“I think you have to get in the game,” Shark Tank investor and real estate mogul, Barbara Corcoran, told Yahoo Finance. “You have to get in with whatever house you can possibly buy, so you have a chip to play in the game and trade up and trade up and trade up. And that becomes a retirement fund.” There’s a lot of truth in that. Your first home may not be your dream home, but it can be a vital chip in the game. My advice is to compare all the options (investment, condo, buying somewhere else, adjustable rate mortgages, cost of renting vs buying, and more). If you need help laying out the options, call me for an appointment. I’m not just here to help you buy, I’m here to help you PREPARE to buy…whenever that time comes. Seven Restaurant, 7182307777
