FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM (THE FED)

The Federal Reserve, often called The Fed, is the central banking system of the United States, similar to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). It was established in 1913 to provide the country with a safe, flexible, and stable monetary and financial system. The Fed regulates U.S. banks, controls the money supply, sets interest rates, issues currency, and works to maintain inflation and employment levels. It operates independently within the government and plays a crucial role in ensuring the stability of the U.S. economy.

HOW THE FED INFLUENCES MORTGAGE

Controls interest rates that influence mortgage costs

Regulates banks to ensure fair lending

Coordinates with the CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau), which sets mortgage rules like loan disclosures, borrower protections, and qualified mortgage standards

“SmartKey Lending helped us close on our first home with just 3.5% down. We were nervous as first-time buyers, but their team explained everything and stayed in touch until the keys were in our hands!”

Teacher & First-Time Homebuyer

As an investor, I’ve worked with several lenders — but none as responsive and efficient as SmartKey. Their DSCR program helped me secure two rental properties within 60 days. Highly recommend them!”
