learned so much from your wealth of knowledge. Looking forward to learning a lot from your webinars. Thanks for your being so liberal with well needed facts in real estate.
I am a Realtor Investor. Thank you for providing this useful information. It makes sense. I will definitely use the information in my REI pursuits in my market here in Southern California.
Absolutely necessary food for thought if you are a serious investor. This wakeup call is exceptional. Thank you!
This is superb content, and it will definitely help me in my REI pursuits in my markets.
Thanks for yet another straight forward video. No fluff and not too repetitious. I too am in my 50s and need accurate info quick. I am done playing with the knee jerkers, the one shot wonders and flavor of the month gurus. You are the real deal. Keep it up.
Thanks. I have watched this twice to fully retain for better/future investing. Wish I had read this back in 2008 when I lost many hundred thousands.

Advanced Indicators
STAR Indicators
The STAR momentum indicators show the 'energy' behind any market. For a sustained up-cycle, it MUST be supported by momentum. Market Psychology influences momentum but is not the only driver.
The first step in locating investment candidates is evaluating the STAR indicators. Each of the six 'triggers' represent a distinct Technical Analysis (TA) 'event.'
The left-most columns are Short-Term triggers and carry far less significance than the Long-Term indicators on the right.
However, all Trend Reversals (up or down) BEGIN with the short term triggers. They provide early-warning signals, especially when they develop a consistent pattern of changing colors (from green to red, or red to green) 'growing' from left to right.
Green means positive, upward sloping momentum. Red means the opposite. Yellow occurs when, in the current period, the slope/direction changed for that trigger.
Markets that do not display a consistent color pattern; with seemingly random horizontal color changes from one period to the next, especially in the long-term triggers, are generally lacking ANY momentum, and are poor investment markets for Leveraged Appreciation.

TAPS Indicators
The TAPS (Technical Analysis Point Score) indicator is an easy to understand, graphical way to show the results of complex Technical Analysis (TA) 'Studies.'
The simple 'slider ball' can move a total of five notches starting from far left (Weak) to far right (Strong).
If the ball position has moved since the prior period, it will have a series of arrows behind it. If the arrows are on the left, that signifies a move from the left, from a weaker to a stronger position, and vice-versa.
Each detailed TA Study has its own slider ball indicator and consists of dozens to hundreds of individual calculations (collectively referred to as 'algorithms').
These detailed algorithms are aggregated and weighted to produce higher level Summary slider indicators until the top-level, overall score is attained.

Close Tab Real Estate Cycle Charts
Charts showing the annual appreciation or decline in real estate values over time are visual snapshots of Supply and Demand forces in action. Technical Analysis (TA) relies on these charts because they accurately reflect what ACTUALLY happened.
The practice of TA consists of what are called "Studies" – different sets of calculations and algorithms proven over time. These Studies include Market Psychology, the most powerful driver of all.
Because real estate is so cyclical (compared to the Stock Market, for example), relatively simple Studies can be used to accurately track local markets.
Using these charts and Studies, HousingAlerts.com deciphers the data into two broad categories:
1) Market Momentum (the Six Trigger Alert Report or 'STAR')
and...
2) TA Point Score (TAPS)

Close Tab Percentile Ranking Gauges
These gauges show the exact percentile (rank) of this market relative to all markets. A score of “95%” means that, for this indicator, 95% of ALL markets scored lower. 99% (Green) is the best, 0% (Red) is the worst. Typically, a Master Score in the Green area indicates a hot market.
Exit a market based on declining Master, TAPS and STAR scores, especially when new, emerging markets show much stronger relative strength. Follow the "Wealth Phase" chart (when it is no longer green) for the 'last' indicator on when to EXIT a market.
Before initiating a NEW investment or entering a NEW market, look for a high (green) Master, TAPS and STAR (momentum) scores combined with a 'green' Wealth Phase chart.
