Think you know your mortgage? Think again.
 

In this episode, we pull back the curtain on the truth about today’s wild housing market — because “hoping it’ll all work out” isn’t a plan.

While the market showed a tiny spring stir in May, the year-over-year numbers are still sluggish, and the condo market? Let’s just say it’s having a moment — and not the good kind. But is that a red flag or a green light for buyers?

🛠️ Inside This Episode:

  • Why condos aren’t dead — and could be the smartest buy right now
  • The harsh truth about relying on “future renters” for pre-con projects
  • How to know when it’s time to refinance (and how to avoid using your house like an ATM 💳)
  • The major mortgage renewal tsunami coming in 2025–2026 — are you ready for it?
  • Real talk on power of sale listings and why more homeowners are quietly drowning in debt

🎙️ My guest @mortgage.mani is part strategist, part therapist, and 100% committed to helping people make smarter mortgage moves — whether you’re buying your first home, downsizing, or juggling multiple properties and praying your pre-con doesn’t flop.

If you’ve ever whispered “I should probably figure out what kind of mortgage I have…” then this episode is your wake-up call.

👂 Tune in, take notes, and maybe even call your lender afterward. Because not knowing your numbers? That’s the real risk.

🔑 Let’s make it make sense — one mortgage myth at a time.
