Build wealth with
a home
Home
equity
is the cornerstone of most family wealth, and that equity is growing. Over the last 50 years, homeowners have been able to finance an increasingly larger percentage of buying a home. And in the last 10 years, the pool of people qualifying to borrow has expanded as well, thanks to more flexible lending with lower down payments, automated
underwriting,
and mortgage insurance.
What’s in store for the future? For all of us in the
mortgage
industry and everyone who wants to own a home, refinance a mortgage, or borrow against equity, it's more of the same. That means a steady source of
capital
that lenders can use to make loans, an even more streamlined approval process, and a strong economy fueled by people building, furnishing, and renovating their homes. |
