For this week’s LLL, Jim and Alayna sit down back at LodeStar HQ to recap their experience exhibiting at ICE Experience 2023 in Las Vegas.

Horace and Octavia discuss the SVB collapse.

As we explored more deeply our potential relationship, I was struck by how densely concentrated SVB’s investments were. The focus was on high-value, high-yield businesses. That’s great when everything’s going well. But with high wealth comes high risk.

For this week’s episode of the LodeStar Lending Leaders Podcast, Jim sits down with Michele Kryczkowski, a passionate advocate of mentorships with twenty years of mortgage industry experience.

Horace searches for ARM buyers.

It’s fairly simple. The decisions we make when designing and implementing these incredible and advanced technologies are going to reflect our own biases, principles, beliefs, and viewpoints.

For this week’s episode of the LodeStar Lending Leaders podcast, Alayna sat down with Rob Chrane, Founder and CEO of Down Payment Resource. Together they discussed all things down payment assistance, empowering local lenders to help borrowers, and fighting the uphill battle of homebuyer education.

Horace doesn’t need the new CRM.

There are signs that this down cycle, too, will not be permanent. Some of the industry’s best and brightest are starting to suggest that the market will return to some level of stability this year.
