You may also want to mention how he charges appraisers to extract their data. Wow, what a stand up guy.

Rayburn, as always, deflected. But he does admit FNC opens and pull's (captures) the data (because he believes the lender "owns" the data) because there's a "ton" of data in the 1004 form.

The FNC story and discussion on where we've been and likely headed as told in Dr. Rayburn's straight from the hip style, made for an outstanding interview. I for one gained some key insights which I will definitely reflect upon as I navigate this market cycle. I hope Dr. Rayburn is a regular guest!
