When Government Steps In: Mortgage Bonds, Rate Myths, and the Real Wealth Play
Mon Jan 26 2026
Work with Jimmy & the Vreeland Capital Team to build a 20-Unit Portfolio that will get you the equivalent of a retirement account 3X faster with a third of the capital. Visit https://tinyurl.com/mainstreetpatriot...
In this episode of The Real Estate Fast Pass, hosts Jimmy Vreeland and Susie Vreeland break down a headline making the rounds in the mortgage world and use it as a springboard to explain what actually moves 30-year mortgage rates. Jimmy unpacks how Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac support lending liquidity through mortgage-backed securities, why mortgage rates tend to track the 10-year Treasury, and what happens when big institutional buyers step in (or step out) of the bond market. From there, they zoom out to the bigger truth: even if rates dip, affordability doesn’t magically fix itself when the real constraint is housing supply—lower rates can just pour gasoline on demand and push prices higher.
If you’re trying to build long-term wealth, this conversation will help you tune out the noise, understand the system, and focus on the repeatable move: lock in smart, stable assets, use leverage responsibly, and keep stacking 30-year fixed “boats in the water” while everyone else is chasing headlines. About Jimmy Vreeland
Jimmy graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point,
spent 5 years as an Army Ranger, and deployed three times twice to Iraq
and once to Afghanistan. On his last deployment, he read Rich Dad Poor
Dad by Robert Kiyosaki which led him down the path of real estate
investing. As his own portfolio grew, eventually he started a real
estate investing business.

year to high performing, passive investors who want to work with his
team and his team is now managing over 800 houses.
