AI can be an incredible tool in your home buying journey, but only when it’s used the right way. In this episode, I break down how buyers are using AI to search for homes, what it does well, where it can steer you wrong, and why the quality of the input and the user matters just as much as the output. We’ll talk about making sure the advice you’re getting aligns with your local market, how to avoid common AI mistakes, and how to pair smart tech with trusted expertise to make confident, informed decisions.

Buying your first home comes with a lot of unknowns. Especially when it’s time for the home inspection. In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly what happens during an inspection, what buyers should expect during the appointment, and how the process typically works from start to finish. We’ll talk about what inspectors look for, what shows up in a report, and why not every item is a deal-breaker. If you’ve ever wondered what really goes on during a home inspection, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence you need before stepping into your own.

The numbers are in, and they tell a powerful story. The median first-time buyer is now 40 years old, just 21% of buyers are entering the market for the first time, and down payments for first-time buyers have climbed to 10%. What’s driving these trends, and what does it mean for the future of homeownership? I’m connecting the dots between record setting stats and the growing talk of 50-year mortgages as buyers stretch to make ownership possible.
