The housing market seems to be heating up again as mortgage rates start to come down. If you’re planning a move, it can be hard to determine what upgrades to do on a house that will actually have a good return on investment. Nate Reineke and Chelsea Jones look at what upgrades generally have a good ROI and which ones may actually lose you money. We also share how sometimes the most basic fixes that boost curb appeal are actually the ones with the greatest impact on selling. We also answer your colleagues' questions. One doctor said, “We are ready to buy our forever home but all the houses in the area that meet our standards are $1.2M. We can build and buy property for $1.3M. Why wouldn’t we just do that?” A dermatologist in North Carolina asks, “Should I open an LLC for my 1099 Locums work?” An Infectious Disease Doc wonders, “On your most recent podcast, the last question was about putting post-tax money into a 401k. The doc did not have access to converting it to a Roth. At my institution this year, they are making us put our catch-up contribution amount for age 50+ post-tax into a Roth. I think this is different than the scenario that you spoke about, but can you clarify if this is acceptable?” Are you ready to turn worries about taxes and investing into a plan for college and retirement?
