- 0:35Speaker 1: I am doing fantastic, So I appreciate you coming. Having
- 0:38Speaker 1: the extra person makes this a lot more fun, and
- 0:42Speaker 1: the game is really tough with only one person. John's
- 0:45Speaker 1: playing solitaire, I guess I should say, but uh so,
- 0:49Speaker 1: just yeah, so, Jase, we'll give you a little rundown too,
- 0:51Speaker 1: in for our listeners kind of what we're gonna do today.
- 0:53Speaker 1: So we'll we'll talk a little bit about market and
- 0:55Speaker 1: kind of what we're seeing and and just kind of
- 0:57Speaker 1: what's going on in life for what's how we've gotten
- 0:59Speaker 1: to where we are. We'll get all your deepest, darkest
- 1:02Speaker 1: secrets an hour two. I'm just kidding it an hour two.
- 1:04Speaker 1: And but the main thing, our main things. We're going
- 1:08Speaker 1: to talk about some of the awesome properties y'all have
- 1:10Speaker 1: with Gusty Gillis Group, some open houses, new listings. But
- 1:13Speaker 1: when we do that, what do we get to do? John?
- 1:15Speaker 1: We get to play the game? The game, And so
- 1:18Speaker 1: when we play the game's I have a lot of
- 1:20Speaker 1: fun because I don't have to actually guess. So like
- 1:22Speaker 1: even though it's I get to use the calculator, everybody
- 1:24Speaker 1: else has to guess.
- 1:25Speaker 5: And you're going to be way ahead of me because
- 1:27Speaker 5: you actually do this for a living, whereas I've just
- 1:29Speaker 5: bought a couple of houses somewhere in my life, so
- 1:30Speaker 5: I don't know what I'm doing.
- 1:31Speaker 3: Yeah, you're a numbers person, No I am not.
- 1:34Speaker 1: See she's a people person. She knows properties and those
- 1:38Speaker 1: people hate does bring numbers. There's too many of them.
- 1:41Speaker 1: That's why cheating. He's the calculator. So anyway. So I'll
- 1:45Speaker 1: go through the properties, but I'll give you everybody a
- 1:47Speaker 1: little rundown of what we do for the game if
- 1:49Speaker 1: you haven't listened to form for Chasing, so she understands
- 1:51Speaker 1: what we're doing. So since Gussie's not here, I get
- 1:54Speaker 1: to read through y'all's awesome properties that are going to
- 1:56Speaker 1: be We have one open house today and we'll get
- 1:58Speaker 1: to and then two coming uns. But what we've got is, well,
- 2:03Speaker 1: I'll go through some of the descriptions and the key
- 2:04Speaker 1: pieces of information on the property, but at the very
- 2:08Speaker 1: end will give the most important thing, and that is
- 2:09Speaker 1: the list price of the house. And once I give
- 2:12Speaker 1: the list price, I'm going to give a potential down
- 2:15Speaker 1: payment that a borrower may make if they were buying
- 2:17Speaker 1: that house. And then John and Jason will get to
- 2:19Speaker 1: guests the thirty year fixed monthly payment principal interest only
- 2:23Speaker 1: just the monthly payment on a thirty year fixed loan
- 2:25Speaker 1: on what you've got to fire out with the loan
- 2:27Speaker 1: amount and quick calculate and make your best guestiment on
- 2:30Speaker 1: what the mortgage payment is. So we'll have three today
- 2:33Speaker 1: and then you know, the winner gets a round of applause.
- 2:36Speaker 2: You know, you used to give give the winner the
- 2:38Speaker 2: post it note that he used to do the math.
- 2:40Speaker 1: If you beat Gusty, I'll give you the official scoring
- 2:43Speaker 1: sheet that I've jotted on and I'll sign it to
- 2:45Speaker 1: affirm it. But when Gussy's not here now, it's just
- 2:47Speaker 1: like kind of the beat the realtor. You have a
- 2:49Speaker 1: pretty good record against the guests, though, John, I go,
- 2:51Speaker 1: I gotta call that out a pretty good record. Again,
- 2:54Speaker 1: I've had five years of experience. You are in this
- 2:57Speaker 1: business at this point, John, mostly losing to Gusty, But yeah, yeah,
- 3:01Speaker 1: can I.
- 3:01Speaker 3: Do the price is right thing? Where he goes first
- 3:03Speaker 3: and then I guess, like a dollar over?
- 3:05Speaker 1: You can't with two people.
- 3:06Speaker 5: Really, what it is is the first person sets the
- 3:09Speaker 5: place and then you're in the second person's goal is
- 3:11Speaker 5: do I go above?
- 3:12Speaker 1: Do I think it's more or less? Yeah? It's you're
- 3:14Speaker 1: You're right. Where's no prices right? You can't be too high,
- 3:17Speaker 1: you can't be too low. If you want to go
- 3:18Speaker 1: a dollar more, dollar less, doesn't matter. I have suggested
- 3:21Speaker 1: us go high or lower when it's just you and Gussie.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Sometimes that's essentially what we're trying to, you know, figure out.
- 3:26Speaker 2: I try and put I try and actually, you know,
- 3:27Speaker 2: give a.
- 3:28Speaker 1: Good John's good. John does a good job.
- 3:30Speaker 5: And by good he means bad because sometimes I'm off
- 3:32Speaker 5: by like a factor of ten. Sometimes he said, you
- 3:36Speaker 5: want to rethink that number.
- 3:37Speaker 1: Yeah, well, the good part was relative to he's good
- 3:40Speaker 1: about giving a lot of effort into it. I didn't
- 3:42Speaker 1: mean that was good with what his results were coming in.
- 3:44Speaker 1: I want to play the game. Have the spirit of
- 3:46Speaker 1: the game. Yes, he does a great job, all right
- 3:48Speaker 1: with that, with the spirit of the game. Okay, we're
- 3:51Speaker 1: gonna get into it. Let's just go ahead and jump
- 3:53Speaker 1: into the first property. There you go, that's the properties
- 3:57Speaker 1: printed them out. This first one is a town home.
- 4:02Speaker 1: It's over in Ashwood Cove in Birmingham. It's in the
- 4:04Speaker 1: subdivision Savannah Village. It's Grantswood Elementary School. It's Irondale. It's
- 4:09Speaker 1: a really pretty it's Shades Valley High School. This one's
- 4:12Speaker 1: actually listed by Gusty and then it's going to be
- 4:17Speaker 1: open today from two to four, so go check it
- 4:21Speaker 1: out again. This is a really cool looking townhouse. It's
- 4:26Speaker 1: it's a lot on it's on a slab. It's not
- 4:28Speaker 1: too I mean, it's if there's not a it's not
- 4:30Speaker 1: a huge tall building, there's not a lot of upkeep,
- 4:33Speaker 1: but it's really pretty curb appeal. This is a really
- 4:37Speaker 1: cool one. Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, y'all U,
- 4:39Speaker 1: two bedroom, two baths, thirteen hundred square feet for two
- 4:43Speaker 1: fifty over on Ashwood Cove. Again, this is this is
- 4:46Speaker 1: a very pretty looking townhome. I'm suggest going to check
- 4:50Speaker 1: it out again from two to four today, So two
- 4:52Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand for the first one, John, two
- 4:54Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand. I have made it. These prices
- 4:58Speaker 1: today are got a pretty good run, so I've I've
- 5:01Speaker 1: made the down payment percentage a little easier for our
- 5:03Speaker 1: guests than for John today. So we're gonna do ten
- 5:05Speaker 1: percent down, ten percent down on two hundred and fifty
- 5:10Speaker 1: thousand dollar list price. John will get to guests first,
- 5:12Speaker 1: since you're our guest chasing, and then and then you'll
- 5:15Speaker 1: get to go after John.
- 5:16Speaker 5: So thirty year fixed, thirty year fixed, ten percent down,
- 5:19Speaker 5: sit down, So that's be twenty five thousand dollars down,
- 5:22Speaker 5: So we're really financing two twenty five So.
- 5:25Speaker 1: Old job doing easy for you today. Made the math
- 5:27Speaker 1: easy to say, I appreciate it.
- 5:29Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 5:29Speaker 5: I'm gonna but the thing is, we don't know the rates.
- 5:32Speaker 5: A little guessing here, so I'm gonna say.
- 5:36Speaker 1: Thirteen fifty thirteen fifty for John.
- 5:39Speaker 2: She's got a smile on her face, so I think
- 5:41Speaker 2: she knows that I don't.
- 5:42Speaker 4: I'm thinking I'm gonna say fourteen fifty fourteen fifty. All right,
- 5:53Speaker 4: Well it sounds too high, though it is.
- 5:56Speaker 1: It's a little high. So the actual payment was thirteen
- 5:58Speaker 1: eighty five. John does get real one. But that was
- 6:00Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, I was really.
- 6:03Speaker 4: Think I was trying to think of other houses I've
- 6:05Speaker 4: done that.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Yeah, No, that that was a very good, very good friend. John.
- 6:09Speaker 1: That was really good for you. I know, I mean
- 6:11Speaker 1: where myself. Well he was thirty five, but still but
- 6:19Speaker 1: but I mean he you know, sometimes he's you know anyone, John, John.
- 6:23Speaker 5: What it is, and I've said this before, is if
- 6:25Speaker 5: it's about the price I used to buying a house,
- 6:29Speaker 5: and I understand.
- 6:30Speaker 4: That's what I was.
- 6:31Speaker 1: We get like a ten million dollar house. I'm like,
- 6:33Speaker 1: I don't know, ten million dollars. I don't know what
- 6:35Speaker 1: that is. Yeah, too much? Uh from from me? The
- 6:41Speaker 1: next we've got two more properties, and these two are
- 6:43Speaker 1: I'm using them since we're doing it part of the game.
- 6:45Speaker 1: They're not listing yet, they're they're coming soons. But we've
- 6:48Speaker 1: got one on uh four zero one seven Flower Street
- 6:52Speaker 1: in Adamsville. That's minor high school, minor school systems. It's
- 6:56Speaker 1: three bedroom, one bath, one thousand and fifty square feet.
- 6:59Speaker 1: This is a really well kept up home I think
- 7:02Speaker 1: it's got a lot of potential there. This one's listed
- 7:04Speaker 1: by John Michael Brannon. This one's coming soon, so we'll
- 7:07Speaker 1: have more details about it coming and I'm sure they'll
- 7:10Speaker 1: have it open in the next week or two, so
- 7:12Speaker 1: be on the lookout for that. But but it is
- 7:14Speaker 1: coming soon. So if you're looking for something, whether it's
- 7:16Speaker 1: a first starter home or an investment property, this might
- 7:19Speaker 1: be a really good option of forty seventeen Flower Street
- 7:22Speaker 1: in Adamsville. Again, the thousand square feet, three bedrooms, one bath.
- 7:27Speaker 1: List price on this is only one hundred and fifty
- 7:28Speaker 1: thousand dollars one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. And again
- 7:33Speaker 1: that's John Michael brand and has that listed. And again
- 7:36Speaker 1: we're gonna stick with ten percent down, ten percent down
- 7:39Speaker 1: on one hundred and fifty thousand dollar list price chasing.
- 7:43Speaker 1: You get to go first, it wrote, we wrotetate, so
- 7:46Speaker 1: you've got one time. You got to set the bar.
- 7:49Speaker 1: She's like, wait a minute, I don't he didn't say
- 7:51Speaker 1: anything yet.
- 7:51Speaker 5: She's like, still ten percent, down right, still ten percent,
- 7:53Speaker 5: So you can assume it'll be less than the last one.
- 8:02Speaker 4: I'm gonna say.
- 8:04Speaker 1: Eight hundred, eight hundred.
- 8:07Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like.
- 8:08Speaker 3: I'm not good at this game at all, Like this
- 8:12Speaker 3: is only the second one.
- 8:15Speaker 5: You were actually really close in the last week. Both
- 8:17Speaker 5: of us were closely. I was just slightly closer.
- 8:19Speaker 1: I think she thinks she's supposed to be like getting
- 8:21Speaker 1: it right, like I mean, I mean like, I mean,
- 8:25Speaker 1: I think she feels like she's supposed to get that
- 8:27Speaker 1: ful answer, which has happened what twice in five years?
- 8:29Speaker 1: I think the exact number, Like one.
- 8:31Speaker 5: Time it happened, and it was because it was the
- 8:33Speaker 5: frequency of the radio. I guessed nine sixty because it's
- 8:35Speaker 5: a frequency the A side, and it turned out if
- 8:37Speaker 5: it was nine sixty.
- 8:38Speaker 1: Yeah, So I mean so so yeah, I mean I'm.
- 8:40Speaker 4: Way way way off of what I just said.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Eight hundred. She's she's on an eight hundred dollars.
- 8:46Speaker 5: Bus, it's so not rock it's one, it's one fifty.
- 8:50Speaker 5: But we're really fifteen percent down.
- 8:52Speaker 1: Johns running numbers now going likens not far off.
- 8:54Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it's actually he has.
- 8:56Speaker 4: A calculator behind.
- 8:57Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm holding a pant.
- 8:59Speaker 5: Yeah he hasn't I write down, Okay, I'm just taking
- 9:02Speaker 5: notes so I can remember numbers. You said eight hundred,
- 9:06Speaker 5: I'm gonna say.
- 9:09Speaker 1: All right, well that was almost like a higher lower,
- 9:11Speaker 1: but the actual payment was eight hundred and thirty one
- 9:13Speaker 1: dollars one round two. I'm over here looking at her
- 9:19Speaker 1: like that's pretty good.
- 9:21Speaker 4: But I also thought you were trying to make me
- 9:23Speaker 4: feel better about No.
- 9:24Speaker 1: No, I mean you no, no, you're you're You're all
- 9:26Speaker 1: over it. You're doing great, all right, So that was see,
- 9:29Speaker 1: But I'm used when it's over that, Gus, he's going
- 9:31Speaker 1: to read the properties. Guss, he's not here.
- 9:33Speaker 5: So and that right now, that means that we're in
- 9:36Speaker 5: we're in a dead heat here.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Only three properties. We got the last one coming up
- 9:40Speaker 1: in this the rubber match. This will tell you who
- 9:42Speaker 1: wins today. The pressure is mounting. I'm nervous, the tension
- 9:46Speaker 1: in this room right now with a knife. Hut it
- 9:48Speaker 1: with a knife. Oh, this house looks familiar anyway, Maybe
- 9:52Speaker 1: it's not all right. Maybe we'll hear my cousin's house.
- 9:55Speaker 1: Got a roof, got some windows, a door. It actually well,
- 9:57Speaker 1: I looked at like, I think it's my cousin's house,
- 9:59Speaker 1: and I look in that division that's actually where he lives.
- 10:01Speaker 1: So kind he's been talking about it. Anyways, Maybe I'll
- 10:06Speaker 1: have to find out. But we're not gonna say his names.
- 10:08Speaker 1: I don't believe that. It's just probably not. He's got
- 10:11Speaker 1: nothing to do with this. Nine five to Tulip Poplar Lane,
- 10:16Speaker 1: nine five to two Tulip Poplar Lane. That's a mouthful,
- 10:20Speaker 1: but pretty pretty cool coming soon. This is in Hoover.
- 10:23Speaker 1: It's in River Chase. Y'all, River Chase is awesome. It's
- 10:26Speaker 1: over a half acre lot.

- 10:32Speaker 1: square feet liverble square feets two two hundred and fifty nine.
- 10:34Speaker 1: It's four bedrooms, three and a half baths. Again, it's
- 10:38Speaker 1: in River Chase. Here at Spain Park High Schools. This
- 10:41Speaker 1: one's listed by Kyle Bedgood And again it's coming. What's
- 10:45Speaker 1: gonna be listed is coming soon. This is a great

- 11:09Speaker 1: for seventy five, that's a great house. Give college shout
- 11:13Speaker 1: and check it out. Four seventy five. We're sticking with
- 11:16Speaker 1: ten percent down, taking them ten percent down, but we're
- 11:19Speaker 1: back to John.
- 11:20Speaker 5: So that'd be like forty seven thousand dollars off, so
- 11:23Speaker 5: you're you're financing him like four hundred and thirty five
- 11:27Speaker 5: is So I'm gonna say, I have no idea three
- 11:32Speaker 5: thousand dollars.
- 11:35Speaker 2: I gotta do is figure out higher a lower and
- 11:36Speaker 2: you win, and you know, I don't know what I'm doing.
- 11:40Speaker 4: So I'm gonna say two thousand and fifty, like twenty.
- 11:48Speaker 1: Fifty, two thousand and fifty, yeah, twenty fifty, twenty fifty.
- 11:54Speaker 1: I was trying to talk to you on a moving
- 11:56Speaker 1: the five over one spot. The actual payment was two
- 11:59Speaker 1: thousand and six hundred thirty two dollars. John wins round three.
- 12:03Speaker 2: But in all fairness, you did e really.
- 12:07Speaker 1: I mean that was right in the middle. Twenty six
- 12:08Speaker 1: was right in the middle of I didn't know what

- 14:53Speaker 1: bit about kind of what she's seeing and kind of like,
- 14:55Speaker 1: you know, her, a little bit of history in real

- 15:16Speaker 1: here with Cross Country Mortgage is filling in for him.
- 15:18Speaker 1: And then in my seat taking care of the help
- 15:21Speaker 1: and out role is Chasing, Hebling Chasing. How are you.
- 15:24Speaker 4: I'm good.
- 15:25Speaker 1: I'm doing awesome. Chasing did great. The first time she's
- 15:28Speaker 1: for the mortgage game. She came up to the hair
- 15:30Speaker 1: short John Mounce. But it was a very well fought battle.
- 15:33Speaker 2: I thought, just you, I did not throw that game.
- 15:36Speaker 1: I actually gave it back. That was that was that was,
- 15:39Speaker 1: That was John's effort all right, and so thank you
- 15:43Speaker 1: so much for coming to everybody. So, when Gussy's gonna
- 15:46Speaker 1: be out and I'm and I'm you know, usually co
- 15:48Speaker 1: hosting her over on the you know, kind of chiming
- 15:50Speaker 1: in from the from the side seats. But when Gussy's
- 15:53Speaker 1: not gonna be here, he'll kind of pitch it back
- 15:54Speaker 1: to some members on the team and say, hey, does
- 15:56Speaker 1: anybody want to go Dodo radio with Brad tomorrow? And
- 15:59Speaker 1: voluntary and well, more times than not, nobody volunteers, and
- 16:02Speaker 1: so it's uh, I'll get crickets and I'll start being like,
- 16:05Speaker 1: it's a lot of fun, we have a good time.
- 16:10Speaker 4: What do I have to do?
- 16:11Speaker 1: So so when Chasing piped in and said, well I
- 16:15Speaker 1: might could do it. What all do I have to do?
- 16:16Speaker 1: And I was like, you're good, you're in, You're you know,
- 16:18Speaker 1: you can speak English, Yes, you can speak Supplace, you
- 16:20Speaker 1: can speak you can smile where you're in and so
- 16:24Speaker 1: so I really do appreciate it because it makes this
- 16:25Speaker 1: a lot easier when somebody else is here with us,
- 16:27Speaker 1: and I get that sometimes it can be a little
- 16:30Speaker 1: intimidating and radio, I don't know, if I don't have
- 16:33Speaker 1: the same radio you don't. You don't have to listen
- 16:35Speaker 1: back to it.
- 16:35Speaker 4: You know, it doesn't matter accent, so I didn't need
- 16:38Speaker 4: to talk.
- 16:38Speaker 2: We're in Birmingham. You're in Birmingham.
- 16:40Speaker 1: You're fine. Is mine not country?
- 16:43Speaker 5: Nah?
- 16:43Speaker 1: You sound sound thirty good? Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
- 16:49Speaker 1: All right, we're good. All right? So real quick, try
- 16:52Speaker 1: to get the back on tracks here. So I'm gonna
- 16:56Speaker 1: just give a little bit this kind of when I
- 16:58Speaker 1: get into a little bit of the mortgage of the
- 16:59Speaker 1: market update what we're seeing rates. You know what I'm
- 17:02Speaker 1: seeing right now. We're in a little bit of a
- 17:04Speaker 1: tug of war on rates. They're pretty flat. A lot
- 17:09Speaker 1: of that is a little bit John Penning with the
- 17:14Speaker 1: with the the government shutdowns not helping rates, but the
- 17:17Speaker 1: expectation that the that that the that the Federal Reserve
- 17:20Speaker 1: not part of the government. Just to be clear, Federal
- 17:23Speaker 1: Reserve is still working. So when the Federal Reserve meets
- 17:25Speaker 1: on October twenty ninth, it is expected now they are
- 17:27Speaker 1: going to do another quarter percent drop on the rate,
- 17:29Speaker 1: which will who great.
- 17:31Speaker 5: But some of the things that Federal Reserve lies on
- 17:33Speaker 5: is data that the federal government amasses for them, so
- 17:36Speaker 5: they don't have that data, right.
- 17:37Speaker 1: They don't have they won't have all the current data.
- 17:39Speaker 1: And the good thing is some of suff in such
- 17:41Speaker 1: a lag and they're literally looking in such a post
- 17:44Speaker 1: marked data anyways at the meeting. But the biggest tug
- 17:47Speaker 1: of war is the markets don't like it when the
- 17:49Speaker 1: government shut down, and so that would normally make interest
- 17:53Speaker 1: rates go higher. Well, with us being under three under
- 17:57Speaker 1: three weeks away or right under three weeks way from
- 18:02Speaker 1: what we expect to be another quarter percent rate cut,
- 18:04Speaker 1: which would normally make mortgage rates keep coming down their
- 18:07Speaker 1: tug of warning, and we're just kind of just staying
- 18:09Speaker 1: stuck right now, right, and so so we're not getting
- 18:12Speaker 1: no you know, what we're what we really want is
- 18:14Speaker 1: we want the government to open back up, don't be
- 18:17Speaker 1: shut down. Let's let's get that thing back up and running,
- 18:20Speaker 1: and then let's let's see what happens to mortgage rates then,
- 18:22Speaker 1: because again we've been kind of hitting these little walls
- 18:25Speaker 1: and waiting for the next step in this second rate cut,
- 18:27Speaker 1: I think is gonna get us back down hopefully closer.
- 18:30Speaker 1: I'm even a little closer to six percent. You know,
- 18:31Speaker 1: we're still seeing the thirty year fixed average somewhere in
- 18:35Speaker 1: the you know, six point three eight range, six point
- 18:36Speaker 1: three five range on thirty year fixed on average nationally,
- 18:41Speaker 1: and then we're still seeing some government loans down and
- 18:42Speaker 1: you know the upper five. So, I mean, we're getting
- 18:44Speaker 1: where we want it to be to really get folks
- 18:46Speaker 1: off the fence and try to get this thing moving.
- 18:48Speaker 1: But you know, people are looking and kind of waiting
- 18:52Speaker 1: to see what's gonna happen. So we're hoping we get
- 18:55Speaker 1: the government shut down thing in soon. We helpe we
- 18:57Speaker 1: get our quarter percent reduction at the end of October,
- 19:00Speaker 1: and hopefully after that meeting they'll there will be some
- 19:03Speaker 1: data that but hopefully so that they they'll think about
- 19:07Speaker 1: dropping again at least one more time this year.
- 19:09Speaker 5: But you shouldn't try and time the market and say
- 19:11Speaker 5: I'm not going to buy a house because I don't
- 19:12Speaker 5: know what's going to happen in month.
- 19:14Speaker 1: No, I mean, that's that's that's the deal too. I
- 19:16Speaker 1: mean it's that you know, Gussy's been talking about that
- 19:19Speaker 1: calm before the storm, and so like when you look
- 19:22Speaker 1: at it, like even in a great real estate year,
- 19:24Speaker 1: you know it's it's seasonally cyclical so you know, seasonally,
- 19:28Speaker 1: this we're getting in the slowest time of the year.
- 19:31Speaker 1: So like, even if we have a great December compared
- 19:33Speaker 1: to previous decembers, it's going to be lower than it
- 19:36Speaker 1: was in July, right, So, I says, at home for
- 19:38Speaker 1: the holidays, right, yeah, yeah, there there there are some,
- 19:40Speaker 1: but there are a few and they kind of they
- 19:42Speaker 1: do that, they kind of carry the market there. But
- 19:44Speaker 1: so when we get into November, December, January, February, it
- 19:47Speaker 1: slows down a little bit. So even with rates dropping,
- 19:51Speaker 1: you know, how many people are really going to be
- 19:53Speaker 1: in the market at this time of year that wouldn't
- 19:55Speaker 1: only be in the market, you know, got school's job,
- 19:57Speaker 1: you know, if you know, it's certain things that have
- 19:59Speaker 1: got to dictate why you're making the move. And so
- 20:02Speaker 1: and then some people were kind of stringing out on
- 20:04Speaker 1: the fence of what they can do. You know, how
- 20:05Speaker 1: long where are we good here? You know, we ready
- 20:08Speaker 1: to move up. But now next spring when it all
- 20:10Speaker 1: hits to John's point, Next spring, when it hits and
- 20:12Speaker 1: we expect rates to keep coming in a little bit
- 20:14Speaker 1: and hopefully hopefully be solidly in the fives. And then
- 20:19Speaker 1: all of a sudden we're there, and we're getting back
- 20:21Speaker 1: into buyer's season, and we've got this backlog of people
- 20:24Speaker 1: that have been waiting on rates, and more houses are
- 20:26Speaker 1: on the market and more buyers come on the market.
- 20:28Speaker 1: You know these prices, you know that these these list
- 20:31Speaker 1: prices are going to go up, they're not coming down,
- 20:33Speaker 1: and there'll be multiple offer situations, multiple offers if if
- 20:37Speaker 1: this thing actually hits and everything starts blowing and going,
- 20:40Speaker 1: you know what, you were worried about maybe getting a
- 20:42Speaker 1: quarter percent lower interest rate, but you paid thirty thousand
- 20:45Speaker 1: dollars more for the house that you might could have
- 20:47Speaker 1: gotten in a similar situation before. So don't don't get
- 20:51Speaker 1: so hung up on what the interest rates are. If
- 20:52Speaker 1: you need to be doing something, of course, you can
