Rates jumped the most in four years, the jobs report missed by a mile, and the mortgage-backed securities chart looked like a roller coaster. In this week's Accunet Mortgage and Realty Show, Brian Wickert and Tim Holdmann break down what's moving the market and what it means for your next move. Brian and Tim unpack the October 2nd headlines from a weak 29,000-job report and explain why "what's your rate?" is only half the question. The real question is what it costs to get that rate. Then Tim...
Rates climbed again this week, and plenty of nervous buyers stepped off to the sidelines. Brian and David argue that's exactly why serious buyers should lean in. Fewer competitors, softer seller expectations, and a market that's cooling just enough to create opportunity. David breaks down the old mortgage maxim that people don't buy houses, they buy payments, and shows how a modest rate bump translates into real purchasing power. They also explain why every house is its own market, from a bra...
A jump in rates this week after a volatile stretch of Iran tensions, rising oil prices, and hotter than expected inflation data (PPI and CPI). Headlines are already framing it as bad news, but David Wickert and Tim Holdman break down why it's actually good news for home shoppers right now. They walk through the real math: on a $300,000 mortgage, the week's rate movement added just $51 to the monthly payment. Not the doom and gloom the clickbait suggests. Tim explains why rising rates thin out...
Brian Wickert and David Wickert of Accunet Mortgage break down two winning offers and what August numbers actually say about the southeastern Wisconsin market. First, after 87 days on market and a recent $50,000 price cut, a home suddenly drew competition, but the buyer’s original plan was to sit tight and see if his offer got accepted. Instead, Brian pulled the parents, the spouse, and the buyer’s agent onto one call. Why an escalator clause is both a good and mediocre tool, how a 15-day clo...
Rates Ticked Up, But Buyers Aren’t Backing Down Commentary coming out of the Federal Reserve’s Jackson Hole conference send the 10-year Treasury back toward 4.7%, and Brian Wickert and Tim Holdmann break down exactly what that means for today’s mortgage rates, including Accunet’s current no-point, low-point, and rate buster options. Despite headlines claiming buyers are pulling back, the local data says otherwise. Realtor.com’s Market Clock still shows the area as a strong seller’s market, an...
No Regrets, No Lull: Real Stories From the Front Lines of Home Buying David Wickert and Tim Holdmann are back with three fresh success stories proving there’s no such thing as a summer slowdown in real estate. First up: a couple who’ve owned their home since the Clinton administration finally catch their dream house after three years of searching — offering 13% over list price to secure a place where their adult son, who lives with them for medical reasons, will be taken care of long after th...
State Fair Season, No-Regrets Offers, and the New World of Condo Financing David Wickert and Tim Holdmann kick off this episode with some Wisconsin State Fair love before diving into the real estate action heating up despite the calendar turning toward fall. Tim shares the play-by-play of helping a Wauwatosa first-time buyer navigate a multiple-offer situation—walking through the math on escalating an offer, waiving the appraisal contingency strategically, and structuring a lightning-fast fin...
This week on the Accunet Mortgage and Realty Show, hosts Brian Wickert and Tim Holdmann break down why the interest rate you get quoted matters far less than what you actually pay to get it. They walk through real current rate scenarios — comparing a lower rate with hefty discount points against a higher rate with minimal costs — and show how the “cheaper-sounding” rate can actually cost more over time. They also revisit their popular “Rate Buster” buydown option and share a client story of s...
