Dave:
We are only a single week into 2026, and there is already so much news about the housing market. We’re talking about mortgage-backed security buying, a potential ban on institutional investors, and much more. We’re getting into all that on today’s episode of On the Market. Hey, everyone.

And man, there’s some slow weeks in news. There are times when we’re preparing for the show, there’s not that much to talk about. But man, there is a lot to talk about this week already in the first week of 2026. So let’s just jump right into it. Henry, you’re the man of the day, so you have to go first.
