    Kevin Warsh Named Next Fed Chair: What Happens to Mortgage Rates Now?

    Kevin Warsh has officially been nominated to replace Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve Chairman and the big question now is what this means for interest rates, mortgage rates, housing, and the broader economy. In this episode, we cut through the political noise and focus on what actually matters for borrowers and investors. I break down who Kevin Warsh is, his background at the Federal Reserve, and whether he is likely to lean more hawkish or dovish. More importantly, we discuss why the bond market reaction matters more than headlines and how the 10 year Treasury ultimately drives mortgage rates. We also cover: How jobs, inflation, and consumer spending will determine future rate cutsWhy small businesses are struggling despite strong economic dataThe difference between Fed rate cuts and mortgage rate movementsOther policy levers that could bring mortgage rates down beyond the FedWhy affordability not politics is the real issue heading into 2026 If you are a homebuyer, investor, homeowner, or self employed borrower, understanding how this leadership transition could impact rates is critical. Mortgage markets respond to data, confidence, and forward guidance not just announcements. As we move deeper into 2026, the real drivers will be the labor market, consumer strength, inflation trends, and bond market belief. That is where the focus should be.

    The Economy Looks Fine Until You See This

    On the surface, the economy looks stable. The stock market is holding up, inflation appears under control, and official messaging says things are fine. But when you talk directly with small business owners, especially in restaurants and hospitality, a very different reality emerges. In this episode, I share real conversations with restaurant owners and operators and explain why this sector is already experiencing recession-like conditions, even if the headlines are not acknowledging it yet. We discuss Why most restaurants are barely breaking even or losing moneyHow rising labor, insurance, utilities, rent, and food costs destroyed marginsWhy consumer spending is slowing even as prices remain highHow post-pandemic demand turned into a spending hangoverWhy businesses can no longer raise prices without losing customersWhat this reveals about small businesses beyond restaurantsWhy this matters for housing, real estate, interest rates, and the broader economyWhy staying in neutral is risky and how rate cuts could change the outlook Restaurant margins were always thin, and the combination of higher costs and softer demand has pushed many small businesses to the edge. This is not just a restaurant issue. It is a small business issue with broader economic consequences. If you want to understand what is happening beneath the surface of the economy and why official narratives often miss early warning signs, this is an important conversation to hear.

    2026 OFF to a BANG with TRUMP’S announcements

    2026 is starting with a bang. Trump just announced a series of major housing, mortgage, and economic proposals, and some of them could have real implications for interest rates, affordability, and the housing market.

Others may face significant hurdles. Understanding the difference is critical for homebuyers, homeowners, investors, and industry professionals navigating the 2026 housing market.

    I Wake Up at 3AM Every Day. Here’s Why Discipline Beats Motivation

    Why Motivation Isn’t Enough in 2026 It’s a new year, and like most people, you probably started 2026 with big goals. Get in shape. Wake up earlier. Build better habits. Focus on your life, your health, and your future. In this episode, I share why waking up early completely changed my life, how I built the discipline to stay consistent, and why it has almost nothing to do with mornings and everything to do with the night before. This is not a hype or motivation episode. It is a real conversation about habits, discipline, mindset, and why most people fall off after a few weeks while others stay consistent for years. In this episode, I talk aboutWhy most New Year motivation fades fastWhy waking up early is about structure, not willpowerHow the night before determines your morningSimple habits that make waking up early easierWhy discipline beats motivation every timeHow to reset quickly after travel or setbacksLearning to say no to protect your goalsWhy consistency matters more than intensity I also share how getting up early gave me something most people never get, uninterrupted time to think, plan, work, and take care of my mind and body before the rest of the world wakes up. This routine may not be for everyone. You do not need to wake up at 3AM. But waking up earlier, creating alone time, and building discipline can change how you show up in every area of your life. If you are serious about making 2026 different, this episode will help you rethink habits, discipline, and what it really takes to stay consistent.

    In this 2026 outlook, I break down what I call the New Fed Era and what a new Federal Reserve Chair could mean for interest rates, housing, and the broader economy. Many people are wondering whether 2026 brings a recession or whether the so called soft landing is actually happening.

If you are a homebuyer, homeowner, real estate investor, or industry professional, this episode covers the critical economic and housing trends that will shape decision making in 2026. In this episode, we discussHow a new Fed Chair could change interest rate strategyWhy lower rates may not immediately trigger a housing boomWhat recession probability data actually tells usHow consumer confidence and spending affect the economyNational versus local housing price expectationsWhat to expect for jobs, inflation, and affordability in 2026 The housing market in 2026 may look very different than most people expect. Understanding how the Federal Reserve communicates, how markets price expectations, and how policy shifts flow through real estate is essential for making informed decisions. If you want clarity on where rates, housing, and the economy may be headed next, this episode breaks it down in plain English.

Fannie Mae has updated its guidelines to allow up to three ADUs on a single family property in California.
