Owning vs. Renting: Unpacking the Truth About Home Investments

CONGRATULATIONS! We’re millennials. That means EVERYTHING about being alive is expensive. 

And the boomers have so generously gifted us with least affordable housing in the history of the world along with:
- Inflation.
- Student loan debt. 
- Expensive medical insurance that doesn’t cover our therapy bills.
- Randall Cunningham (to which we are very grateful. Go birds.)
And likely very vague wills leaving us to pay for them well after they’re gone.

Don’t worry. Seth and Jenn can help. 

We’re Philly-based millennials and top-producing realtors. 

Ok—admittedly Seth's a borderline GenX'er—but he was in the trenches of dial-up internet with us. And he’s really good at getting down payment assistance money from parents who we didn’t think would be giving down payment assistance, so we'll let it slide.

We’re here to call BS on all the myths and bad real estate advice floating around like what you just heard from the 22-year-old TikTok investment guru who stops your scroll for way longer than you’d like to admit, or some article that was clearly written with some off-brand version of ChatGPT. 

No. It doesn't matter to the buyer that the Zestimate is $485k. The Seth-stimate is $430k. And one of these is still successfully servicing home sales and the other is not…I’m just saying. 

We’ll talk about all the things millennials need to know. Like how to find money in life’s couch cushions.

What you should be doing now if you want to get into the market as a first-time home buyer. 

How to size up into a place that actually fits your life even if you’re sitting on a 2.9% rate. 

What all the puzzle pieces are, and how they fit together. 

Why Jenn does so much Boomer bashing even though she says she’s not that into it.

And it’s all lightly salted with some Phillies, Flyers, Sixers, and Eagles enthusiasm.

Check it out. I mean—it can’t hurt.
