Top 5 Mistakes Young Couples Make When Buying Their First Home
In this episode, I will cover:
- Focusing on mortgage rates
- Overlooking closing costs
- Not shopping around
- Buying more house than you can afford
- Not getting pre-approved
Welcome to the launch of The Mortgage Minute, a new mini-series on Business & Beyond. In this debut episode, I break down the 5 biggest mistakes young couples often make when buying their first home. From focusing too much on getting the lowest rate instead of understanding mortgage terms, to the shock of unexpected closing costs, I highlight the pitfalls that can turn a dream purchase into a stressful experience. I also discuss why it’s crucial to shop around for the best options, the risks of stretching your budget to the limit, and how failing to secure a proper pre-approval can lead to costly surprises. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer or just want to brush up on smart mortgage strategies, this episode offers essential insights to help you avoid common missteps and make informed decisions. Tune in for practical advice that could save you time, money, and a lot of headaches!
