Seems like everyone is an expert in the media where they say that mortgage rates are still low. Jim Kramer of CNN is the biggest liar and bullshitter who has great talent. Jim Krammer talent is lying with a straight face on national television on how great the economy is, how inflation is under control, and how mortgage rates are still low compared to 1980. All of these liberal clowns need to shut down their clownshow and get off the air. What are your thoughts of mortgage rates forecast in the coming months through 2025? What are your thoughts of inflation, the housing market, the stock market, the dollar, unemployment, and investment opportunities?

Maintaining insurance coverage is crucial for safeguarding your assets and finances against unexpected events. However, a lapse in insurance can prove problematic when seeking a new carrier. It is imperative to understand the potential consequences that can arise from a lapse in coverage as they can impact your ability to secure insurance coverage.
A lapse in insurance arises when an individual fails to pay their insurance premiums on time, resulting in the expiration of their coverage. This can happen for various reasons, such as financial difficulties, forgetfulness, or being unaware of the renewal date. Regardless of the reason, a lapse in coverage can pose significant challenges when attempting to acquire a new policy.
Primarily, a lapse in insurance can make it difficult to find a new carrier. Insurance companies view lapses in coverage as a red flag, indicating that the client may be a high-risk candidate. The length of the lapse can determine the difficulty of finding a new carrier willing to provide coverage. Some insurance companies may refuse coverage altogether, while others may require a down payment upfront or charge higher premiums.
Additionally, a lapse in insurance can impact insurance rates. Insurance companies use various factors to determine insurance rates, including driving record, credit score, and claims history. A lapse in coverage can negatively affect these factors, resulting in higher insurance rates. In some instances, the insurance company may require higher rates for several years after the lapse.
Finally, a lapse in insurance can impact one’s ability to make claims. If an accident occurs during the lapse, the individual may not be covered by their insurance policy. Even if a new policy is secured after the lapse, the new carrier may refuse to cover damages incurred during the lapsed period.
In summary, a lapse in insurance can create significant difficulties when attempting to secure a new carrier. Timely payment of premiums and staying aware of renewal dates can help avoid a lapse in coverage. If a lapse does occur, it is crucial to work with an insurance agent to find a new carrier and understand the implications of the lapse on one’s coverage and rates. Being proactive about insurance coverage can ensure that one is protected in the face of unforeseen circumstances.

Housing inventory levels in Florida have seen a significant increase recently after years of extremely tight supply. Here are some key points about the rising inventory situation in Florida’s housing market:
- Sharp inventory rise: According to data from Florida Realtors, the inventory of active listings in Florida was up over 85% year-over-year in March 2023. This translates to around 4-5 months’ supply of homes for sale in many markets, compared to 1-2 months during the pandemic frenzy.
- Seller influx: More homeowners in Florida are listing their properties for sale, driven by factors like the desire to cash in on high home prices, concerns about missing the peak of the market, or life changes necessitating a move.
- New construction impact: An increase in new home construction over the past couple of years is also contributing to higher inventory levels across different price points.
- Investor selling: Real estate investors who bought properties during the housing boom are now offloading some of their holdings in anticipation of a market cooldown.
- Regional variations: While inventory is up statewide, the increase is more pronounced in some areas like Tampa, Orlando, and Miami, compared to others like Jacksonville.
- Price adjustments: With more choices for buyers, properties that are overpriced or less desirable are sitting longer on the market, prompting some sellers to reduce asking prices.
- Moderating sales: Higher mortgage rates and economic uncertainty have led to a moderation in home sales activity, further contributing to inventory buildup.
The surge in housing inventory in Florida provides more options for buyers who had been frustrated by the intense competition and lack of available homes during the pandemic boom years. However, it also signals a market shift that real estate investors and sellers need to navigate carefully.

As a multi-state MLO based in Utah, I am always looking for indicators in other states to predict what may be around the corner and what states I should focus my ad dollars in. Florida has been a great revenue generator for me over the past three years. I feel Florida will be a great place to stay focused in the next five years. That is why I hired my first MLO to the F1 Mortgage Team in Florida. FOMO (Fear of Losing Out) seems to be motivating out-of-state buyers to take a hard look at income properties in the state as well as people moving from other states to get in on the relative “good deals” in Florida as new residents of the Sunshine state. Employment opportunities in the state and work-from-home scenarios are making Florida very attractive to people who would never have looked at the state as a possible home 10 years ago.
If you are an MLO looking for new ground, I would suggest Florida. The state of Florida is massive and can benefit from quality MLOs looking to plant their MLO flag in the state. If you speak Spanish, the further South you prospect, the better.

Peter Schiff is a legend. Peter Schiff called the 2008 financial crisis when others were laughing at him. I remember Peter Schiff calling out Washington Mutual and sure enough the largest mortgage lender and servicer went out of business. This economic crisis is obvious. Consumers are feeling it at the pump, grocery stores, malls, auto repair shops, auto dealers, shopping for homes, surging mortgage rates, and the cost of goods and services skyrocketing like a runaway train. The dollar is becoming worthless because the Federal Reserve Board keeps printing money like there is no tomorrow. Wages are not keeping up with the cost of goods and services. $100,000 salary per year is no longer high income. The cost of goods and services has been rising rapidly in recent years, leading to significant inflationary pressures on consumers and businesses alike. Here are some key points about the current state of inflation and the factors driving high costs:
- Elevated inflation levels: The annual inflation rate in the United States reached a 40-year high of 9.1% in June 2022, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI). While it has moderated slightly since then, it remains well above the Federal Reserve’s target of 2%.
- Supply chain disruptions: The COVID-19 pandemic caused widespread disruptions in global supply chains, leading to shortages of various goods and materials, which drove up costs.
- Rising energy and commodity prices: The war in Ukraine, coupled with increased global demand as economies reopened, has led to a surge in energy prices, particularly for gasoline and natural gas. Other commodities, such as food and metals, have also seen significant price increases.
- Labor shortages and wage growth: Many industries have faced labor shortages, leading to higher wages and increased costs for businesses, which are often passed on to consumers.
- Strong consumer demand: Pent-up demand from the pandemic, coupled with government stimulus measures, has fueled robust consumer spending, putting upward pressure on prices.
- Housing and rent costs: The housing market has seen a sharp rise in prices and rental costs, contributing significantly to overall inflation.
- Federal Reserve’s response: The Federal Reserve has been aggressively raising interest rates to combat inflation, but the effects of these monetary policy actions often take time to fully materialize.
The persistently high inflation has eroded consumer purchasing power and squeezed household budgets, particularly for essential goods and services like food, housing, and energy. Businesses, too, have had to grapple with higher input costs, which can impact their profitability and investment decisions.
While the Federal Reserve’s efforts to cool demand and bring inflation under control are ongoing, the current inflationary environment remains a significant challenge for both consumers and businesses alike.
