This episode is all about helping the next generation-our kids-start building wealth now instead of waiting until "someday."

If you’re a parent, auntie, mentor, or just someone who cares deeply about legacy, this one’s for you. We’re talking about creative ways to get young adults into their first property—even in today’s wild market. Think co-signing, first-time homebuyer programs, seller financing, and real talk about what to do (and not do) when helping your kids invest.

We also cover the not-so-obvious stuff: how to avoid turning a generous gift into a long-term headache, why it pays to model investing instead of just preaching it, and what questions to ask before saying “yes” to buying that condo near campus.

It’s fun, practical, and a little sentimental—in the best way. Let’s talk about planting the seeds of generational wealth, one door at a time. Here are the top takeaways:

1. Get Creative to Help Your Kids Enter the Real Estate Market Early

It’s no secret—homeownership feels out of reach for many young adults. But this episode reminds us that with the right tools (and mindset), parents can help their kids take the first step toward building real estate wealth.

2. Ownership Beats Renting—And It Can Start During College

Why pay rent to someone else when your kid could start building equity instead? Ann shares a case study that reimagines the college rental years as an investment opportunity.

3. Real Estate is a Long Game—Start Early for Compound Gains

Buying early isn’t just about a good deal—it’s about time in the market. Ann explains how compound appreciation and rent growth can outpace the cost of college itself.

4. Seller Financing Is an Underrated Wealth-Building Strategy

Traditional financing doesn’t work for everyone—especially entrepreneurial young adults. Seller financing could open new doors for families willing to think outside the box.

5. Help, Don’t Control: Teach, Model, and Let Them Lead

Helping your kids into homeownership works best when there’s alignment, not pressure. This episode emphasizes modeling wise investing and allowing room for their buy-in.
