Get our free real estate course and newsletter: GRE Letter I state the reasons why I DON’T believe that the Federal Open Market Committee should lower interest rates. Rates are currently normalized. Watch the full Spartan Summit Presentation here. The first half is played on this episode. President Biden is trying to help the housing market’s poor affordability and undersupply.
