Is It A Good Time To Buy Real Estate wit...

Shari Rash, Money Podcast for Women, Personal Finance, Relationships & Mental Health
About this episode

In this episode of Everyone's Talkin' Money, I'm back with another fascinating topic: home buying in today's market and whether it's a good time to buy real estate. I was walking around my neighborhood this morning and was blown away by the number of people selling, buying, and remodeling houses. I was thinking there’s so much talk about high-interest rates and how expensive housing prices have gotten, but it doesn’t seem to be deterring anyone from going about their normal buying, selling, and remodeling home business. So then I thought, if you’re looking to buy your first home, is there ever a “right” time to buy? Lucky for us, Bianca D’Alessio, who is the Ranked #1 Real Estate Broker in New York and New York State and #14 in the Nation for 2022, manages a $10B real estate portfolio for Nest Seekers International and is the Star of Selling the Hamptons on Max(formerly known as HBO) is our guest.

You'll learn:

  • How to pave your way to first-time home buying in this market
  • How to be competitive when buying
  • Why lenders are more concerned about your credit card debt than your student loan debt
  • If the Airbnb market is really a bust
  • Why staying in your home for 10+ years is probably the best investment you’ll ever make
  • Oh, and we’ll also talk some dirt about Selling the Hamptons
