This week's episode will inform you about all the happenings in the market and we promise to bring you some laughs along the way! We talk about everything from the most recent jobs report and wage pressure cooling to the lowered VA funding fee! There's a short sermon in today's episode about why you shouldn't be afraid to offer and accept FHA and VA loan programs. Stick around till the end for an invite to this month's events. You don't want to miss this!

Corey Freels, Autumn Lane, and Becky Ruckart lead the conversation in market updates, FHA news, and how to care like a healthy tribe.

Following the Market Forecast from Wednesday, Corey summarizes what's going on currently, how to prepare for the upcoming months, and the "why" behind it all. To start, here is some evidence....our March pipeline is double our February pipeline, and that demonstrates the impact of lower rates! Rates moved lower, housing ticked higher. When rates improve we will have a good year; hang in there, Realtors! There is light at the end of the tunnel.

As we all know, a Realtor's business doesn't build itself. You may find yourself with a little extra time on your hands and maybe, if you've been in the business a while, you probably have a gold mine of a database to work with. Our biz development guru, Bekah Ruckart, gives a breakdown of her role with The LTW Group and how she puts her millennial powers to work by helping Realtors use shiny tools and systems grow and work their business. If you haven't had a brainstorming meeting with Bekah yet, don't waste any more time. Reach out!

After this week's Fed meeting, Corey breaks down the meaning behind the jobs report, inflation, and what this all means moving forward. On top of this, we believe we are in a tight closing window for your buyers to have negotiating power. It's a win-win for them. Next up, Autumn, who is one of our govy queens, reminds you DO NOT let your turn downs getaway. We have avenues to help your buyer win who otherwise may not be able to. There are some changes coming down the pipe from Freddie and Fannie, so we may start to see some more government loans. Long story short, they are making the guidelines a bit stricter. Don't be afraid to accept govy loans when you're on the list side. Bekah, the fun haver herself, shares an invite to remain flexible and healthy as we march forward through this market. So stick around until the end!
