- 0:16Speaker 1: studio with us as always. Brad Smith with Cross Country Mortgage.
- 0:20Speaker 2: What's that Brad? How are you, buddy man?
- 0:22Speaker 3: And a good been a good week. Yeah, you know,
- 0:24Speaker 3: we had a little bit of spring break action with
- 0:26Speaker 3: work on top of it, so all that kind of
- 0:28Speaker 3: good stuff, So all good over here.
- 0:30Speaker 2: It was.
- 0:30Speaker 1: We went down to thirty A for a couple of
- 0:33Speaker 1: days and it was really funny Monday morning. You could
- 0:37Speaker 1: tell that like everybody was a professional because every all
- 0:41Speaker 1: the all the parents, we got the kids set up
- 0:44Speaker 1: for the day, yeah, at the beach, and then the
- 0:47Speaker 1: majority of the parents got in front of their laptops. Yeah,
- 0:50Speaker 1: and we're was doing work until you know, I guess
- 0:52Speaker 1: about noon, one o'clock and and I ended up stopping
- 0:56Speaker 1: about three o'clock. I had I had some analysis to
- 1:00Speaker 1: to knock out. I had a deadline due, and I
- 1:03Speaker 1: was like, oh my gosh, like why why am I
- 1:06Speaker 1: doing this and not on the beach. And uh, but
- 1:09Speaker 1: that's just kind of a part of life. It is
- 1:12Speaker 1: of where I'm at right now. Yeah, yeah, And but
- 1:16Speaker 1: you know, the weather was great down in thirty A.
- 1:19Speaker 1: We went with some friends hung out at Seaside. I
- 1:22Speaker 1: love Seaside, by the way, but I don't love how
- 1:25Speaker 1: many people well are down there. I like it, you know,
- 1:28Speaker 1: my vibe is I think my vibe is more like
- 1:31Speaker 1: Cape Samblass or Saint George Island instead of Seaside. But
- 1:35Speaker 1: you know, I didn't really have a choice in this house.
- 1:39Speaker 1: We were a late add on, and we were grateful
- 1:42Speaker 1: for the opportunity to go.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Just for a yeah and hang on.
- 1:45Speaker 1: But but it's, man, it's crazy, like how many people
- 1:50Speaker 1: go down there for spring break and all the things.
- 1:53Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess we haven't been down there in a
- 1:56Speaker 3: while since since the oldest is out and been in car.
- 2:00Speaker 3: So since she's been there, we haven't worried as much
- 2:03Speaker 3: about having to get there for spring break because that
- 2:05Speaker 3: was a big deal in middle school in high school,
- 2:07Speaker 3: and so I guess maybe as the youngest gets older,
- 2:10Speaker 3: he'll be warning a little more thirty eight, But we
- 2:13Speaker 3: don't we don't get down that way much.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:15Speaker 3: Yeah, well we're Fort Morgan.
- 2:19Speaker 2: You know, like that's so chill. I did.
- 2:24Speaker 1: Well even with spring break. People are still out about
- 2:27Speaker 1: buying and selling houses.
- 2:29Speaker 3: Well as somebody that did not go anywhere for spring
- 2:31Speaker 3: break and stayed back. I did notice. So the town
- 2:34Speaker 3: didn't seem as empty as it does for some spring breaks.
- 2:37Speaker 3: Like a lot more people were out about, a lot
- 2:38Speaker 3: more people around. Saw a lot of kids out and about,
- 2:41Speaker 3: and so that meant phones were still running in, people
- 2:44Speaker 3: still looking at houses, and people are still are trips
- 2:48Speaker 3: as many trips, not as many trips.
- 2:50Speaker 1: Well we I mean again, we still see two through
- 2:55Speaker 1: four of us. We put under contract seven houses. There
- 2:58Speaker 1: you goes last week. So I want to shout out
- 3:00Speaker 1: to Edwin Selini he put two homes under contract, So Edwin,
- 3:05Speaker 1: great job, Tim Lance, H T. J. Cunningham, John Riddle,
- 3:09Speaker 1: Richie Olbley and Ashley Carr Stags. Congratulations on all of
- 3:15Speaker 1: your contracts this week.
- 3:18Speaker 2: Yeah. I love it.
- 3:19Speaker 1: Kept it moving, keep on rocking, keep on rocking. Sadly,
- 3:24Speaker 1: I did not put anything myself under contract this week,
- 3:27Speaker 1: but you know what, hey, we will next week. I
- 3:30Speaker 1: can already feel it.
- 3:31Speaker 3: It's coming.
- 3:32Speaker 2: It's it's gonna happen.
- 3:34Speaker 3: Things are already lining up, Things are already being penciled
- 3:36Speaker 3: in and starting to draw in some fill in the
- 3:40Speaker 3: blanks on some contracts. Yeah, start hitting ready.
- 3:44Speaker 1: I had one recently that that threw me a curveball.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Made an offer on a property and the folks were
- 3:51Speaker 1: just waiting on their pre approval letter and they went
- 3:53Speaker 1: and met with the bank and they were like, we
- 3:56Speaker 1: don't like the payment. So I had to rescind the offer.
- 4:00Speaker 1: And I hadn't done that in a while. I haven't
- 4:03Speaker 1: had to rend an offer. A little sticker shock, Yeah,
- 4:06Speaker 1: And so you know, I think if they would have
- 4:09Speaker 1: done it, I'm kind of you know, I'm glad the
- 4:11Speaker 1: way things happen the way they happen, right, because if
- 4:13Speaker 1: they would have got to pre and approve like four
- 4:15Speaker 1: weeks ago and today's interest rate, it looks a little
- 4:20Speaker 1: bit different in that payment.
- 4:21Speaker 3: I've got a different story that did not go as
- 4:23Speaker 3: well just due to that same same exact scents. It. So,
- 4:27Speaker 3: so we had a guy who've preapproved him back in January.
- 4:30Speaker 3: You know, I wanted to know kind of what rates
- 4:31Speaker 3: for us, say, hey, you know this is where we
- 4:33Speaker 3: kind of are today. You know, all this finally goes
- 4:36Speaker 3: under contract about eight days after the little all the
- 4:40Speaker 3: stuff starts in Iran. Well, what happens, fuel fuel barrel
- 4:43Speaker 3: barrel of fuel goes up. Of oil goes up, so
- 4:46Speaker 3: do mortgage rates. So when he calls me back after
- 4:50Speaker 3: going now he gets under contract and want to know
- 4:52Speaker 3: what are rates today, Well, at the time they're they're
- 4:55Speaker 3: up about three eighths from when the last time I
- 4:57Speaker 3: talked to him.
- 4:58Speaker 2: So that means, well, now I got it.
- 4:59Speaker 3: I I want to start I got to look around
- 5:01Speaker 3: a little bit, so it starts calling calling, But then
- 5:03Speaker 3: you know, as people start going back and forth, they
- 5:05Speaker 3: can match or beat just about anything. As you start
- 5:07Speaker 3: getting it out there. Well, by the time he had
- 5:10Speaker 3: found somebody that had something lower and then came back
- 5:13Speaker 3: to me, it was already up another quarter percent on
- 5:16Speaker 3: the interest rate, And so I was nowhere even. I mean,
- 5:18Speaker 3: I couldn't even I couldn't even like say anything to
- 5:21Speaker 3: like keep it even even. I mean, it was so
- 5:24Speaker 3: material on the payment difference, it was like that ended
- 5:27Speaker 3: up being like zero point seventy five percent of the
- 5:29Speaker 3: interest rate difference from when I first sent it to
- 5:31Speaker 3: where to when I was going back and forth, and
- 5:33Speaker 3: by the time I was like, it keeps moving, so
- 5:36Speaker 3: if we're not I need to know. So I ended
- 5:38Speaker 3: up not getting the deal after what since January. But
- 5:41Speaker 3: I mean, it's just but but the spin of that
- 5:44Speaker 3: is I realized there's people that are having the same
- 5:46Speaker 3: exact experience with somebody else and that I made up
- 5:49Speaker 3: getting them. So it's kind of a it's a it's
- 5:51Speaker 3: a revolving door of one after when you have something
- 5:53Speaker 3: this drastic change in the markets, that's that's very unforeseen.
- 5:58Speaker 2: That's the problem.
- 6:00Speaker 1: The problem is whenever there's something like this, rates go
- 6:04Speaker 1: up super fast.
- 6:05Speaker 2: Super fast, and then they take forever to come down forever.
- 6:08Speaker 1: So it's just like, ah, man, you gotta be kidding me.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Just when I'm like, you know what, I'll tell you
- 6:15Speaker 1: what if this would have happened in September October, like
- 6:20Speaker 1: it would probably shut.
- 6:22Speaker 2: Down the market. Yeah, yes, yes, it.
- 6:25Speaker 1: Has slowed us down just a hair just because it's
- 6:29Speaker 1: selling season. So that's the only that's the only reason
- 6:33Speaker 1: we've gotten by I think right now and.
- 6:35Speaker 3: When we get to the updates, and I'll even pitch
- 6:37Speaker 3: this a little bit before we get into the game,
- 6:38Speaker 3: and I'll give the rules in a second. But you know, so,
- 6:40Speaker 3: I mean when I was saying a couple of weeks ago,
- 6:43Speaker 3: you know, we're saying around six, it's still some of
- 6:45Speaker 3: the fives. Now I'm saying six and a halves miss
- 6:48Speaker 3: six and a halves even a little above it, you know,
- 6:50Speaker 3: And so and we're looking at I mean, we're looking
- 6:53Speaker 3: at about about a half percent difference in the actual
- 6:55Speaker 3: interest rate in the past two weeks based on some
- 6:58Speaker 3: of this stuff that's going on. So so I mean,
- 7:01Speaker 3: I mean that that adds up quick sure when you
- 7:04Speaker 3: start trying to you know, when we've been begging for
- 7:06Speaker 3: an eighth here and eight there, like you said, it
- 7:07Speaker 3: takes forever for it to come back down, and then
- 7:10Speaker 3: it just jumped right back up. And so so that's
- 7:12Speaker 3: what we're battling through. But I don't I mean, people
- 7:15Speaker 3: are still in the market. Everything's seems to still be going,
- 7:19Speaker 3: and it is, but there is a little bit of
- 7:20Speaker 3: sticker shock when when everything was kind of down there
- 7:23Speaker 3: for a month month and a half and we just
- 7:25Speaker 3: kind of threw it all off the window. So that's rights,
- 7:28Speaker 3: but the technicals are still there, so everything looks good.
- 7:30Speaker 3: Once once the old price is kind of level off,
- 7:33Speaker 3: everything should be good. So yeah, the technicals as far
- 7:36Speaker 3: as inflation and jobs still show that rate should be
- 7:38Speaker 3: coming down. So we just got to get back to
- 7:39Speaker 3: a normal normal.
- 7:41Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go. Stuff sounds good. All right.
- 7:44Speaker 1: Well, I think it's time to talk talk about the game.
- 7:47Speaker 1: And we've got a couple of open houses this weekend,
- 7:52Speaker 1: you know a little bit later on this afternoon, so yeah,
- 7:56Speaker 1: and we're going to talk about I think we've got
- 7:58Speaker 1: one coming soon that we're gonna talk about as well.
- 7:59Speaker 1: So yeah, give us.
- 8:01Speaker 3: The rules, all right, Gus, he's going to go through
- 8:03Speaker 3: the properties they've got that are open houses are coming soon,
- 8:05Speaker 3: so he's going to go through some of the key
- 8:07Speaker 3: features of each property. But the main thing I need
- 8:09Speaker 3: is what is the list price the purchase price of
- 8:11Speaker 3: that home. I will then give a potential down payment
- 8:13Speaker 3: that a borrower may make on that home, and then
- 8:15Speaker 3: Gusty and John Mounts will guess the thirty year fixed
- 8:19Speaker 3: monthly principal interest only payment.
- 8:22Speaker 2: So that's all there is to it.

- 17:01Speaker 1: Been you, know with the spring break in the real estate,
- 17:05Speaker 1: world usually it kind of slows down a little. Bit
- 17:07Speaker 1: BUT i think with the cost of things going, up
- 17:11Speaker 1: maybe not as many people have gone out of town
- 17:14Speaker 1: and that might be part of the reason why we
- 17:17Speaker 1: may have been busier.
- 17:18Speaker 2: This Past what are we, Thinking, Brad.
- 17:21Speaker 3: YEAH i mean. IT i MEAN i didn't know that
- 17:22Speaker 3: y'all had, been you, know having a pretty good week on,
- 17:25Speaker 3: contracts you, know BUT i had noticed it just seemed
- 17:28Speaker 3: like there was more more people around that maybe stayed around,
- 17:32Speaker 3: again but people were getting stuff. DONE i felt LIKE i,
- 17:35Speaker 3: had you, know just a, normal normal week of phone
- 17:37Speaker 3: calls and different stuff going. On SO i didn't really
- 17:40Speaker 3: feel much. Different and so but you, know the conversation
- 17:45Speaker 3: that we're all that That i'm dealing with the most
- 17:47Speaker 3: right now is you, know we're rates and what are
- 17:49Speaker 3: they doing and how long they're going to be, up
- 17:51Speaker 3: and so.
- 17:51Speaker 1: Can we can we talk a little bit about you,
- 17:54Speaker 1: know the last thirty days have seen a big difference in.
- 17:57Speaker 1: Rates can we talk about what it looked like thirty
- 17:59Speaker 1: days ago and what it looks like, now and how
- 18:02Speaker 1: the impact of the.
- 18:06Speaker 2: Whatever we're calling it in iranp.
- 18:08Speaker 3: Is, Yeah i'm calling. It it's a. WAR i Think
- 18:12Speaker 3: i've seen war enough now WHERE i can call it a.
- 18:14Speaker 3: War It's i'm going with. War we can't we can't
- 18:17Speaker 3: get oil moved like we want to across certain areas over.
- 18:22Speaker 3: There the you, know the cost of a barrel of
- 18:27Speaker 3: oil has skyrocketed over the past two or three weeks
- 18:30Speaker 3: because of, it and with that means the tenure treasures
- 18:34Speaker 3: jumped up with, it and so has the kind of
- 18:36Speaker 3: the our mortgage rates as the point.
- 18:39Speaker 2: Four on the ten year treasury.
- 18:41Speaker 3: Point four and then mortgage. RATES i, Mean i'm calling
- 18:44Speaker 3: it like you, know about six point about about maybe
- 18:47Speaker 3: point six two five on the interest, rates a little
- 18:49Speaker 3: over a half percent interest rate on your average thirty
- 18:52Speaker 3: year fixed right.
- 18:53Speaker 2: Now that has changed in the last thirty.
- 18:56Speaker 3: In that last thirty, DAYS i mean, AGAIN i, AGAIN
- 18:58Speaker 3: i mean the same exact BORROWER i was sending something
- 19:02Speaker 3: out at five point nine to nine thirty days, ago
- 19:05Speaker 3: thirty days ago, even, yeah not even quite thirty days.
- 19:09Speaker 3: Ago and then then it, was you, know a week
- 19:11Speaker 3: and a half after that was six point three seven
- 19:13Speaker 3: five ish give or. Take and then now we're sitting
- 19:15Speaker 3: around six point six two five give her you, know
- 19:18Speaker 3: depending on a bunch of other. Factors but, YEAH i
- 19:20Speaker 3: mean that's that gives you a pretty good idea of
- 19:22Speaker 3: kind of where it's gone the last four.
- 19:24Speaker 1: Weeks, now we do do a lot of stuff with
- 19:27Speaker 1: LIKE fha and V, a, right so we're seeing that
- 19:30Speaker 1: hover around six.
- 19:31Speaker 3: About, six and so again it's it's almost just you,
- 19:33Speaker 3: KNOW i call it, like you, know really about a
- 19:35Speaker 3: half percent is where we've really. Gone it's you really
- 19:38Speaker 3: just want to call the thirty year average in each.
- 19:41Speaker 3: Boat so you, know if we were, saying you, know
- 19:44Speaker 3: government loans around five and a, half conventional around six
- 19:47Speaker 3: a couple of weeks, ago Now i'm just saying about
- 19:49Speaker 3: six for the government loans and around six and a
- 19:51Speaker 3: half ish give or take on the on the conventional
- 19:54Speaker 3: stuff right. Now so SO i mean it's still. There
- 19:57Speaker 3: but again it goes back to you, know when do
- 20:01Speaker 3: you want to get in the, market, RIGHT i, mean you,
- 20:03Speaker 3: know the housing stuff still. There people are still buying. Houses,
- 20:06Speaker 3: again it's still not as high as we've seen over
- 20:08Speaker 3: the past few. Years so really just kind of back
- 20:10Speaker 3: to where we, Were just kind of back to where
- 20:12Speaker 3: we were more than. Anything, besides you, know we kept, Thinking,
- 20:15Speaker 3: rach we're gonna keep coming down until we had an
- 20:17Speaker 3: instant that that we couldn't predict or no models or
- 20:20Speaker 3: futures you, know had had built in. There so, AGAIN
- 20:23Speaker 3: i still think we've got a lot of good technicals
- 20:25Speaker 3: that are showing that rates should continue to come down
- 20:29Speaker 3: when we're whenever this is, settled and we've got a
- 20:31Speaker 3: better idea of what the oil prices are going to
- 20:33Speaker 3: do and and all, that all that good. Stuff so
- 20:36Speaker 3: so that's that's kind of what we're dealing, with and of
- 20:38Speaker 3: course that's that's the topic of most of the. Conversations
- 20:41Speaker 3: but but, YEAH i, MEAN.
- 20:43Speaker 2: I still feel good about where we.
- 20:45Speaker 3: Are it's just the. Rates rates being down, help oh
- 20:48Speaker 3: helps a, Lot and so the little bit you, know
- 20:51Speaker 3: it does siphon off a little, bit, Right, WELL.
- 20:54Speaker 1: I can tell you in the real estate sales part
- 20:57Speaker 1: of the, world you, know really the next three weeks
- 21:00Speaker 1: is going to be probably our biggest listing time of the.
- 21:03Speaker 1: Year and that's not just our, team that's just our.
- 21:05Speaker 1: Industry and you, know it kind of it kicks off
- 21:09Speaker 1: at the beginning Of, march where you, know more houses
- 21:12Speaker 1: go on the. MARKET i, mean we talked about our
- 21:14Speaker 1: team put seven homes in our contract over the past.
- 21:16Speaker 1: Week you, know we're gonna End it looks like we're
- 21:20Speaker 1: gonna End march and this first quarter ahead of what
- 21:26Speaker 1: we were last, year which is, good you, know year over,
- 21:30Speaker 1: year and then we're you, know rolling Into april and
- 21:34Speaker 1: we're looking. Good, now could that start changing with everything
- 21:39Speaker 1: that's going? On, sure, well rates going, up BUT i
- 21:42Speaker 1: mean this time last, year rates were right around this,
- 21:45Speaker 1: Part So i'm not necessarily concerned about. THAT i don't
- 21:48Speaker 1: think THE i think it like a half a percent
- 21:51Speaker 1: increase obviously makes people kind of take a step, back
- 21:54Speaker 1: but people are ready to, buy and there you, know
- 21:57Speaker 1: they're they're going to buy no matter, what and then
- 21:58Speaker 1: they'll refinance later.
- 21:59Speaker 2: On BUT.
- 22:02Speaker 1: I will tell you WHAT i do think is interesting
- 22:04Speaker 1: IS i feel like there are more good buys and
- 22:06Speaker 1: good opportunities popping up RIGHT i put a house under
- 22:10Speaker 1: contract this past week that was off the. Market that
- 22:14Speaker 1: was WHAT i thought was a really good, deal AND
- 22:18Speaker 1: i bought another one put under. CONTRACT i threw out an.
- 22:21Speaker 1: OFFER i didn't think that they would take, it and,
- 22:23Speaker 1: bam they took. It AND i was, Like, OKAY i
- 22:25Speaker 1: Guess i'm buying a. House so you, know people are you,
- 22:29Speaker 1: KNOW i feel like in times like, this depending on the,
- 22:32Speaker 1: area they might be a little bit more. Motivated so
- 22:35Speaker 1: if you're a, buyer we might be able to do
- 22:37Speaker 1: a little bit more. Negotiating if you're a, seller you,
- 22:41Speaker 1: know it's it's there are still multiple offer situations depending
- 22:45Speaker 1: on the. Area but most of the most of the
- 22:48Speaker 1: stuff that we are seeing is our days on market are.
- 22:50Speaker 1: Increasing so it's gonna be interesting and like the next three,
- 22:54Speaker 1: WEEKS i think it's going to be very very important
- 22:57Speaker 1: and vital to to what's going to. Happen and a
- 23:00Speaker 1: lot of this is gonna is gonna be like what's
