These 7 Home buying Lies Are Ruining Your Chances to Buy Your First Home in 2026!

If you’re a first-time buyer and you keep saying, “I want to buy… but I’m not ready,” this video is for you.

A lot of buyers aren’t stuck because they can’t buy. They’re stuck because they’re believing myths that sound smart, but actually delay the process, hurt confidence, and cost you money over time. In this video, I’m busting 7 common home buying myths that keep first-time buyers scrolling listings and overthinking instead of moving forward with a real plan. We’re talking about the big ones like “you need 20% down,” “you should wait until rates drop,” “student loans mean you can’t buy,” “your credit has to be perfect,” and more. And stay until the end because I’m sharing a simple gut-check that helps you figure out if you’re closer than you think.

I’m Lynette Selby, a Realtor® in North Carolina, and I help first-time homebuyers go from overwhelmed to confident with a clear plan and honest guidance so you can actually buy without feeling like you’re guessing every step.
