🎙️ NEW FACTS OVER FEELINGS EPISODE

Wills, Trusts, and Wi-Fi: Estate Planning Isn’t About Death… It’s About Control

Most people think estate planning is only about what happens when you die.

Wrong.

The real issue is what happens if you’re still here… but unable to act.

Do your loved ones have access?
Do you have proper POAs in place?
Or will your family be left scrambling during a crisis?

In this episode, I discuss:
✔️ Why technology is changing estate planning
✔️ Why access matters more than ego
✔️ Why advisors and attorneys should be working together
✔️ The real documents families actually need

💥 You can lose your Texas homestead exemption without moving.

I almost did.

All it took was putting my house into a trust. Ownership changed on paper, and I had to reapply just to keep my exemption.

Had to:
– Restate my trust
– Get it notarized
– Go back to the appraisal district

Nothing changed in my life… but everything changed on paper.

With exemptions now over $100K, this is not a small mistake.

Watch the full breakdown.

• A hidden opportunity to reclaim penalties from prior years

This is what I’m actually seeing behind the scenes running returns right now.

Are people really getting larger refunds this year?

Not exactly.

🏠 You Can’t Force Housing Affordability

Everyone thinks lowering mortgage rates will fix the housing problem…

It won’t.

Rates are driven by the 10-year Treasury, inflation, and risk—not headlines or policy moves.

Yes, you might see a short-term dip…

But affordability is bigger than rates:

• Home prices
• Property taxes
• Insurance
• Income

That’s what actually matters.

🎙️ In this episode, we break down what’s really driving mortgage rates—and why policy alone won’t fix housing.

👉 Watch now and let me know your thoughts in the comments.
