    162 - How Much Home Can You Afford With Your Salary? Feb 09, 2023
    Show notes

    “Hey David, I make more money now. What kind of house can I buy on my new salary?” - A Lot of First-time Home Buyers

    “There’s an equation for that!” - David Sidoni, #1 First-time Home Buyer Advocate & Data Chart Enthusiast

    Yes, it’s true. There is indeed an equation that can help you determine how much home you can afford based on how much you make. David will spill all the tea in this episode… but you HAVE to promise to listen to the whole podcast. He’s not kidding. There’s more to the numbers than meets the ears.

    David made all of his calculations based on very rounded, very average numbers. Know that interest rates, home prices, and the overall market will ALWAYS change. Always. You can’t just walk away with the numbers from this equation and assume you’ve got it all together. Instead, take this equation, get a ballpark estimate, and then get in touch with a highly qualified real estate agent and allow them to help guide you the rest of the way.

    160 - Want a Balanced Life? Look No Further Than These Locations Feb 02, 2023
    Show notes

    A good work ethic is a timeless principle, but the all-work-no-play mentality of the Boomer and Gen X generations is going out of style. Millennials and Gen Z find more value in a healthy work/life balance that prioritizes mental health and personal values.

    Well, David Sidoni did some research (as he loves to do) and found studies that highlight the best places to live if you’re looking for a balanced and happy life in 2023.


    Looking at mental health, income, remote working prevalence, commute times, and health insurance, Midwest cities DOMINATED the lists for the best balances of these factors. Also, these cities had more affordable housing options for first-time buyers. Hmm… definitely worth thinking about. The top 10 cities had some of the shortest commute times, best air quality, best insurance coverages, a variety of recreation options, great affordability scores, and high mental health rankings.
