Accunet Mortgage & Realty Show 10-11-2025: Market Insights and Client Success## Government Shutdown and Economic DataThe recent government shutdown left mortgage professionals without critical data like the jobs report. However, Bureau of Labor Statistics employees were recalled to complete the September Consumer Price Index report—needed for Social Security cost-of-living adjustments. This matters because CPI measures inflation, the primary driver of mortgage rates.## Global Markets Impact Your RateJapanese political developments unexpectedly moved U.S. mortgage rates this week. Coalition negotiations caused rates to rise Monday, then fall Friday when the coalition collapsed. While you shouldn't track Tokyo politics, this shows how rates reflect complex global factors beyond local conditions.## Rate Options: No Single AnswerThere's no single “rate today.” Borrowers choose different approaches—some pay no points, others buy down their rate. The decision depends on loan size, equity, timeline, and cash preferences. Choose what aligns with your financial strategy.## Southeastern Wisconsin MarketSeptember sales rose 3% year-over-year to 1,546 transactions, though 20% below pre-pandemic levels. About 60-65% of homeowners have rates under 4%, creating a “lock-in effect.”Median prices rose 7% to $362,500, but single-family homes ($390,000, up 10%) outpaced condos ($280,000, up 1.5%). Inventory is improving—new listings exceeded closings by 583 homes, creating a 2.5-month supply (still a seller's market but trending toward balance).Competition remains steady: 46% of homes sold above asking. With inflation stabilizing, buyers may be more selective, letting good homes move fast while mediocre properties linger.## Success Story: Value Acceptance WinsA buyer transitioning from Illinois won with a $20,000 over-ask offer using strategic advantages:- **Value Acceptance**: Property qualified for no-appraisal at their offer price—eliminating risk and delays- **Proactive Communication**: Calling the listing agent to highlight this advantage- **Speed**: 10% down ready, committed to 2.5-week closeLesson: Combine financial readiness, strategic advantages, clear communication, and speed.## Smart Down Payment StrategyA buyer planning $43,000 down (12%) explored alternatives: Every $1,000 in down payment changed their monthly payment by only $6.50. Keeping $10,000 in savings costs about $65 monthly—roughly two restaurant deliveries.For homes needing work, having cash for repairs might outweigh minimal payment savings.**Balance Three Factors**: Money leaving savings, money remaining for reserves, and monthly payment comfort. The best choice depends on your situation, not generic rules.## Refinance RealityDon't wait for a full percentage point drop. On a $500,000 loan, even 0.5% saves $244 monthly—nearly $3,000 annually. Consider absolute savings and break-even timeline, not arbitrary rules.## Key TakeawaysMarkets are complex and globally connected. The best mortgage matches your specific cash position, income trajectory, and goals—not one-size-fits-all advice. Competitive success requires financial readiness, speed, and understanding advantages like value acceptance. Local dynamics matter most. Cash versus equity decisions should reflect your priorities and circumstances, helping you find what works best for your life and financial situation.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Overseeing the organization's global brand, marketing, and communications strategy, she helps reach audiences across all 50 U.S. states and more than 70 countries. Amy is a seasoned communications leader passionate about using market insights to shape strategy and strengthen engagement worldwide.Five things you'll learn from this episode:1. How to leverage market insights to shape and guide PR strategy2. The balance of art, science, and passion in effective strategic planning3. Practical ways communicators can advocate for audiences at the strategy table4. How messaging and strategy must stay in lockstep to maintain credibility and consistency across audiences5. How brand perception gaps create opportunities for stronger audience engagement Quotables“The human brain always absorbs things best in threes. And communications know if you've got 15 priorities, you have no priorities. When setting priorities, it has to be a clear way to say yes and to say no. If it doesn't give you the ability to say no, then it's not really helping you set a strategy.” — Amy Dunham“You can't have good communication or public relations strategy without messaging. They're in lockstep together.” — @JasonMudd9“To really stand out in PR, whatever you're doing, is to make sure you're saying things that are provocative, contrary, and have a unique point of view from what everybody else is saying because otherwise, you're just going to blend in and not stand out.” — @JasonMudd9“It's not a conversation about ‘I know better' versus ‘you know better.' It's much more about ‘Here's what the data indicates, and now here's the flexibility to be able to use it in the way that works best in your market.'” — Amy Dunham“It's really through the lens of ‘How can I add value in a way to enable their work?' rather than to direct how things should get done.” — Amy DunhamIf you enjoyed this episode, please take a moment to share it with a colleague or friend.
