Episode 106 — Take Advice From People Who’ve Actually Done It
In this episode, Stephen and Derick get brutally honest about something that goes way beyond mortgages:
👉 Who should you actually take advice from?
This conversation was sparked by a first-time buyer who said:
“I don’t want advice from someone who’s never done this.”
And honestly? He’s right.

The difference between textbook knowledge and lived knowledge
How to spot well-meaning but bad advice from family and friends
Why your lender and Realtor should have walked the path you’re on
