Today we are talking about whether it is better to pay off debt or invest. Like most financial questions the answer is, it depends. Read more at https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/pay-off-debt-or-invest/. We discuss what to do if you have a chunk of money sitting in savings account and what to do with the money you are saving to purchase a home. We also update you on some important changes to PSLF. The requirements are being relaxed to include more people and more types of loans through October 2022. And finally, we have a guest on the podcast to share about a real estate investment opportunity.

At some point in our financial lives, it will be time to buy a home. A physician mortgage can be a good vehicle for a young doctor who’s just out of school and has a more effective place to use their money than on a big down payment. These loans allow doctors to secure a mortgage with fewer restrictions and a lower down payment than a conventional mortgage. But if you’re further advanced in your career or deeper into your journey to financial freedom, buying a home with a conventional mortgage and then, later on, potentially refinancing that loan to a better rate with a shorter time frame could be a great move. Wherever you are in your financial journey, make sure you use the mortgage that will be most financially beneficial for you. Hop over to our recommended tab to learn more about all of your mortgage and refinancing options at https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/mortgage. You can do this and The White Coat Investor can help.
