The San Francisco Bay Area is one of the most analyzed housing markets in the world, yet the buyers themselves--the people making the largest financial decision of their lives--routinely operate with the least information. Jed Thibodeau will walk through the economic forces shaping the market (rates, supply, lending standards, the higher-rate environment) and then turn the lens around: what does a Bay Area buyer actually need to see to make a good decision, and why is so little of it surfaced before they sign a purchase contract?
Drawing on his work building The Mortgage Lens, a free lender-neutral qualification tool for Bay Area first-time buyers, Jed will use real qualification scenarios to show where the gap between market narrative and individual buyer reality is widest.
About The Speaker
Jed Thibodeau is a Bay Area licensed loan officer and the founder of The Mortgage Lens (TheMortgageLens.com), a free lender-neutral mortgage qualification tool built for Bay Area first-time homebuyers. He built it to close the information gap that costs buyers the most: the distance between what they assume they qualify for and what a lender will actually approve.
