In this episode of The Mortgage Show, we cover the latest Federal Reserve meeting under new Chair Kevin Warsh, what it could mean for mortgage rates, and why predicting rates remains as difficult as ever. We also break down recent Main State Housing updates, including lower rates, increased income limits, and why first-time buyers should still be paying close attention to the program.

We spend time discussing major upcoming condo financing changes that could impact buyers, sellers, and real estate agents throughout Maine, including the end of limited condo reviews and stricter reserve requirements coming in 2027. Plus, Chris shares a creative financing success story that helped a family relocate to Maine when another lender couldn't get the deal done.

And because it's us, we also squeeze in some conversation about the Celtics, Giannis trade rumors, raising teenagers, and our upcoming Casablanca Cruise fundraiser benefiting the Biddeford Education Fund.

Whether you're a homebuyer, homeowner, real estate professional, or just trying to stay informed about the housing market, this episode is packed with practical insights and real-world mortgage conversations.
