Jelly bought a home in a crazy market, got a $10,000 credit, and appraised $30,000 over asking. How? A unicorn team, smart decisions, and a little bit of luck. It wasn't easy, but it was definitely worth it.

Quote: "We really hit the jackpot. It was a good day for us. Like we went out and bought a drink. We celebrated."

Highlights:

• How can having the right team turn your home buying fears into a dream come true?
• What's the secret to scoring a 2-1 buydown and a $30,000 appraisal bump in a tough market?
• Why is trusting the process and ignoring the naysayers crucial when buying a home?
• Can you really afford to buy a home even when you're juggling grad school, a wedding, and rising interest rates?
• What's the REAL difference between your employer's lender and a unicorn lender?

General Notes:

Jelly's story is a refreshing reminder that buying a home is possible, even when it feels impossible. With the right team, a clear understanding of your financial situation, and a willingness to make tough choices, you can achieve your homeownership dreams. Remember, it's not about timing the market perfectly, it's about making informed decisions and taking action. So, if you're ready to stop renting and start owning, don't let fear hold you back. Get educated, find your unicorn team, and start building your future today.
