12.5.25 Federal Reserve Purview; Creative Title's Caleb Christopher on Responsible Lending; Consumption Expenditures
Description
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 discuss just what the Federal Reserve can control as the prices of rare earth metals skyrocket. Plus, Robbie sits down with Creative Title’s Caleb Christopher for a discussion on how lenders can adopt advanced AI and creative financing models while maintaining transparency, security, and consumer protection, and examining how private-capital “non-bank bank” structures, tightening credit, and the needs of underserved borrowers will shape the balance between innovation, risk, and trust. And we close by examining what delayed releases are telling us about the state of inflation.
Today's podcast is presented by Two Dots. Whether it’s applying to rent an apartment or take out a loan, today’s approval process is full of blind spots and inefficiencies. Critical data sits locked inside documents, leaving companies with an incomplete picture that causes delays, increased risk, and inconsistent decisions. Two Dots is building a better system. One where underwriting and screening is automated not manual. Where applications happen in real-time within a dynamic and contextual conversation. And where better decisions are made faster for everyone.
