Jobs; Sales, Pricing, Processing Tools; VA and FHA Changes Jun 3 2021, 8:24AM Here’s your pro tip of the day: occasionally blow on the wine in your coffee mug to convince the rest of the Zoom meeting that it is tea. Speaking of the working world, are you an “office worker” or, as Amazon tells its warehouse employees, an “industrial athlete” and to prepare one’s body for that experience is like someone training for a sporting event? Don’t pull a hammy logging onto the Ginnie site. It’s been four and a half months since Joe Biden was sworn in as the 46th president and there are still no picks to head FHA and Ginnie Mae. The Mortgage Bankers Associations latest survey tells that that, among its sample of retail lenders, the FHA share of total applications is nearly at 10 percent and the VA share of total applications is nearly 11 percent. (The USDA share is less than 1 percent.) So news of these channels and this segment is material for many lenders, and there is more below. Today’s audio version of the commentary is available here featuring Part One an interview with Nathan Lee, Head of Richey May Advisory, on trends he has seen across lenders in recent years. This week’s podcast is sponsored by Richey May.
