HISTORIC VOTE: The House just passed H.R. 6644, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act.

After years of fighting regulatory barriers that drive up costs, mortgage brokers and independent lenders finally got the reform we fought for.

This bill:

Makes small-dollar mortgages more accessible and profitable for brokers

Removes artificial costs from manufactured housing

Expands access to workforce housing programs

Speeds up permitting and local approvals

Thanks to House sponsors Rep. French Hill, Rep. Maxine Waters and others, and Senate sponsors Sens. Tim Scott and Elizabeth Warren for championing this bipartisan bill.

The bill is now headed to President Trump's desk for signature. This is a win for brokers. This is a win for borrowers. This is a win for the independent lending industry.

But here's the reality: NAMB's voice in Washington comes from NAMBPAC donations. Without your support, we cannot advocate for legislators who support you. Without NAMBPAC, we cannot compete with other interests. Without you, we cannot win.

The next fight is coming. Are you with us?

Big step forward. The Senate just passed the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act (H.R. 6644) by 85 to 5.

NAMB was at the table on this bill, fighting for the affordability provisions that help brokers and the families they serve: better small-dollar mortgage access, a stronger appraisal pipeline, and more housing to finance.

The bill now goes back to the House. We are almost there. Thank you for showing up.

Have you every thought, why does this rule exist?

The rules that shape your business are being written and rewritten by Congress, federal regulators, and agency decision-makers, and NAMB is at that table on your behalf.

The National Association of Mortgage Brokers represents independent mortgage professionals before the people setting housing policy, so you can stay focused on closing loans and serving clients while NAMB handles the advocacy.

Volunteer led and member driven since 1973, NAMB carries the broker's voice straight to lawmakers and regulators, working year-round for regulatory relief, protecting access to credit, and defending your competitive position against the big banks and large lenders. Members who want a seat in the room can step into that work directly through NAMB events.

Nobody talks about the dad who is running point on a complicated file at 7PM and still makes it to bedtime stories by 8.

Or the one who takes the Saturday morning pre-approval call from the bleachers because the game was not getting rescheduled and neither was the client.

Fatherhood and this industry have one big thing in common. Both will test everything you have and somehow make you better for it.

To every dad building something worth handing down, in this business and at home, Happy Father's Day from all of us at NAMB.

SOCIAL MEDIA TAKEOVER - Strategic Compliance Partners

Mortgage compliance shouldn’t only be reviewed when an audit begins.
A mid-year compliance check helps brokerages identify policy gaps, documentation issues, and operational risks before regulators discover them.
Strategic Compliance Partners works with mortgage brokers to review compliance programs, strengthen policies, and prepare organizations for regulatory examinations.

43 times.

The typical U.S. homeowner has a net worth 43 times greater than the average renter. That is not a selling point. That is a life-changing number, and your clients deserve to know it.

The more you show up with education, the more you become the person people think of when they are ready to buy. The NAMB Homeownership Toolkit gives you the graphics, the guides, and the content to keep that conversation going all month.
