Melody Wright is a real estate, macro, and technology analyst who began her mortgage career at GMAC ResCap in 2006 and helped manage the historic ResCap bankruptcy. She publishes the M3 Melody Substack. During our conversation we spoke about her thoughts on the real estate market, why it could be worse than 2008, lowest sales in 30 years, how experts have it so wrong and more. I hope you enjoy!
