The best lenders reveal why waiting to talk to a pro can cost you thousands—and how early planning unlocks smarter, cheaper options for your first home loan. In this episode, David Sidoni shares insights from 250 top first-time homebuyer lenders on what they wish buyers did months before applying for a mortgage. He explains why relying on Google or AI can backfire, and how professional advice early on can tailor your loan for better long-term outcomes. Real-life examples show how small strategic moves, like adjusting debt or rethinking a down payment, can drastically lower monthly costs. Whether you’re a year out or just getting curious, this episode shows why it pays—literally—to start planning now.

- How pre-planning transforms your buying power—not just your approval odds
