The average age of a first-time homebuyer in 2024 was 38—nearly a decade older than it was just 10 years ago. For too many Americans, the dream of homeownership feels increasingly out of reach, causing their overall wealth to lag behind that of their parents at the same age. While headlines focus on the housing affordability crisis, another critical issue is unfolding—one that rarely makes the news: the widespread lack of financial literacy among American consumers. As an industry, we have a vested interest in ensuring future generations of homeowners not only understand how homeownership builds financial security but also develop the financial disciplines needed to qualify sooner rather than later. It's a challenge that FirstHome IQ , a nonprofit founded and supported by mortgage professionals, is working to solve.

Endeared to history as the last great Philosopher King, Marcus Aurelius's legacy is shaped more by his stoic writings than by his imperial conquests. Similarly, I believe Nathan Knottingham—Chief of Staff at Vetted VA and Co-Founder of MLO Force—will be remembered more for his insights into leadership, the heart of service, and the centrality of purpose than for his daily impact in reshaping our industry. As an advocate for housing for veterans and an expert in continuing education training, Nathan is a wealth of knowledge for lenders and loan officers. But throughout this dynamic conversation, it became clear that he has a challenge for every originator, branch manager, and mortgage executive willing to listen: to be better and do better—not just for ourselves, but for our industry, our teams, and the borrowers we ultimately serve. This conversation will leave you reflecting on how you lead your team, serve your clients, and, ultimately, live out your purpose in business and life. About MLO Force Mortgage loan originators and brokers wield great power in the lives and dreams of American homeowners. With that power comes (you guessed it) great responsibility. MLO Force believes the mortgage journey should transcend the transactional and become transformational for the aspiring and existing homeowners we interact with. Our CE aims to bring out the best in every MLO—to be a mortgage hero to your borrowers; ethical, people-first, and ready to do what it takes to make a difference in their lives. 🔗 *Learn more:* https://www.mloforce.com/ 🔗 *Explore courses:* https://www.mloforce.com/courses 🔗 *Read the blog:* https://www.mloforce.com/blog-1 About Nathan Knottingham Nathan Knottingham is transforming online education in the mortgage sector. As the CEO of MLO Force, Nathan leverages his experience as both a leader and originator to make NMLS Continuing Education as affordable and painless as possible. A frequent speaker on the mortgage conference circuit, Nathan often sheds light on the best and highest use of the VA Home Loan. Since 2019, he has served as the COO of Vetted VA, which not only provides trusted information for the industry but also fosters a supportive community for lenders and originators serving veterans through homeownership. Nathan also serves as Chief of Staff for Be My Neighbor Mortgage, where he plays a key role in supporting borrowers on their homeownership journey.

If you had to rate your confidence in the mortgage industry in 2024 on a scale of 1 to 10, what number would you choose? For HousingWire president Diego Sanchez, it’s a solid 10—and for good reason. As someone who interacts daily with lenders, vendors, and a best-in-class reporting and editorial team, Diego has his finger firmly on the pulse of the mortgage industry. Despite high rates, low inventory, and persistent inflation, he sees a wealth of opportunities on the horizon for originators and shares his top insights on how to capitalize on them. Don’t miss this dynamic conversation between the industry’s most decorated sales expert and the president of one of the most influential (and fastest-growing) media companies in mortgage and real estate. Dale and Diego cover a wide range of topics, from key data trends to the impact of technology and information on modern originations, the downstream effects of the NAR settlement, and the ongoing transformation of the valuation and title insurance industries. Subscribe to Batting 1,000 YouTube → youtube.com/c/dalevermillion Apple Podcasts → https://bit.ly/3GTqzDb Spotify → https://bit.ly/3AZ7P1b Amazon Music → https://bit.ly/3u9xssu In This Episode ▸ How are lenders finding success in today's market? (starts at 4 mins 15 secs) As president of a leading industry publication—and notably, one that hosts some of the fastest-growing industry events—Diego Sanchez has his finger on the pulse of which lenders are succeeding and which are falling behind. Hear his perspective on how the best lenders are navigating today’s market: containing costs, targeting niche growth opportunities, and leveraging data more effectively. ▸ The flight to quality (starts at 10 mins 10 secs) The post-COVID market has, perhaps more than any other, separated the best from the rest in mortgage and real estate. Diego argues that this separation has enabled growing lenders to attract and retain top talent while avoiding—or, in some cases, shedding—underperforming employees. ▸ The role of information in modern originations (starts at 14 mins 17 secs) The mortgage industry has an information problem. Why? In part because loan officers are failing to use the information at their fingertips to help clients make informed lending decisions. But more significantly, borrowers now have more access to information than ever before—yet much of it is preventing them from making the right decisions at the right time. That’s why HousingWire is committed to breaking down silos and providing our industry—and, through it, the American homeowner—with the full picture. ▸ Consequences of the NAR Settlement (starts at 23 mins 47 secs) Are we living in a new world following the official implementation of the NAR settlement? Diego breaks down what he sees as the most significant downstream effects of the settlement, including a reduction in buyer’s agent compensation and a subsequent downsizing of buyer’s agents nationwide. ▸ Innovation in home valuations and title insurance (starts at 31 mins 12 secs) The post-COVID housing market stress-tested every facet of the home loan origination process, including appraisals and title insurance, both of which were shown to be ripe for innovation. Diego shares his concerns about an aging appraisal workforce, the limited applicability of AVMs, and the mounting expense of title insurance. He also discusses opportunities to streamline those costs through regulatory changes and title insurance alternatives, including attorney opinion letters. ▸ The threat of servicers to non-portfolio originators (starts at 34 mins 50 secs) With the Fed expected to cut interest rates within weeks of this episode’s release, the industry is poised for a refinance boom. However, many lenders have begun to worry about losing business to major servicers, who have strategically built up their database marketing capabilities and in-house origination teams over the past several years to capitalize on rising consumer demand. Diego shares his thoughts on the threat servicers pose to originators and how originators can prevent churn from their books of business. ▸ Where Diego believes the industry is headed (starts at 42 mins 48 secs) Diego believes the industry is heading into calmer waters. As inventory normalizes, home value increases plateau, the likelihood of near-term rate cuts remains high, and inflation dips below 3%, he anticipates borrower demand will recover and, with shifting demographics, begin to grow. Additionally, a small refinance boom for late-cycle borrowers is on the horizon, which should provide lenders with a modest boost to reinvest in serving the next generations of American homebuyers over the next 15 to 20 years.

Where is the mortgage market headed? Mike Simonsen and the team at Altos Research can you tell you sooner than anyone. Since before the meltdown in 2008, Mike has been collecting, analyzing, and interpreting the most real-time real estate data available. And in this episode of Batting 1,000 with Dale Vermillion, he shares exactly what the data is indicating for future housing inventory levels, home prices, and more. Know exactly what to expect in today's mortgage market, and what you need to prepare for as the FED works to restore inventory from it's anemic levels.

And if the data holds, YoY inventory gains will be closer to 20% by EOY. ▸ Contextualizing new construction in the inventory calculation (starts at 19 mins 15 secs) When calculating. the actual supply of available homes for sale, understanding where in the construction process new construction listings are is absolutely critical. Mike explains why, and how the Altos Research team factors for currently unsellable new construction in their inventory calculations. ▸ The impact of the NAR settlement on listings data (starts at 21 mins 48 secs) In short, the impact of the NAR settlement has drastically altered listings data. Inventory, while growing, remains below normal market targets, buyer demand remains low as rates hover above 6%, and price reductions have continued to accelerate modestly as we approach the offseason. ▸ Proving value with Altos Market Reports (starts at 27 mins) In the aftermath of the NAR Settlement, buyers are demanding proof than ever of the value their real estate agents provide. Having access to white-labeled Altos Research market reports is just another way to prove the value of your representation, or to help your partners prove the value of their representation. ▸ Where home prices are headed in America (starts at 28 mins 38 secs) There are so many factors that drive home prices, incl. rates, demand, inventory and equity just to name a few. Based on his decades pf experience (and best-in-class data), Mike sees home prices continuing to grow modestly, with select markets experiencing temporary drawbacks that will mostly affect late-cycle borrowers. But nowhere in the data does Mike see indications of a crash in home prices—not even in the most reduced markets, like Austin, TX. ▸ Bullish and bearish indicators for mortgage (starts at 41 mins) If there's one reason for a bullish attitude toward today's mortgage market, it's LTVs. According to CoreLogic, the median equity in America right now is an astonishing $305,000. However, for late-cycle borrowers and current buyers, DTI ratios are becoming a serious concern. At 40%, the national median debt-to-income ratio is troubling, a potential reason to temper bullishness towards the current mortgage market.
