What do reality TV and the past few years of real estate have in common? There’s lots of drama, and no one really knows what’s going on. We’re kidding (mostly), but with the way the housing market has changed over the last few years (and even decades), talking to an expert is a great first step to better understanding the current market and the home buying process. This week, Tori is joined by Selling Sunset’s Maya Vander, who helps break down the home buying process and shares her thoughts on the current and upcoming markets and what to keep in mind as a buyer besides just the financials. And, of course, we get into her time on Netflix’s Selling Sunset and learn some surprising facts about what the show does and doesn’t pay for. Learn more about our guests, read episode transcripts, get resources from the show, and more on our show notes page: https://herfirst100k.com/financial-feminist-show-notes/ Learn more about your ad choices.
