What do you do when your financial goals clash with the people closest to you? This week, we’re diving into the messy, emotional side of shared finances, from property co-ownership drama to parenting across two households with totally different money vibes. First up: one listener is trying to build a future with her partner, but there’s a major catch... he owns a home with his sister, and she’s not ready to move on. We unpack what happens when family, finances, and real estate get tangled, and how to protect your relationship (and your sanity) when it’s time to move forward. Then, we get into a dilemma so many of you will relate to: how do you teach kids good money habits when they’re growing up between two completely different financial worlds? We talk boundaries, budgeting, and how to raise financially savvy humans without starting a family feud. Plus, we’ve got everything you need to kick off your weekend right: Your favourite money wins and confessions, broke tips you'll want to steal and all the unhinged chats you love.

Mortgage balances climbed by $20 billion to $12.94 trillion, while credit card debt hit $1.21 trillion. Student loans declined slightly to $1.64 trillion, and auto loans showed mixed trends across sources. For many families, this means mounting stress and fewer financial options.

Today we are going to give you some tips on how to strategize the top four aspects of getting your mortgage approved. Want to add thousands in value without spending a fortune? Appraisers Tom King and Allen McCool will be talking about what to fix, what to skip, and what can sink your loan before you ever list your home.

With almost 20 years of experience in the mortgage lending industry, Lindsay LaBonte (a BusinessWest 40 Under Forty honoree in 2018) has become one of the Western Mass. region's most prolific loan originators. But it's about more than numbers, she says, emphasizing elements of her job like relationship building and financial education for clients who are often navigating the homebuying process for the first time — at a particularly challenging time for buyers, for many reasons. On the next episode of BusinessTalk, LaBonte, branch manager and senior loan officer with HMA Mortgage, talks with BusinessWest Editor Joe Bednar about the many aspects of her job, how she and her team prioritize community involvement in myriad ways — from philanthropy and volunteerism to a new program called Local Love Days — and why it's still so ratifying to help people achieve the dream of homeownership. It's must listening, so tune into BusinessTalk, a podcast presented by BusinessWest.

Episode 3233: Miranda Marquit unpacks the key differences between a HELOC and a second mortgage, helping homeowners make smarter choices when tapping into their home equity. Whether you're funding renovations or consolidating debt, you'll gain clarity on which option offers the flexibility, stability, or risk profile that aligns with your financial goals. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.goodfinancialcents.com/should-you-do-a-heloc-or-a-second-mortgage/ Quotes to ponder: "A home equity line of credit is a revolving line of credit that allows you to tap into the equity you've built in your property." "If you know exactly how much money you will need, for something like debt consolidation or to contribute to a child's college education, a lump sum can be helpful." "You are using your ownership in your home as collateral, and you could lose your house if you fall behind in your payments."
