Today in Mortgages

We're talking politics on "Today In Mortgage!"  based on this article from The Hill titled: "Democratic senators call on the fed to cut interest rates over high housing costs." Our team breaks down this headline, and finds yes, the federal reserve is accountable to congress, but their main job is to keep employment high and prices stable. Those pushing on the fed to lower interest rates can hope to influence them, but the feds bottom line is  not to keep housing affordable. 

As mortgage professionals we need to be knowledgeable and prepared to help our borrowers make wise borrowing decisions. Listen in as we breakdown todays news!

Welcome back dream-makers! Today we look at an article from Fox Business titled "Mortgage demand rises even as mortgage rates increase." We are finding that demand is outweighing the mortgage rate environment.

As mortgage professionals we need to be knowledgeable and prepared to help our borrowers make wise borrowing decisions. Listen in as we breakdown todays news!

Today on "Today In Mortgages" we discuss how politics will affect mortgage rates. Presidential nominees are making lots of promises when it comes to interest rates according to today's article from The New York Times, but the Federal Reserve is independent from the president. A president can affect future policy but they cannot control rates directly.

As mortgage professionals, we need to know what's happening in the market so we can help keep our borrowers informed with the most up to date information. Listen in as we discuss today's news!

Today on "Today In Mortgages" we discuss where home prices are headed in 2024. We take a look at an article from Housing Wire: "Fewer homes will take a price cut in spring 2024." The article states high interest rates slowed housing demand, but with rates dropping that could all change. Our company is already seeing applications going crazy for purchases. 

As mortgage professionals, we need to show our borrowers the difference between buying at a higher interest rate vs. buying at a higher purchase price. We want our borrowers to succeed and it is our responsibility to help them make the best decision for their personal situation.

Today on "Today In Mortgages" we discuss a sound bite from NPR's Marketplace Podcast that discusses whether high home pricing is the cause of pessimism concerning the economy? As we've seen inflation come down, the Fed has raised rates to accomplish that. The one exception to that is housing. Anytime you bump interest rates, you're going to see inflation in housing. But, we think the the worst is over, and the end is near based on the Fed's meeting last week. 

As mortgage professionals, we need to make sure we are informed about the housing market, so we can coach our borrowers and help them succeed!

Welcome back dream-makers! Today, on "Today in Mortgages," we talk about Housing Wire's article "Democrats to introduce bills to ban hedge funds from single-family housing market."  Government is getting involved in who can and can't own real estate. Hedge firms own lots of property, which single-family homebuyers would love to own. Democrats want them out of the single-housing market in 10 years, but the likelihood of this passing is low. 

As mortgage professionals, we need to make sure we are informed about the housing market, so we can coach our borrowers and help them succeed!

Welcome back dream-makers! Today, on "Today in Mortgages," we talk about an online article from Mortgage Reports titled "What is the Biden Neighborhood Homes Investment Act?". The white house has put together a plan to bring more relief to homebuyers: remodeling homes and providing funds for down payment assistance. This is still just a proposal and hasn't been voted on yet, but more housing is definitely a need. There aren't enough homes on the market, and we really do need more options!

As mortgage professionals, we need to make sure we are informed about the housing market, so we can coach our borrowers and help them succeed!
