I constantly hear that buying a home, especially your first home is so overwhelming that buyers

who start seeking out information often dip their toes in and then they jump right back out

and give up as the fact finding can be so daunting that it just scared them out of the water

and back into their rental hole. So today we're going to hear from Philip, who puts the

anal in analytical. Now, wait a minute. It's not an insult. He actually says so in the interview. He

says that he and his fiance are the worst nightmare of a salesperson who wants to make a sale

that day. Self-described methodical person. Love that. I always preach preparation and

analysis. So you can learn a lot from me and my experience is telling you what I've learned

for first time homebuyers, but today I guarantee that you are going to learn some incredible

things to help you with your home buying process from this fantastic,

smart, yeah, I'm a little bit anal, but methodical and very purposeful guy.

This is Philip. Let's go.

Let's go. Okay, listeners, this is the time you've been waiting for, hearing a story from someone else out there.

Someone in a different part of the country than me who found the podcast,

follow the steps, figured out the planning, and is now sitting in their home. Ladies and

gentlemen, this is Philip. Philip, say hello to the world. Hey, everybody. How's it going?

Okay, so everybody wants to know how to buy a home. That's why they click on it. So let's get a little

backstory. Tell us where you started thinking about buying a home and what you did at the very

beginning before you found the podcast. So, I mean, really finding the podcast was one of the first

things I did when my fiance and I decided that we were

ready to buy a home. The first thing I realized was how little we knew about the process, how

little we knew about this massive financial transaction we were undertaking. I love podcasts.
