Chapter 1: What bad financial advice is trending on TikTok?
I'm Nicole Lappin, the only financial expert you don't need a dictionary to understand. It's time for some money rehab. There's a whole lot of bad financial advice out there, especially when it comes to real estate. I see real estate hacks on TikTok all the time that literally make me want to throw my phone across the room and some that are totally legit and super helpful.
So today I'm going through some of these hot trends and tips with the real estate expert, Barbara Corcoran herself. We talk about which of the hacks are true and which are totally BS.
but because it's barbara we couldn't just talk about that we also talked about which celebrities need to get realistic about their crazy real estate listings how often barbara checks her bank account which absolutely shocked the hell out of me and which of the sharks on shark tank she would want to start a business with here's barbara barbara corcoran the queen the one and only welcome to money rehab that's a nice introduction i like the way it sounds wait you don't get the queen at every podcast you go to
No, no. I used to. I ran my brokerage business. People readily called it if they wanted to raise or want to impress me. All the politicians that worked for me, I never promoted them.
Even when they called you queen?
No, not at all. Dead giveaway. That's a queen move.
All right, let's go to real estate. I saw you recently say that if someone's sitting on the sidelines waiting for interest rates to drop before they get into the real estate market, they could be making a very expensive mistake. Can you explain what you meant by that?
Of course, you either pay the bank a higher interest rate, like right now that people are complaining about, or you pay a homeowner a higher price. When interest rates go down, prices always shoot up. And then even worse than that, more insulting, is you compete with two, three times as many buyers. So it's so hard to get what you want.
So I think the sooner somebody gets in the market, ignores the rate, you can always refinance later. It doesn't always make sense immediately, but there's always a point where it makes sense. The smarter you are. And the other reason I think you have to get in the market is I just feel always that people have to get in the game. If you're not in the market, you have no chips to play at the board.

Chapter 2: What common mistakes do buyers make in the real estate market?
Without bragging rights, right? Hold on to your wallets. Money Rehab will be right back. And now for some more Money Rehab. Have you ever needed money rehab?
Not really. Thank God always was good at making money. I was almost running out when something good would happen. And I really believe that money was meant to be spent. So I never really took it so seriously. I still don't.
How often do you check your bank account?
I don't. I have no idea.
Really?
I mean, why do people keep a lot of money in a bank account? I guess I should check my portfolio once in a while, but I don't do that either. I just trust the people that manage it and hope it's there when I need it. We'll see. They probably got down yesterday.
So if somebody, you know, God forbid, put a gun to your head and said, Barbara, how much do you have in your brokerage? You would have no idea?
No, I have no idea. What difference is it going to make? I hope I don't sound ignorant to you saying that, but I'm such a good delegator. Once I start something and give it to somebody, I don't feel like I have a check on them. They're just terrific people.
you did something so awesome on your 70th birthday i loved it so much you threw yourself a funeral why did you do that i can't live that party down i didn't do it as a pr event but my god it keeps coming up i did it for one reason i don't like surprises i overheard two friends talking they didn't know i heard them about the surprise party they were going to give at my house
