What do mortgage rates, job security, and building houses have in common? Schuyler Williamson, founder of Mission Homes in Austin, joins JC to break down what’s really keeping people from buying — and why small business ownership might be the antidote to a shaky job market. In this episode, they cover:

• The myth of “bad timing” when it comes to buying a home

• Why a stable job doesn’t always mean stable income

• How owning your own business gives you more control than any employer ever could

• What Schuyler’s seeing on the ground right now in the housing market

Whether you’re thinking about owning a business or buying your first home, this one’s about taking back your own certainty — instead of waiting for the economy to figure it out for you.
