Polygon Research team delivered an analysis of the changing demographics and the impact on mortgage lending. Key topics covered were demographics as they relate to home buying trends, leveraging data points to help brokers understand where there are untapped homebuying audiences, and the importance of having a good understanding of these trends at the local market level.
