Midweek Market Report: Why Creating a Financial Snapshot Today Unlocks Real Estate Success
By Eric Willner, Investor, Coach, and Host of The Real Estate Show, America’s longest running daily radio show about real estate.
Welcome to The Real Estate Show – South Florida’s #1 Real Estate Radio Show and America’s longest running daily radio show about real estate. My name is Eric Willner, known as the Voice of Real Estate and founder of America’s longest running daily radio show about real estate and also creator of The Automatic Landlord System for Owning Cash Flowing Real Estate “Profitably and Hassle-Free.” This show is a virtual real estate seminar in every episode.
This is the Wednesday Midweek Mortgage & Market Report Edition of The Real Estate Show, where we continue to talk about why NOW is the right time to buy real estate.
Everyone is in Real Estate! Either you are IN real estate because you own it, searched it, negotiated it, and closed on it—enjoying the pride of ownership, tax benefits, and long-term appreciation. Or, you are ON real estate, paying rent directly or indirectly through your employer’s lease.
Today’s theme is: Create a Solid Foundation For Real Estate Investing By Creating a Financial Snapshot of Today.
Did you know?
These are just a few reasons why you need to understand where you stand financially. Today’s show is about why knowing your numbers is crucial to real estate success. Creating a Financial Snapshot Today is the first step to buying smart.
Before we dive into the data, a quick reminder of our upcoming FREE workshops:

This week we’ve been discussing how to create your financial foundation. Monday and Tuesday we talked about net worth, budgeting, debt, credit, and emergency savings. Today, let’s connect those tools to what’s happening right now in the mortgage and housing market.
Today’s Mortgage Market Update (Source: BankRate.com)
Top rate offer on site: 6.11%
The Fed held rates steady again, but inflation at 2.4% is still above their 2% goal. That’s why mortgage rates have remained elevated. Add to that slow spring homebuying season, and you get a mixed message: buyers are cautious, but the deals are still there!
And let’s talk headlines:
“Homebuyers finally responded, after mortgage rates hit lowest level in three months.”
Key Points:
What it means: This dip gave buyers just enough confidence to act. It’s proof that opportunities are out there, even with higher interest rates. Demand surged, especially among buyers who had been waiting on the sidelines. Knowing your financial position means you can ACT when opportunity knocks!
"Homebuyer demand is being fueled by increasing housing inventory and moderating home-price growth," said Joel Kan of the MBA. Even though overall market sentiment is uncertain, those who are prepared are stepping in.
This ties directly back to our Financial Snapshot theme. If you don’t know your net worth, monthly expenses, credit score, or financing options, you’ll miss the window when it opens.
Most searched real estate topics right now include:
That means people are curious, motivated, and looking for answers. But without a clear financial picture, information overload causes confusion.

Let’s continue our conversation with a troubling but important article:
Headline: First-time home sales are tanking
Key Insights:
First-time homebuyers are disappearing. Why? Because affordability is out of reach. But that’s not the whole story. As I always say: This is not just a money issue; it’s a STRATEGY issue.
Too many buyers get pre-approved but not prepared. You need a written plan, a credit score that qualifies you for the best rates, and a debt-to-income ratio that works. This is why we host our workshops, and why we teach our listeners how to Create a Financial Snapshot Today. Text the word “Edge” to 561-861-2366 right now to change your financial future today!
This isn’t just a housing story. It’s an economic story.
As the WSJ noted: even big builders like Lennar are offering deep discounts to entice buyers. You need to be prepared, because competition is down and opportunities are quietly increasing.
And here’s something else: rents are on the rise again. Vacancy rates are down. The rental market is tightening.
And what’s the best hedge against rising rents? OWNING real estate!
So what should YOU do now?
