One of the biggest misconceptions about buying a home right now is that you have to wait for the perfect moment, perfect rates, perfect timing, perfect market.

The truth is, that moment doesn't really exist.

A lot of buyers pause because of headlines or assumptions, but every situation is different.

Race change, market shift, and personal goals matter just as much as what's happening nationally.

That's why talking to a local lender can be so valuable. When you contact Stock the Mortgage, you get paired up with a local lender. That lender will give you your options. That lender will explain the situation. You can ask your own questions. That's what it's all about. Get into the closing table as simple and as easy as possible. Our friends at Stockton Mortgage focus on helping people and understand their options,

whether you're ready to buy now, later, or just starting to ask questions.

There's no pressure to make a decision, just a chance to get real information and a clear picture

of what's possible.

Sometimes the smartest move isn't waiting, it's getting informed.

Visit Stockton.com today to learn more about your options.

Welcome to Hour 2 of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage.

Now here's Matt Jones.

Welcome back.

Hour number two, Kentucky Sports Radio, 859-280-28027. We can't spend this whole show just being frustrated. By the way, KSpar, my trivia is tomorrow night. You got your team ready? I'm got half of them ready. I'll load up the rest of my dream team by the end of the day. You were one spot away from making it last time.

No, we were right there. So you're very close. You could make it this time. Can you help me cheat a little bit? No, but I'm working on the questions today, and I'm going to make it extra special. Okay. And I may even have one question that if you have paid attention to the shows, you would get correctly. Which means you're not going to get it correctly, even though you're on it.

Let's do one non-UK basketball thing just to try to lighten the mood. Little Winter Olympics. Canada is playing the Chechia. By the way, they don't call it the Czech Republic anymore. Czech Republic. Did you know that? It's hard to keep up with what to call the Czech area. It used to be, you called it Czechoslovakia. Then they were like, no, not doing it anymore. Then it was Czech Republic. It's not that anymore. Now it's Chechnya. Chechnya or Chechnya? Either way, it's an Ea. So just so you know. Because I called it the Czech Republic, and somebody was like, nope, not that anymore. Didn't know that.

It's hard to keep up. Either way, it's an IA. So just so you know. Because I called it the Czech Republic and somebody was like, nope, not that anymore.

Didn't know that.

It's hard to keep up with it.

All right.

So I got asked a question, which I think is good for the group.
