Horrid Housing Market Tales – Episode 227

“In 2022 a xennial couple decided this was the year to finally stop renting and buy a house. The pandemic was winding down, the stars (finances) were finally in order, and they weren’t getting any younger. Sadly, this is also the time of house flippers and investment buyers with cash, supply chain issues, and a lack of affordable starter homes.
