The Hard Truth
Sun Feb 01 2026
You’re working more, but your money is buying less. In Georgia, the old math of 'save and buy' has been replaced by a reality that feels rigged against the average earner.
In this episode, we get into the uncomfortable truth about why home prices have detached from local incomes. We aren't just looking at the surface-level stats; we’re breaking down the friction points in the 2026 market—from the hidden costs of 'convenient' real estate models to the economic shifts making the Peach State more expensive by the day.
If you feel like you’re running a race where the finish line keeps moving, this episode is for you. We’re diving into what’s actually driving this wedge between your paycheck and the front door, and what it means for the future of homeownership in Georgia.
