Accunet Mortgage & Realty Show 4-18-26

David Wickert and Tim Holdmann break down why rates are no longer the headline-grabber clients think they are. Life happens — twins on the way, a bigger yard, aging parents, a move to Florida — and the right house matters far more than chasing a perfect rate. As David and Tim put it: upgrade the mortgage later, but get the house now.The duo dig into the one-year lender-paid temporary rate buydown, explaining how front-loading your savings into the first twelve months of a mortgage often makes more sense than spreading it thin across thirty years you probably won’t keep the loan for anyway. They share real client stories, including a homeowner halfway through a buydown who now has the chance to reset the clock at no loan cost — cake, meet fork.Plus: a Wisconsin homeowner headed to Florida learns there’s a smoother way to fund the purchase than liquidating retirement accounts and triggering a tax bill. The answer was sitting in his Wisconsin equity the whole time.Mortgage consulting, Accunet-style: ask more questions, learn before prescribing, and always give clients choice.
