One of the reasons there’s poor management in the mortgage sector is the lack of education. People end up in managing positions, without really understanding the full landscape, and that affects how the entire industry develops and influences the lives of so many people.

It’s time for some change, don’t you agree?


Ralph intends to disrupt the way you think about the mortgage industry, the way you see the business, and the way you do business. He encourages people to think outside the box, take some shots, and try different things.


In today’s episode, I am joined by my friend, Ralph, who is living proof that you can form friendships in business and business in friendships. We take the pulse of the mortgage industry today, stressing the need for more education – both for buyers and sellers - and we dive into predictions for the foreseeable future.


Ralph Dibugnara is a nationally recognized mortgage expert and a frequent real estate industry commentator, featured in CNBC, Fox Business, Forbes, Huffington Post, and several other top-tier media outlets. With over 15+ years of experience, he is the President of Home Qualified and Vice President at Cardinal Financial, and focuses on the millennial demographic and redefining the role of the banker in today’s buyer-centric real estate market.


A frequent industry commentator, Ralph is laser-focused on the trends and tides of the new world real estate game, so listen to Episode 39 of Deposit That, to learn the latest tendencies in this industry, especially with everything that’s going on in the US, today.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
