Is it possible to buy your first home in a very expensive area with just one income? This Baltimore first time home buyer couple did it! Allison and Ephraim found out their rent was going up 30%, and they discovered it was over $10,000 cheaper to break their lease and buy their first home with only ONE of their incomes, and pay on $50 more a month in a mortgage. It helped a lot that Ephraim’s dad was a Realtor and that really helped them set up a unicorn team. But even if you’re not fortunate enough to be related to someone so highly-attuned to your market, you’re going to pick a lot of value from this episode. Tune in for a lot of incredible tips, tricks, and hacks, including how they used the podcast to help them!
