They discuss why more housing doesn't always mean more homes available to buy, the growing message that renting may be better than owning, and why it's important to make housing decisions based on your own goals, not someone else's.Whether you're hoping to buy your first home, thinking about your next move, or simply trying to understand where the housing market is headed, this episode offers a different perspective on one of today's biggest housing conversations.The episode also includes information about our upcoming Path to Homeownership Workshop, a free HUD-certified homebuyer education class designed to help future homeowners better understand the homebuying process.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/YhZKwHiZpjQHEQIJZ9KQo4dH5cQxbsFZRjwFfLaqT3w/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS80NjE5/ZWYxZDJjNjViZGNm/YTdmN2NjZjFiNGFi/NjFkOC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
