On this week’s Accunet Mortgage & Realty Show, Brian and David Wickert break down how Middle East military action rippled through the mortgage market — and why the Friday jobs report, which showed a surprising loss of jobs, didn’t move rates the way you’d expect. The takeaway: rates are hovering right where forecasters predicted, and the next big catalyst may not arrive until early April.
From there, the conversation shifts to what’s actually happening on the ground in southeastern Wisconsin. Kenosha landed the number one hottest market in the nation for the second straight month according to Realtor.com, with Racine and Milwaukee not far behind. New listings in the five-county metro area ticked up in February, and buyers are out in force.
Brian and David also walk through real client scenarios, including navigating a future-income qualification for buyers relocating across state lines, the licensing wrinkles that come with job transfers, and a creative family financing strategy where a father co-owns a property with his son to help him upgrade homes without ratcheting up the monthly payment.
