Home prices are up. Inventory is down. And if you’re not paying cash, you’re likely getting beat.
In this episode of EnRich Your Life, Rich talks with top Westchester realtor Ann Marie Damashek about how buyers can stay competitive in one of the toughest housing markets in decades. They cover financing strategy, inspection traps, how to prep before you even look at listings, and why some buyers are losing out over and over again.
If you’re buying your first home, or trying to downsize without getting stuck, this is the real talk you need.
