Big Mortgage Update: Trigger Leads Eliminated & Where Rates Are Heading
About this episode
Adam Rose discusses the elimination of trigger leads, current mortgage rates, and housing market trends.
Mortgage rates update, trigger leads ban, housing market update, and mortgage rate forecast for 2026. In this episode of The Mortgage Guy Podcast, Adam Rose from Western Ohio Mortgage explains the end of mortgage trigger leads, what it means for homebuyers, and how the change affects the mortgage industry. For years, trigger leads from credit bureaus like Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion caused homebuyers to receive dozens of calls after a mortgage credit pull. Now the trigger lead practice has officially ended, which is a major win for consumers and mortgage lenders. Adam also breaks down the current mortgage rate environment, the Federal Reserve interest rate outlook, and why experts still expect 2–3 rate cuts in 2026. If you're watching the housing market, mortgage interest rates, or planning to buy a home, this episode explains what's happening right now. You'll also hear Adam discuss spring housing market trends, rising inventory levels, and why getting pre-approved for a mortgage is still one of the most important steps when buying a home.
