Join Brian Wickert and David Wickert for expert insights on Milwaukee's real estate and mortgage landscape. In this episode, they dissect the proposed 50-year mortgage—calculating that once you account for higher interest rates on longer terms, the payment savings is immaterial.From the front lines, David shares stories about creative financing strategies, including helping clients leverage second homes to purchase land and guiding homeowners through 15-year vs. 30-year refinancing decisions. The duo explores why Milwaukee's market has become “twos and tens”—where great listings get 10 offers instantly while others struggle.

In this episode of Investor Connect, Hall Martin speaks with Iga Hallberg, Business Development Lead at EV Realty, which develops, deploys, and operates grid-ready charging hubs for commercial fleets. The discussion encompasses Hallberg's extensive experience in electrification and renewable energy, focusing on the creation of sophisticated commercial vehicle charging hubs. Backed by significant private equity investments, EV Realty aims to develop a national network of these sites, primarily in regions like California, Washington, New York, and New Jersey. The conversation shifts to the investable thesis for charging infrastructure, highlighting substantial trends in commercial fleet electrification, particularly within major ports and urban centers. Hallberg elaborates on the criticality of power access, grid constraints, and the strategic partnerships forming to support large-scale infrastructure projects. Hallberg delves into the main business models in the charging hub market, explaining how different sectors like last mile delivery, ride-share, and school buses influence infrastructure design and financing. She notes the growing involvement of real estate developers and utility companies in providing charging solutions and discusses the importance of de-risking projects through solid customer contracts. With the sector witnessing the transition from pilot projects to fully-financed infrastructure assets, Hallberg emphasizes the transformative impact of this shift on the broader energy and mobility landscape. The podcast also touches on the current challenges and opportunities in the industry, such as navigating federal and state policies, adapting to changes in the incentive landscape, and optimizing returns through strategic site selection. The episode concludes with a look at successful past projects and insights into optimal partnership structures between developers, utilities, real estate owners, and fleet operators. Hallberg highlights the significance of energy as a service and its potential to revolutionize various segments, from heavy-duty commercial vehicles to light-duty passenger electric vehicles. Listeners are encouraged to consider the evolving dynamics of the electric vehicle charging market and the compelling investment opportunities it presents.

**The Accunet Mortgage and Realty Show - Halloween Edition 2025**This week's spooky surprise? Mortgage rates rose *after* the Fed cut rates—for the fourth time in a row. Brian and David Wickert explain why Chair Powell's press conference spooked markets more than the rate cut helped, and what it means for your financing options.**Real Client Wins:**A Milwaukee-area buyer beat 10 competing offers on a $500K+ home using strategic appraisal waivers and smart negotiation—proving competitive markets still favor prepared buyers with solid financing.Another homeowner locked in a refinance at 6.375% (from 6.99%), saving monthly without realizing they'd been sitting “in the money” for months. If your rate is 6.99% or higher on a loan over $250K, you might be leaving savings on the table.A first-time buyer secured a $10,000 forgivable grant through Wisconsin's county consortium—but navigating the Wednesday-only inspections and strict requirements required careful coordination between buyer, seller, and lender.**Market Reality Check:**National inventory is up just 4% from pre-pandemic levels, but local markets tell wildly different stories. Denver? Up 96%. Milwaukee? Down 38%. Your neighborhood matters more than national headlines.Whether you're refinancing, buying competitively, or maximizing down payment assistance, the Accunet team is ready to advise and assist.

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.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

# Putting the Puzzle Pieces Together: Why Smart Mortgage Design MattersWhen clients come to us with their home financing goals, they usually arrive with a clear picture in mind: “I want to borrow this amount” or “I need to refinance my current loan.” And that's a great starting point. But here's what we've learned after years of helping families navigate mortgages—the first idea isn't always the best solution.The real value comes from asking better questions and designing a strategy that works for your specific situation.## Begin With the End in MindRecently, a client contacted us about purchasing a $1.5 million home on the North Shore. They had $300,000 ready for the down payment and wanted to borrow $1.2 million. Simple, right?Not quite. As we talked through their full situation, we learned they had significant equity in their current home, which they'd sell after moving into the new property. They also had good—but not great—credit scores around 740.Here's where mortgage design matters: a $1.2 million jumbo loan with that credit profile would have meant an interest rate north of 7%. But by thinking through the complete picture, we found a better path.We helped them take a second mortgage on their current home to free up equity, then combined that with their cash savings for a larger down payment on the new house. This brought their loan amount under the conforming limit of $806,500, where Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac offer better pricing. The result? A rate in the mid-5% range with no loan costs—and they'd already planned to pay off both mortgages when their old house sold anyway.Same goal. Same end result. Dramatically different monthly payment.## When Family Wants to HelpBuying a home from family members comes with its own unique challenges. Parents and grandparents naturally want to give their children a good deal, but without proper guidance, generosity can sometimes work against everyone's best interests.We recently worked with a family where the parents planned to sell their home to their children for $400,000—well below the $500,000 market value. They were worried about gift tax implications and had carefully calculated a $72,000 gift of equity to stay within annual limits.But here's what most people don't realize: structuring the sale at market value actually creates better loan terms for the buyers. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac reward larger down payments with better pricing, and credit scores matter less when you're putting 40% down instead of 20%.The gift of equity works exactly the same either way—it's just structured differently on paper. And for most families, the gift tax concern is overblown. Unless the parents have an estate worth over $30 million, they simply file an extra form with the IRS noting the gift against their lifetime exemption.We connected the family with a qualified tax professional to confirm the approach, then structured the transaction to give the children better financing while the parents still provided the same generous gift. Everyone won.## The Stealth Refinance StrategyMortgage rules change regularly, and staying current on those changes is how we help clients maximize their options. Recently, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac updated their definition of a “no cash-out” refinance—the kind that gets better pricing than a traditional cash-out loan.The new rule allows borrowers to receive the *greater* of $2,000 or 1% of the loan balance at closing while still qualifying for standard refinance rates. For a $400,000 loan, that's $4,000 instead of the old $2,000 limit.

**Accunet Mortgage & Realty Show: Smart Money Moves and Market Updates**This week's episode breaks down why mortgage rates can move independently of Federal Reserve decisions – valuable insight for anyone timing a home purchase or refinance. The key takeaway: focus on your personal financial situation rather than trying to predict rate movements.The standout story involves a homeowner who discovered something brilliant: even though refinancing meant giving up a great rate, consolidating high-interest credit card debt into their mortgage saved them significant money monthly. The lesson? Always calculate your total debt picture, not just your mortgage rate in isolation.Another practical scenario shows how family members can successfully structure cash offers while still allowing adult children to qualify for financing. The process requires coordination between all parties and the lender, but it's completely doable with proper planning.The episode also covers an important credit topic: authorized user accounts can sometimes complicate mortgage approval. If you're planning to buy a home and you're an authorized user on someone else's credit card, discuss this with your lender early in the process.Local market update: Milwaukee continues to see strong price appreciation and limited inventory, making it crucial for buyers to get properly pre-approved before house hunting. For those considering refinancing, the window remains open for borrowers who can demonstrate clear financial benefits from the transaction.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
