“Housing and remodeling markets are undoubtedly slowing from the exceptionally high and unsustainable growth rates that followed in the wake of the pandemic-induced recession. Spending for home improvements will continue to face headwinds from declining home sales, rising interest rates, and the increasing costs of contractor labor and building materials.” --Carlos Martín, Project Director of the Remodeling Futures Program at the Joint Center for Housing Studies at Harvard University.

The Mortgage Bankers Associations Servicing Solutions Conference & Expo, Roadmap to Servicing Success, takes place Feb. 21-24 at the Hyatt Regency Orlando.
