Ep. 91 - You're Invited to a BYOI (Bring Your Own Inventory): Real Estate Market Update

Want a home, but low inventory is slowing down your options? Build your own! In this episode, we delve into updates offering buyers a chance to buy, build, or close. We also shed light on the Hometown Heroes funding, a weekly cash injection for buyers in a scarce inventory market, and discuss the significance of the "5% is the new 3%" notion in today's housing landscape. If interest rates dip to 1%, a whopping 5 million more could afford a median-priced home. Daniel Halverson from Bank of England Mortgage shares insights on the housing market, the impact of interest rates on potential buyers, and a bold prediction for 2023's real estate scene.

Quotes:

"In a limited inventory market where we get more and more questions about, ‘Can I build, what are my options to build?’ It's something that a lot of lenders really don't participate in." - Daniel Halverson

 

"When you have 23 years of home buying experience with a 5% handle on it, that's where we have the lock-in effect." - Quinton Harris

 

"The challenge that real estate agents have right now is there's too many... There's over a million real estate agents nationwide. The other challenge for lenders: there are too many damn lenders. There's too many!" - Quinton Harris
