In this week’s episode we welcome Laura Escobar, President of Lennar Mortgage, the lending arm of the nation’s largest homebuilder, Lennar Corporation. With more than 37 years of experience in mortgage banking, Escobar has led at every level — from branch management to executive leadership — in both bank-owned and independent mortgage companies and currently serves as the 2025 Chair of the Mortgage Bankers Association.
Escobar joins NHC President and CEO David Dworkin to discuss the Senate’s ROAD to Housing bill, FHFA’s roll out of alternative credit scores, the growing challenges of homeowners insurance, and how AI is reshaping mortgage finance.
