Episode notes

Mortgage rates improved slightly this week, with the 30-year fixed averaging 6.07% — and the Fed meeting brought… absolutely nothing. 👀

In this episode of Take Ten, Corey and Lisa break down:

• Why the Fed “doing nothing” is actually good

• Trump’s nomination of Kevin Warsh as next Fed Chair

• Why the bond market really controls mortgage rates

• Why independent mortgage banks now originate 84% of loans

• Hybrid eClosings that save your clients time

• What happens AFTER closing (this is the part no one else is doing)

If you're a Realtor who wants to sound smarter in the room and add real value to your clients — this is your 10-minute cheat sheet.
