11:42 am
u.s. home loans this year. he joins me now from charlotte, north carolina. good to have you with us. why did you decide to create movement mortgage? casey: when i was in the nfl, my first coach told me i needed to find a way to be needed on the field. there were five tight ends and they were going to only keep three. it's the same situation we saw in 2008. we saw a need for first-time homebuyers and millenial's to the served in a way they currently were not being served by the big banks. there was a real lack of customer service and we wanted to change that, so we developed a seven-day process, one day to close, we think it changed the lending paradigm. pimm: give us an example of how the company has changed since you found it. 2000 teamhave added
11:43 am
members and 3000 offices. we are originating one out of every 75 guaranteed loans because of the industry changing paradigm. that includes cities like charlotte, north carolina where we have cities here -- we're the number one purchased industry here. pimm: tell us about the origination rate down. 50% of ourt government loans are fha mortgages. about 40% of our home loans are done for first-time homebuyers. grossed --about the the gross revenue change you have undergone. casey: we started humbly, with six employees. that's a pretty dramatic run-up year over but we are most
11:44 am
excited we will be able to serve 46,000 homebuyers in a process that we do not think was existing before. it has a real transcendent purpose to it. it's beyond making money. we think we are helping families get homes and bring communities not what thech is mortgage industry was known for when we joined the scene. pimm: can you describe the process by which someone would apply for a mortgage? as a point of differentiation between you and originators. one of the big misconceptions is that credit is tough to come by. one message we want to send out to millenial than first-time homebuyers is that credit is available. especially non-bank unders are eager to put together mortgages to get people into homes. we are going to ask you to give us a complete financial picture up front before you shop for a

insert movement mortgage into the business to access the money? 87% of modules and first-time homebuyers are using realtors to find a home. a lot of talk has been made that the internet is going to replace the real estate agent, but we don't find that the case at all. advice fromt realtors -- we align ourselves with those realtors come often times renting space inside real estate offices so we can work with them. that is what we have done across the united states. pimm: can you give us an idea of the purchase versus the refi market? our business93% of is focused on purchases. what we saw a need for was to bring excellence to the home purchase process. when i bought my first home, i
11:47 am
came to the closing table in my lender had not got my package done and this is the day before i was supposed to get married, so i was that ultimate story of a loan gone wrong. we want to make sure no other buyer suffers that. it's supposed to be a joyful time. we put together our process to mirror that. pimm: i'm sure you have heard about the efforts to try to reform fannie mae and freddie mac. what would the mortgage industry look like if they were not in the picture? casey: i don't think right now that is a reality. i don't think the market could absorb the private capital. there are valuable and the homeownership rates are as low as they then in 20 years. the last thing anyone wants to do is further push those numbers down. we want to stimulate the economy. we need to see growth and we need fannie mae and freddie mac sure that happens. pimm: can you give us an idea
11:48 am
what you are seeing with multifamily versus single-family homes? casey: we do not play a lot in the multi family space come as i can't comment on that. in a single-family, we see millenials taking up more market share. 40% of the overall homebuying market is first time buyers. folks who have good credit who did not go through a bankruptcy the008 or 2010 are entering marketplace, although later in life than what we have seen in previous generations. pimm: we have seen the 30 year fixed mortgage increase in costs. is that going to's were more purchases because people want to get in before he gets more expensive? casey: we hope so. there's no better time to own a home as right now. interest rate are as low as we will see them in our lifetime and you can lock in a fixed interest rate at historic lows.

rise,se interest rates it's exponentially more expensive to own a home. looking at a home in the next six to 12 months, jump in now. the market is fantastic and interest rates are at historic lows. you are coming to us from charlotte. i wonder if you can characterize the different markets in which you operate based on strengths and weakness. about 300 offices around the united dates. charlotte has been goldilocks -- not too hot, not too cold. we never experienced the big run ups and did not experience as much pain. we see many buyers take 60 days to buy a home contrasted with northern california. shop for six to
11:50 am
12 months to find that home, which is all the more reason they need to get qualified up run with a lender, so when they find the home, they can make a strong offer. sellers want to know they are dealing with qualified buyers. you very much. casey crawford is the founder and chief executive of movement mortgage. more ahead on the bloomberg market day and a programming note -- tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. eastern, an interview with the chief executive of walmart. ♪

11:55 am
what happens when the market anticipates an event is call implied volatility gets dead relative to puts. it's the market saying they expect it to the upside because they are paying for calls. is one of the targets you are seeing and what is the trade on it? >> just to finish that, we algorithmsix factor looking at term structure and other metrics. one of the names that floated to the top was hilton. it's a good example of this. you are talking about a country that did -- a company that did a secondary blackstone. there's now speculation of inclusion in the s&p 500. we expect them to announce a dividend next quarter. they might be spinning their lodging assets and timeshare assets. a lot of events here and it's in the top five of this list we created.
