    Wow. The same thing happened to my husband and I. We bought a new construction home put down our earnest money and 2 weeks later they called us stating they sold our home. We were crushed because that was the last home in this subdivision. Well God made a way. A couple who was supposed to buy a home that I fell in love with first but we couldn't afford they backed out. The builder called us and let us buy the home for the same price as the home we placed earnest money. The home the Lord gave us was $30,000 more than what we afford. I know God is going to make a way for you and your family 🙏

    Something similar happened to my husband and I. After 5 years of paying off debt, a year looking for a house and finally finding one that I loved, my husband was like, no. This don't feel right.
    The NEXT DAY, the company that my husband works for that paid us more money that we know what to do with, announced that they were laying off 90% of of its work force.
    Y'all... Lenders were like... Nope! But I'm sitting in my house right now.
    My husband started working at his new job the same day he signed the severance package for his old one.
    Because of his pay cut we qualified for two grants. One for the closing costs and one for the down payment. From day one we had equity in our home.
    I don't know how God is gonna do it for y'all, but I'm sure he will. Can't wait for the video on how he does. 💚💚💚💙💙💙💜💜💜

      The house they rented is way better and nicer than the one they wanted to buy. God knew it was out of their league given the current climate in the economy. Bigger is not better when it comes to houses. Too much house is a pain and 4 people don't need a huge space.

    The real estate world is very crucial for african americans in general, Red lining is very real & it's clear that the lady who was rude to you guys didn't have your best interest at heart from the beginning sending you through all those turmoils about what each transaction meant. I hate that we live in a society where African americans are treated this way when it comes to the business world or anything else in that matter. I just hope you guys are aware of this issue & know that rejection is always waiting for us in things like this. They don't want us buying homes & it's very sad & ignorant.

You can get a super large home that is next generation. Meaning you can have your studio connected to your house. Live near Nia Long, look up Haven Estates in Rancho Cucamonga. Great schools.

    Let me tell you where God is in this story. He made sure you didn't get into a financial situation that you would regret for the next couple of years. Sometimes sad times are really blessings. We don't know how long this thing is gonna go on. And think about this. In the next year or two, you may be able to pick up a house for half of what you would pay today if the ramifications of this virus continue. He's STILL good!

    You suffered a serious loss. You have both the right and need to grieve. Moving is a huge amount of stress and change, even when everything goes right. This is on the scale of canceling a wedding--you set your mind to permanently alter the course of your life and now that has fallen through. It makes sense to compartmentalize as far as needing to figure out where to live next, but definitely work through your loss. Out of sight is NOT out of mind, as we all know too well. There is always someone whose situation is worse than yours, but that doesn't invalidate your pain. Walking wounded is still wounded.

After hearing about the loan process and the loans disappearing, I need to rethink my strategy. Preparation is everything. There is a house for you guys out there that will be perfect for you and the kids. It's coming.

    Kevin & Melissa, have you all considered moving from the state. We moved from Southern California to Boise, Idaho 22 years ago. A lot of actors and actresses have moved from there to here. It’s a one hour plane ride to Cali. The house prices here are mid $300’s for a brand new home with back yards and a ton of space. Even the older homes are a lot better than Cali homes. Also the schools are a lot smaller especially the charters here. Much grace to you guys💞

We wound up closing on 2/28 RIGHT before COVID-19 really hit. Mind you...this was out 3rd closing date. Another week and we’d still be in our apartments. I feel you on the multiple visits with the tape measure and buying furniture lol! My Amazon wish list was lit 😂. I shed many tears but by Gods grace, it worked out. And it’s working out for y’all too. God is gonna give you what you lost TEN FOLD!!! Love you guys!!!! ✊🏾🥰

    I felt that when Melissa said you can't buy things with a house, you need cash for food ect. But y'all did a good job of showing how complicated it can be to buy a house and how renting is sometimes the better option. Especially if you're able to get something reasonable that allows you to save up your cash for something bigger and better. The silver lining is, without putting down roots in LA, it allows you to be more open to other possibilities that you might not even know about yet.

    First I want to say I empathize with you guys over this process; working towards something that was guaranteed and to have it snatched out of nowhere is extremely mind/ emotional boggling; second Do you guys have a video on how to manage my days? You guys get so much done in a weeks span and I would love to learn from you 🙏🏾

    As a self-employed single parent I appreciate you both for shedding light on the home buying process. I think I'll take a page from your book and chill until things smooth over. When that buyer's market hits I'll be ready! Thank you both for sharing and for being so transparent about your experience. 💫💫💫

    Listen, I am a healthcare provider right in the midst of COVID-19 and I am here to say that this is 100% a grieving process for you and it is not insensitive to be sad over this. This is affecting literally all aspects of life for almost everyone. Prayers for us all.

Thank you guys for posting this content because I've found myself getting discouraged during this process. But after seeing your video, it reminds me that I'm not the only one who's gone through this and not to give up or get discouraged. Home buying is an emotional rollercoaster! But y'all will get your dream home soon! Keep pushing!

    My husband and I just went thru this same thing last year! Listen.... I did not realize buying the American dream was so stressful, by the time we went in several circles I was like keep your dream and we ended up renting a home that had everything we wanted in a very very nice neighborhood! The other thing I realize the home buying process is prejudice!!!!! Just listening to y’all I felt yah all the way but my stress came back thinking about what we went thru... the situation is still raw hahaha! Your new home I very beautiful! Enjoy! We were also told the industry would not fall for at least 5 years, well fast forward to today and we are on the break of a huge industry fall so they will be begging for buyers soon!

    Listening to this I am grateful that our whole home buying experience was vastly better. We just closed in March 2020, my mortgage interest rate was reduced, twice! I did so much research on home loans, we did a VA loan, because I don't like unexpected, my anxiety can't take it and I am a super nerd queen. We signed our closing in the car because of the distancing restrictions, I was like "it can be whatever, as long as I get my house." I worked in a real estate office back in the early 2000s, one of the agents had a saying, "it isn't your house, until they give you the keys", that was replaying in my head until the closing was over. And now, I am forever unpacking. Glad this worked out for you, Melissa and Kev.

In time, God is going to bring you something greater. When I was going to buy my first home several years ago, I lost my job the week before closing and had to walk away from it.
