The Playbook VOL. 2: Your Last Lease Ever - 389
Manage episode 505514158 series 2505056
Most renters can buy a home in 12 months or less — if they have the right system. In this episode, David Sidoni reveals the "Last Lease Ever" playbook, a practical step-by-step guide that helps first-time buyers turn rent payments into a customized strategy for homeownership.
The housing industry has failed first-time homebuyers, leaving most renters without guidance until they’re already “ready to buy.” But the truth is, with the right coaching and a clear plan, many renters could become homeowners in just a year.
In this episode, David Sidoni hands you the ultimate playbook for buying your first home — a proven system that focuses on the Big Three: credit, debt, and savings. Instead of navigating myths and industry neglect, you’ll discover:
- How to build a rent replacement strategy that sets you up for success
- Why you only need one action step per month to move forward
- The critical difference between pre-approval and pre-qualification
- How to calculate and understand your debt-to-income ratio (DTI)
- Why working with a unicorn realtor and lender early changes everything
This isn’t a crash course, a webinar, or a PDF — it’s a personalized, actionable plan. With just two free 45-minute meetings, you can map out your 12-month blueprint to turn your rent into a mortgage and finally start building wealth.
Quote: “You only need one action step a month. No fluff. No gimmicks. Just real results. That’s how you make this your last lease ever.”
Highlights:
- The “Last Lease Ever” playbook: a clear, customized 12-month roadmap
- Why the industry ignores first-time buyers during the planning phase
- The Big Three explained: credit, debt, and savings
- How to use DTI (Debt-to-Income Ratio) to understand your buying power
- The role of unicorn realtors and lenders in building your plan
- Why most renters could buy a home in 12 months or less
