In case you are curious on the market, here is the latest report from Wisconsin Realtors Association

October 2021 Sales Report
Existing home sales dropped 12.3% between October 2020 and October 2021, even as median home prices rose 7.5% to $245,000 over the same period.
Year-to-date sales had been running well ahead of last year’s record pace for the first half of 2021, rising 9.7% compared to the first six months of the pandemic year. However, the last four months have seen sales slip 8.8% relative to that same period last year. The net effect is that through the first 10 months of the year, existing home sales are just 0.1% higher than year-to-date sales in 2020. In contrast, the year-to-date median price rose to $241,000, which is 9.5% ahead of last year’s median price for the January-through-October period
Indicators of inventory, including total listings, new listings and months of available supply, all fell over the last 12 months.
Inventory was tight in both rural and urban regions of the state. There were between 3 months and 3.5 months of available supply in every region, which is well below the benchmark of 6 months of supply that signals a balanced home market.
After five months of sub-3% mortgage rates, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage increased to 3.07% in October. This is a modest change of 20 basis points over the past 12 months.
The increase in the mortgage rate combined with rising home prices pushed affordability down. The Wisconsin Housing Affordability index fell 18.1% in October 2021 compared to October 2020. Still, a qualified buyer with a median family income, a healthy 20 percent down payment and with the remaining balance financed with a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage can afford to buy 188% of the median-priced home in the state in October. This compares favorably to the national index for September with the latest monthly figures available, which shows that the typical U.S. buyer can only purchase 151% of the median-priced U.S. home.

In 2021 the BW office is selling homes at 102.01% their list price and 17 days on market..... compared to the MLS average of 99.48% and 33 DOM. Using a list price of $350,000 for example, that means our history shows we will sell it for $357,035 vs. the MLS average selling it for only $348,180. That significantly higher sales price means we will earn a seller more at the closing table even when compared to firms that reduce their commission. Using these averages, we will make a seller $4,547 more than someone at 5% and $1,065 more than someone at 4%. Oh and we sell it faster too. It's not apples to apples when comparing firms and agents, we'll bring in a higher sales price which ends up netting a seller more. All sellers are rolling the dice when hiring a listing agent... who should they roll the dice with??... an agent, an office, and a firm with this kind of track record.

Has it really been a whole year?!

Today was especially meaningful for me as a veteran! Larry, a fellow veteran and now good friend came into my life at the beginning of my career and stuck with me until we closed on his dream house(and garage) today!

A heartfelt THANK YOU to the Shorewest Realtors - BW Office family and Shorewest Owners, community members, SJOA Church staff and members and friends for helping me to help a community member. It was a lot sweat, some tears and whole lot of work! Because of your time and generosity a special young lady was able to close on her childhood home and move on to the next chapter in her life. She is now able to begin college in the fall and I can't wait to see all of the great things she is surely going accomplish.
