About this listen
In Episode 3 of Coffee Break Real Estate, Danny Benjamin and Adam Youhanna break down the biggest myths that keep buyers stuck on the sidelines.
We cover:
- “I need a perfect credit score” and what the real minimums look like
- Credit Karma versus lender credit pulls and why FICO matters
- Simple ways to boost your score faster, including credit utilization
- “I need 20% down” and what down payment options actually look like
- PMI explained and how down payment changes the monthly payment
- Why waiting for rates to drop can cost you more through appreciation and competition
- Why talking to a lender usually will not destroy your credit
- When a second opinion can save a deal that another lender could not close
