The 21st Century Road to Housing Act passed both chambers and awaits the president's signature. Debbie breaks down the three pieces that touch your wallet: unlocking mortgages under $100,000, one standard process for fighting a low appraisal, and a 350-home cap on corporate landlords.…

California landlords are selling and moving their money — but where? Debbie explains how a 1031 exchange really works (it matches the sales price, not the loan), why the trail has run Texas → Nevada → Arizona, and the rent-by-the-room college-town math delivering the best cash flow she's seen.…
The January jobs report came in roughly double expectations — and hopes for a Fed rate cut before midyear went with it. Debbie breaks down the numbers, what Fed officials are signaling, why mortgage pricing worsened the same day, and why waiting above 6.75% may be costing you every month.…

Neither the 50-year mortgage nor the portable mortgage exists in the US today — start there.

The Fed's first cut of 2025 landed — and mortgage rates barely moved, because rate sheets priced it in weeks ago. Debbie reads the Fed's statement on air, explains Powell's take on the housing shortage, when a refinance makes sense, and how often you can actually refinance.…

Consolidating your mortgage and a HELOC usually counts as a cash-out refinance — even with no cash in hand — and costs about half a point in rate. Debbie shares real quotes (7.25% vs 6.75% for the same client), the two-step consolidation strategy, and FHA/VA streamlines priced in the low 5s.…
Mortgage pricing finally punched through the wall it hit for 11 straight months — checked live on air. Debbie explains what Powell's Jackson Hole speech did to rate sheets, why waiting for the Fed's announcement day to lock is a mistake, and the HELOC blended-rate math that's getting close to 6%.…
