Fun Fact 1: Every fall, pumpkins steal the spotlight with multiple purposes: as decorations, for soups and in pies. But here’s a fun fact backed by science: this seasonal favorite is actually a fruit. They are scientifically classified as fruits because of how they grow. Anything that starts from a flower is classified botanically as a fruit.

Fun Fact 3: How loyal are people to their lender? Across the five markets surveyed, 56% of Gen Z buyers described themselves as “True Loyal,” meaning they would stay with a lender they trust. That compares with 39% of Millennials, 41% of Gen X and 43% of Boomers.
Only 5% of Gen Z said they would always choose the lowest rate. Among Baby Boomers, the oldest cohort surveyed, that figure was 29%.
Surprisingly, the generation with the easiest access to comparison tools appears to have the strongest appetite for a lasting mortgage relationship.
