Episode Description

This week Matt walks through the two documents every homeowner needs to pull off their county recorder's website tonight. First, the five specific kinds of houses that have effectively stopped selling in 2026 -- the memory-priced home, the fixer, the flood-zone house, the un-warrantable condo, and the well-kept resale sitting next to a builder with a rate buy-down -- and the K-shaped market that's rewarding certainty and punishing anything with a second bill on top of the mortgage. Then he unpacks the two-word lawsuit -- quiet title -- that homeowners are quietly using to erase dead liens, zombie mortgages, and even fraud from their titles before a closing table forces the issue. The whole to-do list runs about half an hour and costs nothing. No spoken URLs this week, but the county recorder's website is the one link that matters.
