Freelancing + Buying a House

Is it possible to buy property while working for yourself? Recently, Jenni and Wudan both bought houses -- so the answer is yes, but with a lot of caveats! In this episode, we'll talk about what kinds of things to do if you're thinking about buying property, how to make sure your team is working for you and supportive of your business, and barriers you may face as a self-employed person looking to take on a loan. The TL;DR: The house-buying process is a mess, the market is crazy, but buying a house is possible if you have support and get your business paperwork together. if you’re just discovering us and want some guidance on navigating contracts, or building our a business plan for your freelance business, check out our self-paced courses on our Teachable page.
