If you bought a home in the last two years, there's an 82% chance you have at least one regret about it. Even more concerning? 12% of buyers don't even like their home. In this episode of Live in Your Wheel House, I'm breaking down exactly why this buyer's remorse epidemic is happening—and how you can avoid becoming another statistic.

I'm Kim Costa, a Top 5% Realtor® with Sotheby's International Realty, and I've spent years helping clients in the Atlanta area find homes that actually fit their lives, not just their budgets. The pandemic fundamentally changed how we relate to our homes—they became our offices, gyms, schools, and sanctuaries. Yet somehow, the traditional home buying process hasn't caught up.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• The shocking statistics behind widespread buyer's remorse and what they reveal
• How the pandemic shifted our relationship with home from shelter to wellness hub
• Why the real estate industry is behind the curve on what buyers actually need
• An introduction to the Wheel House Method—my lifestyle-based framework that helps you align your home with your life goals, relationships, health, career, and values

Whether you're thinking about buying, selling, or just reevaluating your current living situation, this episode will change how you think about one of life's biggest decisions.
