Most people in today's housing market are asking the wrong question and it could be costing them thousands. Jake and Cory break down the real math behind mortgages, refinancing, downsizing, renting out homes, and reasons your cash flow—not interest rates—should drive big housing decisions.
If you've ever wondered:
• Should I wait for mortgage rates to fall?
• Does refinancing actually save me money?
• Should I keep my low rate and rent my home instead of selling it?
• Is downsizing in retirement even worth it anymore?
• How do I know if a housing decision truly improves my financial plan?
…this episode gives you a clear, simple framework—without guessing, without relying on headlines, and without getting trapped by emotional or "rule of thumb" thinking.
