Co-issue, eNote, Correspondent, Cust. Experience Tools; CFPB News; FHFA Delays DTI Shift; Bank News and MBS Prices

Have to buy something for someone in your life who has everything? If they’re a basketball fan, how about food smoked with the same type of wood used by NCAA basketball courts? News can be thrown at our biz has no rhyme or reason. Yesterday was one of those days, including the FHFA’s temporary hold on DTI pricing, detailed below. If you’d like some thoughts on the housing market after Silicon Valley Bank’s collapse, here you go, care of MCT. Along those lines, this Friday, “The Rundown” features Keith Little, President of Centennial Bank (Arkansas) discussing the bank failures from a banker’s perspective. Were regulators, auditors, and examiners doing their jobs? Speaking of regulators, my cat Myrtle, who is not a big fan of the CFPB, no doubt took note of yesterday’s announcement that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has launched an inquiry into companies that track and collect information on people’s personal lives. Some would wonder, isn’t that every government agency? And how ‘bout this: Is CNBC “recommending” lenders now? Who will read the warning at the top? “Select independently determines what we cover and recommend. We earn a commission from affiliate partners on many offers and links.

Will a Silver Tsunami Change the 2024 Housing Market? Have you ever heard the term “Silver Tsunami” and wondered what it's all about? If so, that might be because there’s been lot of talk about it online recently. Let's dive into what it is and why it won't drastically impact the housing market. What Does Silver Tsunami Mean? A recent article from HousingWire calls it: “. . . a colloquialism referring to aging Americans changing their housing arrangements to accommodate aging . . .” The thought is that as baby boomers grow older, a significant number will start downsizing their homes. Considering how large that generation is, if these moves happened in a big wave, it would affect the housing market by causing a significant uptick in the number of larger homes for sale. That influx of homes coming onto the market would impact the balance of supply and demand and more. The concept makes sense in theory, but will it happen? And if so, when? Why It Won’t Have a Huge Impact on the Housing Market in 2024 Experts say, so far, a silver tsunami hasn’t happened – and it probably won't anytime soon. According to that same article from HousingWire: “. . . the silver tsunami’s transformative potential for the U.S. housing market has not yet materialized in any meaningful way, and few expect it to anytime soon.” Clearly, not every baby boomer is planning to sell or move – and even those who do won’t do it all at once. Instead, it will be more gradual, happening slowly over time. If you’re worried about a Silver Tsunami shaking up the housing market, don’t be. Any impact from baby boomers moving will be gradual over many years. Fleming sums it up best: “Demographic trends, they don't tsunami. They trickle.” #realestate #homeownership #homebuying www.DanFreshley.com
