Welcome to The Chrisman Commentary, your go-to daily mortgage news podcast, where industry insights meet expert analysis. Hosted by Robbie Chrisman, this podcast delivers the latest updates on mortgage rates, capital markets, and the forces shaping the housing finance landscape. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just looking to stay informed, you'll get clear, concise breakdowns of market trends and economic shifts that impact the mortgage world.
In today’s episode, we dive into some mailbag questions I've been receiving from around the mortgage industry. Plus, Robbie sits down with Yardi’s Doug Ressler for a discussion on the post-pandemic structural shifts driving affordable housing construction to outpace overall apartment development, how regional differences reflect policy and migration trends, and what distinguishes metros that successfully deliver projects from those that stall. And we close by looking at the strains impacting the domestic economy.
