    Saving up for a starter home takes more and more time

    How long does it take to save for a starter home? New research says the time has doubled since 2019. On average, it now takes a renter 16 years to save up for their first home purchase… and that's only putting 3.5% down on a $335,000 house. For more on the new report from the Julian Bond Institute and what it means for young people who hope to someday buy a home, the hosts turn to Skyler Ford, a mortgage advisor with Neo Home Loans. He also talks about mortgage rates falling a bit for the first time since August.

In this segment, Greg and Marty have a conversation on that.

    Early voting is underway across the state and mail-in ballots are already being returned. This morning, we learned from the Lieutenant Governor that statewide turnout so far is 6.45%. That's nothing compared to several states that'll be key to who controls Congress; many of those places are seeing record turnout so far. As we get closer to the election, it has us wondering more about the peaceful transfer of power that's such a key part of our constitutional republic. But Deseret News opinion editor Jay Evensen says our elections have become so toxic; he joins the show to explain how not conceding a race plays into this.
