Mortgages are only part of our lives, right? I only know what I read online, although Abraham Lincoln once said, “Don’t believe everything you read on the internet.” Before you fly down the freeway on a summer vacation, I also know that I have received my fair share of speeding tickets. (For those of you who haven’t, it’s a “punch in the gut” feeling to see that red light in the rear-view mirror. I’ve been able to talk them out of… none.) In something that smacks of Big Brother watching all the data, apparently 9 percent of drivers had a speeding ticket in 2022. Those drivers probably knew the speed limits, but in case you’d like a map of worldwide speed limits, here you go. (Thank you to Carol K.!) The official FHFA 2024 loan limits won’t be out until around Thanksgiving, of course, but in terms of inventions there is no limit on innovation. Face it: there isn’t a lot of innovation in lending.

But… On a big scale, and we’ve been hearing forecasts of a recession for a year now, JPMorgan Chase’s economists opine that the economy will slip into a mild recession in 2023 as a result of the Federal Reserve's monetary tightening. Of course, recessions usually mean lower rates (one of the topics in today’s Rich and Rob show with MGIC). "We also expect slowing aggregate demand eventually leading to labor market weakness that builds on itself, and we anticipate that we could lose over a million jobs by the middle of '24." Smaller mortgage banks may not be able to wait it out. STRATMOR’s M&A practice is “en fuego” with large and small deals. Mortgage servicing rights continue to hit the open market in varying sizes and shapes. Informally chatting with a couple servicing specialists indicates that the small
