Welcome to a new week here on the Retirement Quick Tips podcast! I’m your host Ashley Micciche, co-owner of True North Retirement Advisors, an independent financial advisory practice managing $340 million in client assets. I’m a Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor and I’m using my 15 years of experience as a financial advisor to help you gain clarity and make a plan for the retirement you envision.

On this podcast, I cover everything from investing, to retirement spending, to taxes in retirement in just a few minutes each day, so if you’re 5-10 years on either side of retirement, and looking for some daily doses of retirement planning wisdom, stick around this week as I talk about How Pre-Retiree Homeowners Can Benefit From Higher Interest Rates

Most of the media pieces out there bemoan higher interest rates as a negative, and it is of course a huge problem for anyone with variable interest rate debt like credit cards, or anyone trying to tap into their home equity line of credit, buy a car or a house right now and get mortgage at 7%...no thank you. But there’s a great article that came out a few weeks ago that talks about ways to benefit from higher interest rates.

So this week, I’ll talk about how higher interest rates can potentially benefit you in a variety of ways…and in some ways you may not have considered before. 

That’s it for today. Thanks for listening! Come on back tomorrow…where I’ll talk about why further price declines in housing are coming, why I think it’s going to get ugly, and how you can take advantage of a housing market that’s in disarray. 

My name is Ashley Micciche...and this is the Retirement Quick Tips podcast.
