Think the housing market is headed for disaster? Logan Mohtashami says: Look closer at the numbers. As lead analyst for HousingWire—nicknamed “the Chart Daddy”—Logan brings data-driven clarity to a topic often clouded by headlines and fear. He reveals why the 2008 crash was an anomaly, not a blueprint, and how America's housing system is fundamentally built for ownership, not perpetual crisis.We dig into why rising mortgage rates haven't stopped millions from buying homes, why millennials and Gen Z are fueling new demand, and how the 30-year fixed mortgage remains one of the best inflation hedges around. With record homeowner equity and little risk of a foreclosure wave, Logan gives us real reasons for optimism—and reminds us that behind every chart is a family building their future.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyListen to Logan Mohtashami on the HousingWire PodcastBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Today on Power House, we are bringing you a fantastic conversation between HousingWire's Senior Director of the Content Studio, Zeb Lowe, and Jennifer Beeston, the EVP of National Sales at Rate and a veteran loan originator.
