Many homeowners feel financially stuck clinging to a low interest rate while juggling rising expenses, car payments, and consumer debt. But what if that 3% mortgage isn’t the whole picture? In this episode of the Salt Lake Real Estate Podcast, Michael Wolters walks us through the powerful concept of the “blended rate,” revealing how tapping into home equity can help pay off high-interest debt and create long-term breathing room even in a higher-rate market.
You’ll hear a real-life story of a family of six crammed into a three-bedroom home, overwhelmed by student loans and car payments, who discovered a path forward by selling, paying down debt, and moving into a space that actually fit their life. We also explore why curiosity is one of the most underrated skills in real estate how asking deeper questions about a client’s lifestyle, goals, and pain points can unlock opportunities they didn’t realize were possible. From creative buying partnerships to budget breakdowns, this episode is packed with insights for both real estate professionals and anyone feeling “stuck” in their current situation.
Listen in to learn why now might be the perfect time to take action and why being curious is the first step toward a smarter, more strategic move.
