The Market Just Shifted: What the News ISN'T Telling You About Home Prices

Are you listening to the national headlines or your local experts? 🏡In this episode of the Listed Podcast, Olivia Hunsey and Aubra Palermo break down why the "national real estate news" you’re seeing on TV might be leading you astray. Especially if you're looking for a home in Southern Wisconsin or Northern Illinois. While big-city markets are seeing massive discounts, our local mid-range homes are still flying off the shelves in as little as 29 days. We’re also joined by Amanda Schwartz, a Mortgage Loan Officer at Black Hawk Community Credit Union. Amanda pulls back the curtain on the "gray areas" of lending, why local underwriting is a game-changer for buyers with unique situations, and why you should never "marry the rate".
