Real Estate Tip of the Week: How to Shave Off 6 Years From Your Mortgage Payments

This conversation is between two people who recently attended a tech meetup. They talk about the people they met, ranging from software developers to those who are just getting into tech because they don't have any other skills. The speaker goes on to say that the biggest takeaway from the event was not to be afraid to advertise their services, even if they are unrelated to tech. He also notes that he was able to get a warm lead for real estate. He emphasizes the importance of networking and not being afraid to stand out and advertise one's services. Overall, the meetup was a rewarding experience for both people, as they were able to learn more about the tech industry and gain some leads.

The conversation discussed the issue of rent control in Florida. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have put condos on a blacklist, meaning that they must go through a stringent application process in order to be approved for a mortgage product. If they fail the application screening due to under-reservation, bad record-keeping, or bad maintenance, buyers are unable to purchase them. The Florida Supreme Court did not hear a case regarding rent control, indicating that due to the political situation in Florida, rent control is unlikely to be implemented. It was suggested that even if rent control were to be implemented, it would not be effective, as homeowners could still charge high prices to cover their mortgage payments.
