GDP Comes in Light While Housing Starts Improve and Mortgage Rates Stay Cautious

In this episode of Real Estate Jerky Daily, Ed Parcaut goes solo to break down a mixed economic picture, including weaker-than-expected GDP, sharply lower jobless claims, rising housing starts, and steady mortgage application activity. He also covers oil-driven rate volatility tied to Iran headlines, why the market is still in lock mode for borrowers, and what upcoming credit scoring changes involving VantageScore and FICO could mean for the mortgage industry. It is another practical daily update packed with housing data, mortgage perspective, and straight talk on what matters right now.
