And this is not the first example either of people that have been listening to Keep the Change and are really making significant changes to their lives.

So, yeah, so they came to see me because they were like, OK, we feel like we've done what we can do now and we kind of want some help to get to the next level.

And so for them, they want to buy their first home.

They want a home that's big enough that they can provide for their wider family as well.

And they, for both of them, it will be the first time that anyone in both of their families has ever owned a home.

How cool is that?

It reminds me actually of a couple that I worked with.

Years ago, and when they came to see me, they were like, okay, we want to buy an investment property.

Can you help us buy an investment property?

And I'm like, okay, yeah, well, let's, you know, have a look at your situation, see where you're at.

And they lived in a small rural town of New Zealand.

Harwood, sorry.

Something like that.

Maybe even smaller.

Oh.

Where everyone, like, in the community knew each other.

Everyone worked at the same, like...

factory um it was quite a yeah a close-knit town and so I was looking at their situation they had a home they had a mortgage uh they also had a flatmate who was like contributing helping them pay down the mortgage that was cool and they just didn't have enough cash flow to be buying an investment property so I'm like this is just going to be too tight for you guys and they're like well

we want to turn something around.

Like our families have been poor.
