Part 3:
Struggling to buy in this expensive housing market? In part three of our home buying hacks series with Chris Hutchins (from All the Hacks), you’ll learn why down payments AREN’T as big as you think, why working with a mortgage broker may be the best move to make, what lenders want to see before they pre-approve you, and home insurance tips to make sure you’re protected during a disaster.
In This Episode We Cover:
Debt-to-income requirements and what lenders want to see when you apply for a loan
Using a mortgage broker vs. a direct lender (and which will get you a better rate)
Home insurance 101 and how to protect your property for less money
The math behind buying a house (and why it beats renting in the long run)
And So Much More!
