I returned to the First Business television studios this week to talk mortgages and housing.
In 3 minutes, our interview goes deep on:
- Why conforming mortgage applicant will pay higher loan costs in 2011
- The Fed's QE2 program to lower mortgage rates, and whether its working
- Why mortgage rates are trending toward 6 percent, longer-term

Call or with your follow-up questions. I answer all my own email personally.
