In this episode, I break down mortgages, how they work, and the importance of down payments and loan types:

  • The differences between 30-year and 15-year fixed mortgages, interest-only loans, and adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs)
  • When does refinancing make sense?
  • How HELOCs can serve as a financial safety net and when it might be beneficial to tap into your home equity.
