The $84k Flood That Might Just Change Everything

When a pipe burst turned their dream townhouse into a soggy mess, this week’s listener found themselves with a surprise $84,000 insurance check and a big decision: buy the forever home now or wait out the madness of the housing market?

If you’ve ever wondered whether now is the time to jump into the housing market—or stay on the sidelines—this is the episode for you. Want your financial dilemma on the show?
