## Resource

Episode 106 — Take Advice From People Who’ve Actually Done It In this episode, Stephen and Derick get brutally honest about something that goes way beyond mortgages: 👉 Who should you actually take advice from? This conversation was sparked by a first-time buyer who said:“I don’t want advice from someone who’s never done this.” And honestly? He’s right. 🎧 In this episode: Why experience > theory when it comes to homebuying The difference between textbook knowledge and lived knowledge How to spot well-meaning but bad advice from family and friends Why your lender and Realtor should have walked the path you’re on Some tough love for first-time buyers getting pulled in the wrong direction Bottom line:Good intentions don’t equal good advice.If you want results, take advice from people who’ve actually produced them.
