Transitions in Real Estate and Mortgage Trends

As the real estate industry adjusted to COVID-19, the mortgage industry also shifted to accommodate the sudden onset of people eager to refinance existing mortgages, homeowners who lost income and homebuyers looking to secure a loan with historically low rates. Ward Morrison, President of Motto Mortgage, believes that increased communication from mortgage brokers – along with helpful digital mortgage tools – have helped improve the digital mortgage experience and create more fluid transactions. Motto Mortgage is the first national mortgage brokerage franchise in the U.S. and the second member of the RE/MAX family of brands.

In his third appearance on the Start With a Win podcast, Morrison joins RE/MAX CEO Adam Contos to discuss the current mortgage environment in the wake of the pandemic and how mortgage brokers have successfully adapted to unprecedented circumstances.

Tune in to this week’s episode to hear Morrison’s thoughts on why it can be important – and perhaps more valuable – for a client to work with a mortgage broker rather than a bank when exploring options to finance their home.
