Conference attendance in 2023 may be down, given layoffs and budget cuts, but hereâs a handy dandy list of events this year and state organizations. (Click on âConferencesâ on the right; for any additions or corrections, contact Ed.) Here at the MBAâs IMB conference, itâs not much fun talking about revenue and margins. So, letâs talk Vitamin C! San Diego County, and California, ranks first with 59 percent of the U.S. citrus production. And when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. What about when life gives you plenty of barren areas of snow? Thank you to Len T. for this one, reminding us that some people have inordinate amounts of time on their hands. And thank you to Michael Chan yesterday who sent the real estate version of Wordle if you will, where you guess the price of the house. (Watch for those oceanside house prices!) Yes, there are plenty of people out there looking at housing, and the amount for sale. On Friday NAR reported that total housing inventory levels broke under 1 million in December, dropping to 970,00 units. (This weekâs podcast is sponsored by Richey May, a recognized leader in providing specialized advisory, audit, tax, technology, and other services in the mortgage industry and in banking.

Do you know what âsplootingâ is? Hereâs a hint: 4-legged animals do it. (Hey, I donât make these things up.) Quite the word. Words are very interesting, and can incite a riot, help someone get through a loss, make up this Commentary, entertain. Every morning I share my Wordle results with a few friends, comparing who was able to find the 5-letter word of the day in the fewest tries. For the most part Wordle is quick, fun, and mildly entertaining, which is the exact opposite of financing a home as any borrower or loan originator will tell you. Originate? âOriginâ: source, inception, root means the point at which something begins its course or existence. Origin applies to the things or persons from which something is ultimately derived and often to the causes operating before the thing itself comes into being. âateâ is a suffix meaning âstate of quality ofâ and when added makes an adjective a verb. Originate, tolerate, stimulate, nominate, dislocate, penetrate, intimidate⦠there are thousands of words with -ate on the end. And as many of us are in, or head to, San Diego for the MBAâs conference, origination volumes, margins, and revenues will certainly be discussed, as will attempting to lessen the friction that each loan goes through during processing and closing. It is important to remember that weâve helped millions of families by originating their loans and save billions of dollars, and will continue to do so.

A friend out in California asked me how much, on average, I spend on a bottle of wine. I replied, âAbout half an hour.â Plenty of wine is being consumed while watching Yellowstone and 1923, and while all the women are ogling Spencer Dutton in 1923, in some non-mortgage news to save the economy the Secretary of Homeland Security will announce next month that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement will start deporting seniors (instead of illegals) to lower Social Security and Medicare costs. A major study concluded that older people are easier to catch, offer less resistance, and, more importantly, will not remember how to get back home. In actual news, lenders who own servicing continue to peel it off because it either doesnât fit their portfolio, or they need the cash. The owners of lenders continue to examine various business strategies as we start 2023, with some thinking that it doesnât make sense to remain the size they are. There was a lot of mergers and acquisition activity last year, big and small. I am told by my M&A friends at STRATMOR (Garth & David) that 2023 is lining up for even more. (Both will be in San Diego at the IMB Conference if you want to confidentially meet up.) This weekâs podcast is sponsored by Candor.
