## Inflation, Recession, and the Shifting Lending Landscape

*GoDocs’ Monthly Marketing Minute digs into the trends impacting lending in 2025.*

The economy is shifting on a continuous basis, sometimes even daily, so what does that mean for commercial lenders and real estate investors? In this month’s GoDocs Market Minute, host [Joe Hawkins](https://www.linkedin.com/in/josephhawkins/)
 sits down with [Ren R Hayhurst](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ren-r-hayhurst/)
, Senior VP of Strategy at GoDocs, to break down the latest economic trends and regulatory changes shaking up the industry.

What’s on the agenda?

- Inflation vs. Recession—where are we really headed, and what are the impacts of either or both?

- Trade disputes and tariffs—how they’re impacting consumer and retail prices, manufacturing and supply costs and lending rates.

- The Fed’s next move—will interest rates go up or stay steady?

- State vs. Federal regulations—why lenders may be facing the potential of an emerging compliance patchwork.

- Market opportunities—where lending and investment opportunities are still expected to remain strong despite all of the expected economic uncertainty.

Don’t miss this quick but insightful breakdown of what’s happening and how lenders can stay ahead. Listen now!
