71 – Interview With Randy, A New Homeowner, Unemployed With Zero Credit A Year Ago Who Just Closed On His $200,000 Home

If you think buying a home is a pipe dream for you and seem YEARS away, then listen to our 25-year-old guest. At 24, Randy was unemployed with no credit. When he asked his bank if he could get a home loan, they told him to call back in a year. Yup, they gave him no instruction...just don't bother us now and figure it out. Then he went online and called Zillow. Their sage advice? "Uh, no." So, Randy kept working and one day found the podcast. Two months later, we are doing this interview from his new $200,000 three-bedroom home on a half-acre with a two-car garage and basement.
