Manage episode 523268204 series 2505056
Think you need $50K to buy a home? Think again — this episode shows the truth they’re not telling you.
First-time homebuyer numbers just hit record lows, but the real cause isn’t high prices — it’s bad guidance. In this episode, David reveals the proven, low-down-payment strategy that’s been hidden from buyers for years. It’s not new, and it’s not complicated — it’s just not profitable for the industry. You’ll learn how to build a custom plan based on your budget, not their sales pitch.
“Millions of perfectly capable first-time homebuyers are left in the dark. That sucks.”
HIGHLIGHTS
- The #1 reason first-time buyer rates are collapsing in 2025
- How the system profits from keeping you in the dark
- Rent replacement math: your secret weapon to plan smart
