In this episode of Fast Track, Derek chats with Mariel, a nurse who turned her dream of homeownership into reality in just 26 days. Tired of the challenges and restrictions of renting, Mariel downloaded the ERA app, completed the learning blocks, and received expert guidance to navigate her first home purchase—all solo.
She shares the mindset shifts, practical tips, and strategies that helped her save, plan, and finally take the leap into owning her own home. From overcoming doubts to realising it was actually happening, this episode is a real, inspiring look at how the right support can make first homeownership achievable—fast.
