## Resource

In this week's episode of The Mortgage Guy Podcast, we break down how the government shutdown is impacting the USDA loan program, and why this matters for buyers and agents in rural areas. We'll also dive into a new service we're rolling out to help homeowners challenge recent property tax reassessments — especially in counties like Logan and Champaign where values have jumped significantly. We'll cover: What happens when USDA stops issuing conditional commitments Why November 4th is a key deadline (and how the housing ratio change could affect approvals) And how our new property tax appeal service can help you fight inflated county assessments — at no cost to you If you're a borrower, homeowner, or local agent, this episode is packed with insight you'll want to hear. 📲 Contact Adam J.
