Regardless of the market, regardless of conditions, regardless of the underwriting guidelines, regardless of location, people will always need housing. Some people, like 5000 m / ft buildings, some as 900 m / ft bungalow, but it's still a house.
What a lot of people look when they need a home? .... A LOAN! And to get a mortgage (usually) need to find a loan officer of a certain type, right? I follow you with this thought process yet?
Let put it another way. Sears stock has been in business for a very long time, right? An item that sold for a very long time is a drill. Nothing special on a drill, it is only a means to create a hole. If someone could make a hole with a finger, would not need a drill. Sears does not sell drills to people who need drills, drills sell to people who need holes. Now you're following me?
People do not come to Mortgage Brokers and loan officers to obtain a mortgage, people come to Mortgage Brokers and loan officers to get money to buy stuff with. No friend ever came to a mortgage broker because they wanted a mortgage. The mortgage was the vehicle they needed to get what she really wanted. The mortgage was the tip so that the borrower could make his hole. Get it? (yes, I understand there may be tax benefits with a mortgage, but that's another discussion for later).
