Think you have to wait until 40 to buy your first home? Think again.
In this episode of College Real Estate Coach, Vikki Grodner is joined by Royce Dickerson — who purchased his first home in his 20s while in grad school — and Ken Grodner, co-owner of Hospitality Network Group at Keller Williams.
They unpack:
• Why the “you can’t afford it yet” narrative isn’t always true
• How young professionals are buying sooner than expected
• The structure behind a vetted nationwide agent referral network
• Why referrals don’t cost buyers more — but do protect them
• How relocation buyers, renters, and parents of students benefit from expert guidance
Whether you’re exploring Tuscaloosa real estate, Birmingham real estate, college-town investing, relocation for UAB or the University of Alabama, or simply wondering if now is the right time to buy — this conversation provides clarity.
Real estate isn’t just a transaction. It’s a relationship. And having the right team in your corner changes everything.
