A 100% free, 90-minute online workshop led by Jeb Smith and Josh Lewis
My wife and I are first-time homeowners, and I found The Educated Homebuyer podcast early in our search. I went back to the oldest episodes and felt like I found a gold mine. Buying a first house is overwhelming, and these guys explain everything clearly.
Josh quickly got on the phone for an informal pre-qualification, gave us a clear idea of what we could afford, and answered targeted questions I had thanks to the show. Jeb referred us to an amazing realtor we never would’ve found on our own, and Josh got us pre-approved so we felt confident in every home we viewed.
Once our offer was accepted it became a whirlwind, but we felt informed at every step. The process is only scary if you don’t know what to expect or don’t have reliable people around you. Getting educated and working with experienced, trustworthy people made all the difference. We’re stoked to be in our first home.
Most buyers either delay too long—or jump in without a real plan. This proven 3-step blueprint helps you avoid both, so you can buy smart, buy confidently, and buy on your timeline.
Avoid buyer's remorse by starting with clarity. What's your motivation? Is this a short-term move or long-term hold? We'll help you define your goals, align with your partner, and build a buying strategy that fits your life—not someone else's idea of what you "should" do.
Forget ballparks—get your real numbers. How much can you afford? What will the monthly payment be? What will it actually cost to close? We'll walk you through loan approval, payment ranges, down payment options, and the exact cash you'll need.
Don't go it alone—or get stuck with the wrong people. The right lender and agent can make or break your outcome. We'll show you how to vet them, what to ask, and connect you with pros who put your goals first—not their commissions.
You don't need to be a mortgage expert or market genius. You just need a clear plan and the right guide. This is where it starts.
No fluff. No generic advice. Just exactly what you need to become the most prepared buyer in any market.
How to get fully pre-approved in 5 days or less—even if you've been told to "wait and save more."
Know your max purchase price, monthly payment, and total cash-to-close—before you talk to an agent or tour a home.
You do not need 20% down or perfect credit. We'll show you what actually matters—and what lenders aren't telling you.
Is it a good time to buy? Should you wait? What if rates drop? Learn how to read the signals—and ignore the noise.
Understand how rates, lender fees, and closing costs really work—so you don't get taken advantage of at the last second.
The agent or lender you choose will make or break your deal. We'll show you how to spot pros—and avoid amateurs.
