Midweek Market Report: Mortgage Rates Stabilize—Are You Busy, Broke, or Finally Building Wealth?
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 the 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.
And today is the Wednesday Midweek Mortgage & Market Report Edition of The Real Estate Show—the day each week where we zoom out, check the financial dashboard, look under the hood of the housing market, talk mortgages, money, momentum… and most importantly, talk strategy.
Because Wednesday is about clarity.
It’s about asking yourself a tough but necessary question:
Busy, Broke, or Building? How to Tell Which Path You’re Actually On
Everyone Is IN Real Estate—The Only Question Is HOW
Let’s reset the conversation right here.
Everyone is IN real estate.You’re either IN it… or you’re ON it.
That’s not judgment. That’s math.
And here’s the bottom line that most people never calculate:
For a homeowner who pays off their mortgage, financial freedom means living on a dramatically reduced budget.
For a renter, financial freedom requires building a much larger nest egg—just to keep up with a perpetual, ever-increasing rent payment.
Same goal. Two very different paths.
Busy, Broke, or Building? Let’s Call It What It Is
This week’s theme started on Monday for a reason.
Because most people feel busy, but don’t know if they’re actually making progress.
Being busy doesn’t mean you’re building.
And being broke doesn’t always mean you don’t earn money—it often means you don’t own assets.
So let me define these clearly:
Wednesday is where we separate motion from momentum.
Did You Know? Three Questions You Should Be Asking Right Now
Let me drop three Did You Know? questions that tie directly into today’s market—and today’s theme.
Did you know… that mortgage rates have now stabilized in a narrow range for months, creating one of the clearest planning windows we’ve seen since 2022—yet most buyers are still waiting for a “perfect” rate that may never arrive?
Did you know… that rising cancellation rates are actually shifting power back to prepared buyers—those who are positioned, qualified, and decisive—while casual buyers get shaken out?
Did you know… that homeowners who bought years ago are increasingly feeling pressure—not because homeownership failed, but because they never built a financial buffer or written plan?
Busy. Broke. Or Building.
That’s the fork in the road.
Today’s Show Is About ONE Thing
Today’s show is about:Busy, Broke, or Building? How to Tell Which Path You’re Actually On—and why understanding that distinction is critical to succeeding in real estate.
Before we get into the meat of the show, let me remind you about this week’s FREE Workshops, because education is the difference between reaction and strategy.
This Week’s FREE Workshops

Here Are the Top Trending Topics for Today’s Update
Let’s talk mortgages—because this is the Midweek Mortgage & Market Report.
According to Bankrate, here’s where we are right now.
Today’s National 30-Year Mortgage Interest Rate Trends
As of Tuesday, February 3, 2026:
That’s another flat, stable week—and stability equals planning power.
Since rates hit a 2025 low of 6.25% in late October, they haven’t moved much.
And let me say this clearly, because it still gets misunderstood:
The Federal Reserve does NOT dictate mortgage rates.
Yes, the Fed sets short-term rates.Mortgage rates move based on investor sentiment, mortgage-backed securities, and are closely tied to the 10-Year Treasury yield.
Last week proved it again.
The Fed held rates steady—yet mortgage rates dipped to 6.18%, matching the lowest level since 2022.
Housing economists from the Mortgage Bankers Association and Fannie Mae expect rates to remain between 6% and 6.5% for the foreseeable future.
Michael Fratantoni of the MBA said this level of rates could support a stronger spring market—not a breakout, but a healthier one.
And here’s the psychology:
Bill Banfield from Rocket Mortgage says when rates dip below 5.99%, buyer demand jumps 30%.
Why?
Because rates in the 5s flip a mental switch.
If you want to position yourself before the crowd moves, Text EDGE to 561-861-2366Get educated. Get prepared. Get ahead.
Top Rate Offer we’re seeing: 5.63%National averages:
And tomorrow—on the ATM Edition – About The Money—we’ll talk about how people are getting rates in the 4s and investor loans in the 5s.
Prepare Early—This Is Where Builders Win
Whether you need a mortgage now or next year, preparation is everything.
Get a PQ. Know your numbers.We also have inside info on two new mortgage products and a DPA program that’s about to make waves—including soft credit pull options.
Text LOAN to 561-861-2366
Busy people react.Builders prepare.
Big News Article #1 – Affordability Is Pressuring Homeowners Too
Let’s rewrite the headline in real terms:
Housing Pressure Isn’t Just Squeezing Buyers—Unprepared Homeowners Are Feeling It Too
Key takeaways, in plain English:
Data from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis shows overall delinquencies remain historically low.
Americans owe over $13 trillion on mortgages, per LendingTree.
Home prices are easing—but still elevated, with long-term appreciation shown by the S&P Case-Shiller.
This matters because homeownership done without planning leads to stress.Homeownership done with strategy leads to freedom.
That’s Busy vs. Building.
You can read more at AutomaticLandlord.com.
Big News Article #2 – Cancellations Are Surging
Let’s rewrite this one honestly:
Homebuyers Are Walking Away—And That’s Creating Opportunity for the Prepared
According to Redfin:
Chen Zhao from Redfin said buyers are getting selective—and that’s good news if you’re ready.
Markets like Atlanta, Jacksonville, Tampa saw higher cancellations.
Why does this matter?
Because fear creates negotiation leverage.
Buyers who are qualified, educated, and confident are stepping into opportunities others walk away from.
That’s not being busy.That’s building.
Final Call to Action

Tuesday Tools, Tips & Techniques: How to Escape the Busy-Broke Cycle with 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.It’s a virtual real estate seminar in every episode.”
Take a breath.Lean in.Because today’s Tuesday Tools, Tips, and Techniques show is where motivation turns into execution.
Yesterday, on Monday On A Mission, we framed the question that matters more than almost any other financial question you can ask yourself:
Are you busy, broke, or building?
Today, we answer the next question:
What do you DO about it?
Did You Know? (Today’s Reality Check)
Did you know that a majority of Americans earning six figures still live paycheck to paycheck—not because they don’t make enough money, but because they don’t own enough assets?
Did you know that renters are exposed to 100% of inflation with none of the protection ownership provides—while homeowners historically gain both appreciation and rent-replacement savings?
Did you know that many real estate investors fail not because of bad deals—but because poor credit and excessive consumer debt block access to opportunity?
These are just a few of the alarming statistics and realities in today’s economy. And they matter, because awareness gives you the ability to plan, prepare, and pivot.
These “Did You Know?” moments highlight the critical role homeownership plays in Americans’ lives—and the challenges people face when they don’t own:lower credit scores, higher debt burdens, rising rents, and long-term vulnerability.
And remember this truth:
Everyone is in real estate.
You’re either IN real estate—because you bought it, searched it, negotiated it, closed it, and enjoy the pride and benefits of ownership…
Or you’re ON real estate—paying rent directly, or indirectly through your employer, paying those who are in real estate.
Today, let’s talk about actions—the actions that lead to success or failure—and how to truly understand our theme:
Our mission here is simple and powerful:to transform lives through affordable real estate.To empower, educate, and enable families and individuals to enjoy the American Dream of homeownership.
And to do that, you must understand income.
The 3 Types of Income (And Why They Matter)
We all start with active income.The goal is to build enough passive income to gain freedom—whether that means retirement, flexibility, or choice.
Real estate is one of the few vehicles that touches all three types of income.
Today’s show is brought to you by TimeToFixMyCredit.com.If credit is holding you back from building wealth through real estate, now is the time to fix it. Text “CREDIT” to 561-861-2366.
Tools & Techniques: Turning Yesterday’s Ideas into Action
Yesterday, I gave you 9 reasons why it’s critical to know whether you’re busy, broke, or building.
Today, we turn those reasons into ACTION.
Here Are 9 Steps to Move from Busy or Broke to BUILDING
These are not theories.They are tools—and tools only work when you pick them up and use them.

Busy, Broke, or Building? How to Tell Which Financial Path You’re Really On
By Eric Willner, Investor and Host of The Real Estate Show, America’s longest running daily radio show about real estate.
Monday On A Mission: Why This Matters Right Now
Today is the Monday On A Mission Edition of The Real Estate Show, where we talk about why NOW is the time to buy real estate, using today’s theme:
Today’s show is about the WHY—why you need to know which path you’re on, and why clarity is the starting point for real estate and financial success.
This week, we’ll discuss strategies to optimize your finances, including:
Knowing how these work—and how they work together—is essential to any real plan for real estate and financial success.
Before we get into the meat of the show, let me remind you of this week’s FREE online workshops:
You want to attend these because real estate requires skill, strategy, adaptability, and determination to cross the finish line successfully.
Everyone Is in Real Estate
You’re either IN real estate—because you own it, searched it, negotiated it, closed on it, and enjoy the pride and benefits of ownership—
Or you’re ON real estate—paying rent directly, or indirectly through an employer who pays the rent for your workplace.
The road to financial victory isn’t always straight—but it is exhilarating. And we want you on that road with us.

(Station Identification)
Part Two: Busy, Broke, or Building—Let’s Break It Down
Welcome back. This is The Real Estate Show, and today we’re asking you to get honest with yourself.
This week in our workshops, we’ll show you why the question Busy, Broke, or Building? matters—and then we’ll tell you what to do about it.
Ten Reasons You Must Know Which Path You’re On
Each of these reasons points to one truth: you can’t fix what you refuse to measure.
The Four Major Roadblocks—and How This Theme Helps You Win
When you address these four roadblocks using the lens of Busy, Broke, or Building, you give yourself a real chance to win.
Roadblock #1: Government and Taxes
Taxes are often the largest single expense a household faces. Real estate offers legal strategies—depreciation, deductions, and business use—that can dramatically reduce taxable income. Builders learn the rules and use them. The busy ignore them. The broke feel crushed by them.
Roadblock #2: Interest and Finance Charges
High-interest debt quietly steals your future. Builders understand how to restructure, consolidate, and strategically use debt—especially when replacing consumer debt with asset-backed debt that can generate income.
Roadblock #3: Uncontrolled Monthly Bills
Recurring expenses grow by default unless managed deliberately. Builders audit expenses, renegotiate bills, and redirect savings into assets. This single habit can unlock cash flow you didn’t know you had.
Roadblock #4: Inflation—the Silent Killer
Inflation erodes savings every year. Real estate, historically, has been one of the most effective hedges—because rents and values tend to rise over time. Builders own assets that adjust with inflation instead of being crushed by it.
Let me remind you again—because this matters:You can turn debt into wealth in real estate.If you want to change your financial picture, take the first step now— Text the word “CREDIT” to 561-861-2366.
Today’s Takeaway
Today’s show was about awareness with purpose. Busy, Broke, or Building isn’t a judgment—it’s a diagnostic. Once you know where you are, you can choose where you’re going. And real estate, when used intentionally, becomes one of the most powerful tools to move from survival to strategy—and from strategy to freedom.
Tomorrow is our Tuesday Tools, Tips, and Techniques Edition of The Real Estate Show—and you do not want to miss the resources and insights we’ll share to help you profit and succeed in the real estate world.
Thank you for listening—but remember, don’t just listen. Use this show to get started in real estate investing, to change your life, and to build a future on purpose. Tune in every weekday for The Real Estate Show—a literal seminar in every episode.

Midweek Market Report: Insider Information You’re Allowed to Use in Today’s Housing Market
Insider Information You’re Allowed to Use: How Real Estate Really Works
Hosted by Eric Willner – The Voice of 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, founder of America’s longest running daily radio show about real estate, and creator of The Automatic Landlord System for Owning Cash-Flowing Real Estate Profitably and Hassle-Free.
And today is the Wednesday Midweek Mortgage & Market Report Edition of The Real Estate Show — the day we cut through headlines, fear, and noise, and talk about what is actually happening right now in real estate, mortgages, and money.
This is also where we continue the conversation we launched on Monday around this powerful theme:
Everyone Is IN Real Estate
Let’s reset the frame before we dive into numbers.
Everyone is IN real estate.
You are either IN real estate because you OWN it —You searched it.Negotiated it.Closed on it.You have pride of ownership, tax benefits, long-term appreciation, and control.
Or you are ON real estate —Paying rent directly,Or indirectly, by working for an employer who pays rent to someone else.
Either way…You are supporting someone’s real estate.
The question is whose.
The Bottom Line: Owners vs. Renters
Here’s a truth that doesn’t get talked about enough.
For a homeowner who pays off their mortgage, financial freedom often means living on a dramatically reduced budget in retirement. Housing costs drop. Predictability increases. Life becomes more manageable.
For a renter, financial freedom requires building a much larger investment portfolio — just to keep up with perpetual, ever-increasing rent payments.
That difference alone explains why ownership changes everything.
Insider Information You’re Allowed to Use
Today’s show is about Insider Information You’re Allowed to Use: How Real Estate Really Works — and why understanding this is critical to building a real plan for success.
Let me ask you three current, market-driven “Did You Know?” questions:
Did you know that even with mortgage rates hovering in the low-to-mid 6% range, investors continue buying because cash flow and tax strategy matter more than short-term rate fluctuations?
Did you know that the majority of wealth built through real estate comes not from appreciation alone, but from amortization, depreciation, and inflation working in your favor?
Did you know that periods of rate stability — not rate drops — are historically some of the best windows to buy, because sellers adjust faster than buyers?
That’s insider information — not illegal, not hidden — just rarely explained.
Why Today’s Show Matters
Today’s show is about how real estate really works and why understanding the mechanics — not the emotion — leads to better decisions.
Before we get into the meat of the show, let me remind you about this week’s FREE workshops:
That’s why we created The Financial Edge — education and knowledge that moves the needle.

Back to the Market: Mortgage Rates & Trends
Here are the top trending topics for today’s update, anchored by data from Bankrate.com.
Mortgage Rate Snapshot (Rewritten in My Voice)
As of Wednesday, January 28, 2026, the national average 30-year fixed mortgage rate sits at 6.17%, up a modest 3 basis points.
Refinance rates average 6.55%, up 5 basis points.
Translation?Another flat week, and flat weeks equal stability.
Since mortgage rates hit a 2025 low around 6.25% last October, they’ve moved sideways — not exploding, not collapsing.
That matters.
Why? Because markets transact in certainty, not chaos.
What’s Influencing Rates Right Now
Earlier this month, President Donald Trump announced that he directed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to purchase $200 billion in mortgage-backed securities.
That move briefly pushed mortgage rates down to 6.18%, the lowest since August 2022.
But here’s the insider reality:Markets react fast — and then normalize.
As excitement faded, rates drifted back toward 6.25%.
Fannie and Freddie back roughly two-thirds of U.S. mortgages. When they buy mortgage bonds, liquidity increases, which supports lending.
This system — not headlines — is why nearly two-thirds of Americans own homes.
Still, skepticism remains.
As Nicole Rueth of Movement Mortgage said:
“While the $200 billion buy helped narrow spreads and temporarily anchor rates, geopolitical pressure is now pulling them higher.”
In plain English:Rates are in a tight range, drifting slightly upward.
And now, all eyes are on the Federal Reserve, expected to keep rates unchanged — but markets will react to commentary.
The Insider Advantage: Shopping Rates
For the week of January 25th, top offers on Bankrate are 0.57% lower than the national average.
On a $340,000 loan, that’s $1,495 per year in savings.
That leads to a critical insider question:
When would NOW be a great time to consult your mortgage professional?
Answer: Before you need the loan.
Text LOAN to 561-861-2366.
Top offers currently show:
And tomorrow on the ATM – About The Money Edition, we’ll show you how some borrowers are getting rates in the 4s and investor loans in the 5s.
Preparing Early Is Insider Strategy
Whether you need a mortgage now or in the next year or two, it’s crucial to prepare early and get pre-qualified.
We also have inside information on:
More on that soon.
Big News: Mortgage Demand Drops
Let’s look at our first major article.
Rewritten Headline:
Mortgage demand cools as rates edge higher — insiders stay focused
Key Points (Reworded):
Now here’s why this matters.
Mortgage demand dropped 8.5% week-over-week, but refinance demand is still 156% higher than last year.
Why?Because last year, rates were nearly 80 basis points higher.
And as Joel Kan from the MBA noted:
“FHA refinance activity bucked the trend.”
Translation: Smart borrowers adapt.
This directly supports today’s theme — insiders don’t react emotionally to weekly rate changes. They position strategically.
Next Article: Buyers Backing Out
Homebuyers are backing out — and that’s good news for prepared buyers
Here’s what the data says:
That means leverage has shifted.
As Redfin’s Chen Zhao said:
“Homebuyers are more selective… sellers outnumber buyers by a record margin.”
Insider translation:Prepared buyers have options.
And when fear rises, opportunity expands.
Why This Is the Reason to Own Now
This environment rewards:
It punishes:
That’s how real estate really works.

Legal Insider Trading: Why Real Estate Is Predictable, Profitable, and Not a Gamble
Monday On A Mission
The Real Estate Show – Hosted by Eric Willner
OPENING – SETTING THE FRAME
“Welcome to The Real Estate Show,” hosted by me, Eric Willner, known as The Voice of Real Estate and founder of America’s longest running daily radio show about real estate.
If you’re new here, let me set the frame.This is not a hype show.This is not a get-rich-quick show.This is a thinking person’s show about money, real estate, and financial independence.
Today is the Monday On A Mission Edition of The Real Estate Show — the day we reset the mindset, set the direction for the week, and challenge you to think differently about money, debt, and opportunity.
And this week’s theme is bold, true, and maybe a little uncomfortable for some people:
“Insider Information You’re Allowed to Use: How Real Estate Really Works.”
DID YOU KNOW? – WAKE-UP CALL
Let me start with three Did You Know? questions — and I want you to really think about these, because they’re not just trivia… they’re wake-up calls.
Did you know that in real estate, knowing more about a neighborhood, a zoning change, a tax rule, or a financing incentive is not illegal — it’s expected?
Did you know that while Wall Street insider trading lands people in prison, real estate insiders are literally rewarded for knowing rents, seller motivation, depreciation rules, and local market trends?
Did you know that the biggest financial problem facing Americans today isn’t income — it’s debt, lack of strategy, and not knowing how money really works?
These questions aren’t just interesting — they’re invitations.They open the door to deeper conversations about debt management, financial planning, and how to break free from financial stress.
This is about setting yourself up for success, not by gambling — but by learning how the game is actually played.
REINTRO + AUTHORITY RESET
Now let me officially welcome you again.
Welcome to The Real Estate Show, hosted by me, Eric Willner, known as The Voice of Real Estate, founder of America’s longest running daily radio show about real estate, and creator of The Automatic Landlord System for owning cash-flowing real estate profitably and hassle-free.
It’s a virtual real estate seminar in every episode.
And since January 1st, we hit the RESTART button.
I shared the things I would do if I were starting — or starting over — in real estate investing.
Here are the first foundational steps we’ve covered:
And now we add the next critical layer:
WHY THIS MATTERS RIGHT NOW (Minute 7–10)
Today’s show is about why you must understand how real estate really works — not how it’s marketed, not how it’s sensationalized, but how it actually functions in the real world.
This week, we’ll talk about:
And understanding how this works is not optional if you want real financial success.
Before we go deeper, let me remind you of this week’s FREE workshops:
You should attend these because real estate requires skill, strategy, adaptability, and determination. It’s not passive. It’s powerful — when done correctly.
You’re either IN real estate because you own it…Or you’re ON real estate, paying rent directly — or indirectly — for someone else’s benefit.
Let me pause right here and say this clearly:
You can turn debt into wealth in real estate.You can change your financial picture.
Start by texting the word CREDIT to 561-861-2366.

(10-minute mark – full stop)
SECOND HALF – THE MEAT OF THE SHOW
Welcome back to The Real Estate Show.This is the Monday On A Mission Edition, and today’s theme is:
Insider Information You’re Allowed to Use: How Real Estate Really Works.
Let’s talk about why this matters — and how insiders think differently.
10 REASONS INSIDERS WIN
Here are 10 reasons you must understand how real estate really works:
This is legal insider information — available to anyone willing to learn.
THE 4 MAJOR ROADBLOCKS (Minute 15–18)
Let’s address the four biggest obstacles to financial independence — and how insider knowledge helps you overcome them.
Roadblock #1: Government & TaxesMost people fear taxes. Insiders plan around them. Real estate allows depreciation, deductions, and strategic planning that reduces taxable income legally.
Roadblock #2: Interest & Finance ChargesInterest destroys consumers — but builds wealth for owners. Insiders borrow long-term, fixed money and let tenants pay it back.
Roadblock #3: Uncontrolled Monthly BillsRent, utilities, debt payments — these crush cash flow. Real estate converts expenses into income streams.
Roadblock #4: Inflation — the Silent KillerInflation erodes savings. Real estate adjusts with it. Rents rise. Debt stays fixed. Equity grows.
Address these four — and you win.
Let me remind you again:
You can turn debt into wealth in real estate.Change your financial picture.
