5 Real Estate Myths That Could Cost You
Do you really need 20% down to buy a home? 🤔
Should you wait for interest rates to fall? 📉
And is the first offer always the best one? 💰
In this edition of ASK Thursday—Answers, Strategy and Knowledge, Andy Schildhorn and Kylene Shannon put five common real estate beliefs to the myth-or-fact test! 🕵️♂️🕵️♀️
🏠 What we discuss:
👉 Whether buyers actually need a 20% down payment
👉 If spring is genuinely the best time to sell
👉 Whether waiting for lower interest rates is a smart strategy
👉 Why the first offer may not be the strongest offer
👉 Whether all Realtors provide essentially the same service
⚡ We also finish with a rapid-fire round covering open houses, renovations, new-home inspections, buying before selling, and BC Assessments
The truth is, real estate rarely has one-size-fits-all answers. Your finances, property, timeline, and local market all matter—and that’s where experience and a thoughtful strategy come in. 🧠
