Today’s Guests:
On this 6/30/26 edition of Your Money Matters, brought to you by Affordable Interest Mortgage, Host Scott Whatley talks with owner Kurt Rogers, about one of the biggest questions facing today’s homebuyers: Should you buy now or wait? Kurt explained that the answer depends on several factors, including where interest rates may go over the next year, whether home values will continue to appreciate, and the possibility that mortgage rates could actually increase. Using real-world examples, he demonstrated how even modest home appreciation can offset potential savings from waiting for lower interest rates. The program also explored how buyers can position themselves for the best financing opportunities by understanding their budget, down payment options, credit scores, and available loan programs, including first-time homebuyer programs, FHA, VA, and buydown options. Kurt highlighted the advantages of working with a mortgage broker versus a traditional bank, emphasizing access to multiple lenders, competitive pricing, specialized loan programs, and personalized service. The show concluded with an explanation of how seller concessions can significantly reduce upfront costs and reviewed the key steps prospective buyers can take to improve their credit scores before purchasing a home. Whether buying or refinancing, being prepared financially and informed about your options can save thousands and lead to a much more confident decision. Kurt Rogers is our exclusive Mortgage Broker.
