Episode notes

What if one of the biggest threats to your mortgage pipeline isn’t rates - but insurance? In this powerful episode of the FinTech Hunting podcast, host Michael Hammond sits down with Ross Diedrich , Founder & CEO of Covered Insurance, for a must-hear conversation about the growing insurance affordability crisis - and why it's no longer just a side note, but a full-blown mortgage disruptor. Deals are dying. Borrowers are blindsided at the closing table. DTIs are imploding due to insurance premiums. Ross pulls back the curtain on how rising costs, carrier exits, and mid-cycle changes are quietly sabotaging originations and servicing - and what lenders and servicers must do now to regain control.
