1/13/22: I joined CBS Mornings to talk about what the latest home sales data means for the housing market. We also discussed mortgage rates and what you need to consider when looking to buy a home to ensure it's affordable for your family.
1/06/22: The real estate market continues to be bonkers, causing many to wonder if they should be looking to sell.
With the FINE movement (Financial Independence, New Endeavor) in our sights, it it better to have our money in the market or invest in real estate?
With the housing market crazy, should I be looking to buy or keep renting? Oh, and by the way, I basically get the down payment as a perk from my employer.
My brain is telling me to refinance the mortgage, but I'm not sure how long we're going to be living here, so I'm stuck in the mode of paralysis by analysis.
Knowing that you have seven more months of rental income at $2,400 per month, where should you be directing the cash?
Thanks to a recent home sale in this hot housing market, you've basically got $500k to play with. What should you be doing with the money?
Here's the actual email from our latest caller:
