In this episode of the Residential Remix Podcast, Dennis and Derek welcome a special guest—Derek's brother, Javier Infiesta—who brings 25 years of expertise in the mortgage industry. This episode is packed with stories, insights, and humor as the trio dives into both personal memories and professional experiences.
Javier, who Derek calls the "Mortgage Godfather," shares some fascinating stories about the evolution of the mortgage industry, including the time he won a BMW in a national sales contest and why he sold it the next day. They also discuss what it was like working in the subprime mortgage space during the early 2000s, the rise and fall of different interest rates, and how the industry has changed since then.
As the episode moves along, the brothers joke about their childhood memories, like Javier’s fondness for stealing Derek's G.I. Joes, and the relentless teasing that shaped their relationship. They also touch on the modern-day challenges and strategies in both the real estate and mortgage industries, including how to find business and the value of cold calling in the past versus today's use of social media.
The conversation shifts into more lighthearted territory as they joke about Derek’s notorious birthday month celebrations, complete with planned parties at venues in downtown West Palm Beach. Throughout, there's plenty of banter about music, including Javier’s new love for "Healing House" music, and whether he’ll ever follow in Derek’s DJ footsteps.
This episode is a fun blend of industry knowledge, brotherly bonding, and laughter—offering listeners a mix of mortgage wisdom, family tales, and event-planning secrets.
