It's the most wonderful time of the year, so we naturally had to get something off our chest. In this special episode of Housing Insiders, Jeremy plays solo host and Jonathan plays guest, bringing his Christmas Wish List for FHFA Director Bill Pulte and the GSEs. It's an extra passion-filled episode that reveals Jonathan's biggest wish for 2026, the creation of a GSE-backed construction loan. The Build My Home Mortgage could turn a niche, confusing "construction-to-perm" corner of the market into a mainstream path where realtors, lenders, and small builders can confidently tell families, "Can't find the home you want? We'll build it with you." It's an interesting solution to the supply crisis, especially when you consider the number of abandoned homes, empty lots, and land for sale while the housing crisis rages on.

Whether you're a housing professional or simply care about the future of where we live, Housing Insiders delivers practical ideas for shaping a more accessible, resilient housing ecosystem. Don't miss this episode, and subscribe for more expert insights and actionable solutions.
