The mortgage industry is broken. It takes 45 days to close a loan that should take 45 minutes.

We originated 58 billion dollars in mortgages in a single year. Then rates changed and the world changed with them.

I know the Zoom call was handled badly. I know. But the company was dying and I had to act.

Mortgage lending is a rate-sensitive business. When rates double your business does not halve. It falls off a cliff.

If you are not willing to be the villain in someone else's story you cannot be the hero in your own.

We will be here when rates come back down. The question is whether we will be stronger. I intend for us to be.
