In today’s episode, we go through the MBA's latest profitability report. Plus, Robbie sits down with Storable’s Holly Fiorello for a discussion on how mortgage rate "lock-in" is reshaping housing mobility, borrower expectations, workforce relocation, and the future of homeownership, while examining whether new lending products could unlock significant pent-up housing demand. And we close by looking at reactions to the Federal Reserve's decision to keep rates steady, as well as the rhetoric used by Fed Chair Powell in his press conference.
