Mortgage Tech Talks

E94: Recap from Conference


Listen Later

There’s no magic button for AI in the mortgage industry — and that’s exactly what I talk about in this episode.

In this week’s Mortgage Tech Talks, I share my full recap of the National Mortgage Conference — what I saw, what I learned, and why so many brokers are still chasing shortcuts instead of building real systems that last.

I also unpack the biggest question I kept hearing: “What’s the one AI tool I should be using?” The truth? There isn’t one. But there are ways to use AI that actually move the needle — and I walk through a few real examples of that in action.

You’ll also hear my thoughts on privacy, security, and how tech is making a real comeback in the mortgage space right now.

If you’re a mortgage broker who’s tired of surface-level “AI hacks” and wants to understand what’s actually working in our industry — this one’s for you.
