Homeownership Is a Luxury—Let’s Talk Real Estate Realities ft. Candess Correll | It’s Sommer Time

In this season finale of It’s Sommer Time, host Sommer Hill welcomes Candess Correll, a powerhouse realtor, speaker, and advocate for informed homeownership. Together, they break down the entire home-buying process—from pre-approval to closing—with real talk, relatable examples, and a deep understanding of what first-time homebuyers actually need to know.

Whether you're buying solo, with family, or considering a co-investment, Candess shares game-changing insight on navigating loans, building equity, using your “why” as your compass, and even how to bounce back from mistakes.

🏡 In this episode, you’ll learn:

✔️ The real difference between pre-approval & pre-qualification

✔️ How to calculate your actual budget, not just what banks offer

✔️ What private mortgage insurance (PMI) means—and how to avoid it

✔️ The benefits of FHA, USDA, VA & conventional loans

✔️ How representation protects you when buying new construction

✔️ Why your mindset, not just your money, matters in real estate

✔️ What generational wealth looks like—and how to start with what you have

This episode is a must-watch for anyone even thinking about buying property in the DMV or beyond. Candess brings the real to real estate with clarity, care, and strategy.
