I was inspired by another business in Verona - Verona Bounce - to give more this holiday season. I put together 5 Aldi bags of Thanksgiving goodies (from stuffing to vegs to cornbread + brownies) to donate to those in need. This was less than $85 for 5 bags!
We challenge you to fill and give 1 bag of Thanksgiving supplies to someone who could really use it.

It sounds like the current administration is working on a 50 year mortgage. There's definitely pros and cons. What are your thoughts?

Trump supports 50-year mortgages to lower monthly payments, but longer terms reduce equity and aren't supported under current mortgage rules.

Don't trust the Zillow Zestimate, here's why...

Data shows that the median error rate for homes on the market is about 2.4% (that's not bad), but the rate of error for homes off market is 7.5%. This means they are relying on a real estate agents list price to hone in on the accuracy.

Additionally, do you remember the Zillow Offers program a few years ago? They lost $880 million dollars flipping houses based on their own pricing estimates. That will make you want to trust their accuracy.

Below is an example of our home's estimate. There's a lot of data in our neighborhood, and the homes are newer (10-18 years old), so it should be really easy to value. Based on the recent comparable sales I think our home would be about $555,000. So our home is almost 9% off.

But we still have several buyers looking for homes around Verona, Fitchburg, Middleton, and west Madison.
If you’ve been thinking about selling (or even just curious what your home could sell for), please reach out to us. Your home might be exactly what one of my buyers is waiting for (and yes we can save you some commission if we can create a win win deal)!

Good news for buyers: rates have dipped a bit (some lenders advertising 6.125%), inventory is up, and competition has cooled compared to this summer. That means more options and less stress. If you’ve been waiting for the right time, fall 🍁 in Wisconsin might be it.
