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...
In this episode of the Accunet Mortgage and Realty Show, Brian Wickert and David Wickert explain what the Federal Reserve’s latest decision means for mortgage rates and why long-term rates can still move even when the Fed leaves its short-term rate unchanged. They also share a real-world example of how a stronger pre-approval, an appraisal waiver, verified income and assets, and a fast closing timeline helped a buyer present a more competitive offer. Brian and David discuss Accunet Mortgage’s...
The Accunet Mortgage and Realty Show: Rate Hikes, Rock Solid Offers, and a Maternity Leave Curveball Rates ticked up this week thanks to renewed tension in the Strait of Hormuz, so Brian Wickert and Tim Holdmann tackle the question every buyer eventually asks: lock now, or float and hope? Their answer comes down to one simple gut-check question that cuts through the anxiety. From there, Brian shares a live, in-progress deal: a first-time buyer in her 50s, a giant down payment, and a scramble ...
