Tech Stack Analysis, LO Efficiency, Fair Lending Products; NAR is Lawyering Up; STRATMOR on Retaining Customers

Here in the Milwaukee area (yes, the autumn colors are stellar), I attended a Newrez joint venture event and one of the conversation topics (besides lenders either saying “no mas” and exiting or being purchased, more below, or NAR’s legal events, more below) is the changing landscape of down payments and down payment assistance programs. STRATMOR’s current blog is titled, “Mind the Down Payment”. Despite high mortgage rates and low buyer demand, home prices are still at record highs in many parts of the country leading to higher down payments. LendingTree analyzed data from more than 580,000 users of our platform who lived in one of the nation’s 50 largest metropolitan areas. A down payment on a home across the nation’s 50 largest metros averages $84,499. While down payments vary significantly by location, no metro in this year’s study has an average of less than $47,900. California is home to the three metros where down payments are highest, Buffalo, N.Y., Oklahoma City, and Virginia Beach, VA, have the lowest. (Today’s podcast can be found here, sponsored by Visio Lending and its top notch broker program. Visio is the nation's premier lender for buy and hold investors with over 2.5 billion closed loans for single-family rental properties, including vacation rentals. Listen to interview with Visio Lending’s Jeff Ball on trends in DSCR Loans.) Lender and Broker Software, Products, and Services They say money doesn’t grow on trees. But that hasn’t deterred the 48,000 people who have hammered coins into the Ingleton Coin Tree over the centuries in the hopes of receiving good fortune and wealth in return. Mortgage lenders searching for prosperity can save themselves a transatlantic flight and register instead for the latest installment in TrustEngine’s Path to Profitability webinar series. Ben Miller, EVP of nCino’s U.S. Mortgage Suite, will join Churchill Mortgage’s Matt Clarke and TrustEngine’s Dave Savage to share consultative selling and technology strategies used by today’s 9-figure producers to create modern, tailored experiences that resonate with clients. It’s free and it’s happening today at 2 pm ET. Save your spot here.
