EP163 - A RECESSION Will Have A HUGE Impact On First Time Home Buyers

A recession changes the game for first-time homebuyers, and not always in the way you’d expect.

While that can open doors for some buyers, it could slam them shut for others. In this episode, Jeb and Josh break down what a potential recession means for affordability, job security, consumer confidence, and loan qualifications. They dive deep into how economic shifts impact both opportunity and risk, so you can prepare now and make smart moves when the time is right. ✅ Ready to take the next step?
