We like Wisconsin. As rental property investors, we see good opportunities for buy and hold investors across several markets in Wisconsin. Wisconsin, with nearly 6 million residents, a stable population, and a strong economy, is often overlooked by real estate investors, especially institutional investors.

 

That's your opportunity and you can capitalize on it with DSCR loans for the purchase and refinance of 1 to 4 unit residential investment properties.

 

## Where to get DSCR Loans Wisconsin?

 

Whether you're working on rental number 1 or rental number 100, DSCR loans are the fastest growing, most competitive, and easiest rental property financing product. Unlike banks that require months of painful underwriting, DSCR loans can be funded in well under a month with significantly less documentation. DSCR loans are perfect for rental property investors who don't want to deal with income verification -- you will never be asked for your W-2 or your tax return. Self-employed rental investors love DSCR loans for this reason.

## What areas in Wisconsin do you serve?

 

We serve all parts of Wisconsin. Areas mentioned below seem have been producing a stand out rent growth in the area worth a deeper investigation. Some of the factor driving the rent growth are presented below.

 

Wisconsin saw modest population growth of around 3.6% between 2010-2020, with gains primarily concentrated in the Milwaukee, Madison, and Fox Valley metro areas. The state's economy remains driven by manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and agriculture/food production industries. Housing construction has generally kept pace with demand at the statewide level, though some tighter submarkets have emerged.

 

- 53132 - Part of Brookfield, an affluent Milwaukee suburb. High-income demographics but limited rental housing inventory presents potential opportunity.
- 53703 - Downtown Madison near the Wisconsin state capitol. Always a very tight rental market given demand from government and UW-Madison.
- 54914 - Part of the Appleton/Fox Valley metro which added thousands of manufacturing and healthcare jobs over the past decade.

 

Milwaukee Metro Area

 

While the City of Milwaukee's population was stagnant, surrounding suburbs expanded during the 2010s, with the metro area adding over 50,000 residents overall (3.2% growth). The economy is anchored by manufacturers like Harley-Davidson, Rockwell Automation, and large healthcare systems.

 

- 53223 - The northwest Milwaukee suburbs like Menomonee Falls saw strong housing demand from job growth but limited new rental supply.
- 53122 - Close to Milwaukee's Southridge area, this zip has emerged as an apartment development hotspot to meet pent-up demand.
- 53051 - Waukesha, as part of the Milwaukee metro, benefited from outward suburban expansion. Many renovated rental properties performing well.

 

Madison Metro Area

 

Madison saw over 9% population growth during the 2010s, well above state averages. It is an economic center for healthcare, technology, agriculture, and state government, with UW-Madison as a major anchor.

 

- 53719 - East side of Madison close to hospitals and the UW campus. Always extremely limited rental availability despite new construction.
- 53590 - Part of the Sun Prairie area experiencing rapid suburban expansion from Madison's growth but undersupplied on rental housing.
- 53718 - Downtown Madison near the capitol square. Very high-income area with minimal rental product to meet demand.

 

Green Bay/Fox Valley

 

The Green Bay metro area expanded over 4% in population during the 2010s, aided by growth in the broader Fox River Valley region to the south. Major employers include manufacturers and healthcare systems.

 

- 54304 - Part of Grand Chute, which has seen large corporate expansions but lagging multifamily construction.
- 54115 - The village of Hobart has emerged as a growth hotspot near Green Bay but has limited rental housing.
- 54935 - Downtown Appleton and areas near Lawrence University remained extremely tight rental markets.

 

Other Areas of Note

 

A few other Wisconsin markets that may warrant attention from rental housing investors:

 

- 54703 - Eau Claire and western Wisconsin saw steady population and economic growth from the Twin Cities expansion.
- 54601 - La Crosse added residents over the decade and experienced a healthy tourism/retirement home economy.
- 53081 - Kenosha grew as part of the Chicago metro area's outward expansion across the Wisconsin border.

 

While not exhibiting dramatic growth, certain areas of Wisconsin experienced enough economic and population expansion to create potential supply/demand imbalances in their rental housing markets for investors to monitor.

An instant quote will tell you if you qualify for the loan in under 1 minute of your time. It will also show you the a preliminary interest rate and loan amount. Once you select desired LTV (which can be changed later), your quote will be converted to a Loan File for processing purposes.

 

You will have to submit documents as part of your Loan File for underwriting. Documents we may ask for will include personal and property documents such as purchase contracts, current leases, borrowing entity documents, deeds, title work (we will engage a title company or an attorney on your behalf to draw up these documents), background and credit reports (that we will order), bank statements for liquidity verification as well as other documents that may be applicable to your specific deal.

Once all the loan documents are submitted, the Loan File goes through underwriting, at which point the underwriting committee may ask for additional documents depending on their discretion. Once the committee receives all the documents and approves the file, closing can be scheduled.

 

The closing, will be handled by the title company or at the office of closing attorney. Once closing is complete, funds will be wired. Post closing, the loan will be entered into servicing and you will receive information regarding setting up auto-pay or other options that may be available for your loan depending on the specific servicer's capabilities.

DSCR Loan Wisconsin

## OfferMarket launched today on Product Hunt, and we failed miserably.

 

We tried launching on Product Hunt today, if that's what you'll call it. We half-assed it. We put together our launch post and asked a few friends to upvote. 6 hours in and we have 3 referrals to our site from Product Hunt.

 

One person we asked for an upvote replied "I just like sold my soul to give you an upvote", here's what they were referring to in the sign up with Twitter authentication flow:

 

![twitter-authorize-an-application.jpg](https://cms.rentstack.co/uploads/twitter_authorize_an_application_b660bf2b3a.jpg)

 

Then we tried to have some people find us on Product Hunt, but they couldn't because their search doesn't work...

 

![producthunt-offermarket-search-no-results.png](https://cms.rentstack.co/uploads/producthunt_offermarket_search_no_results_bbcc62ab9f.png)

 

So that's when we realized we probably were not going to be raising much awareness on Product Hunt this time around. It also made it clear that Product Hunt either has some bugs or performance issues, or the only people whose product launches percolate to the top of the daily rankings do one or both of the following:

 

- know a lot of people already on Product Hunt and build a following on Product Hunt before launch
- coerce a lot of friends, family and others for upvotes

 

## Which doesn't lend much credibility to the platform as a utility for finding valuable tools.

 

Moving on then. We'll try again next time. We hope you enjoyed our post-mortem and how not to launch on Product Hunt.

- Opendoor
- Zillow Offers
- Offerpad

 

| Service | Type | Offer Competitiveness |
|:-------------:|:-----------:|:---------------------:|
| RedfinNow | iBuyer | Low |
| Opendoor | iBuyer | Low |
| Offerpad | iBuyer | Low |
| Zillow Offers | iBuyer | Low |
| OfferMarket | Marketplace | High |

 

## What is RedfinNow?

 
RedfinNow is an "[iBuyer](https://www.offermarket.us/real-estate-glossary/ibuying)" (short for "instant buyer") of single family homes. iBuying is a new home sales model where you receive a cash offer to sell your home fast. While there is an incredible convenience factor in play, the iBuying model comes with some drawbacks that we feel are important to know. If you're looking to sell your home fast and looking for RedfinNow competitors, this article aims to detail your options.

 
 

## ​Things to know about the iBuyer model

 

- Service is available in limited markets
- Not all houses receive an offer
- You will receive a lower offer than you would in a competitive sale
- You will pay service fees of 6% - 10% (not including repairs)
- Your offer will be contingent on an inspection and you will either need to pay for repairs or accept a revised, lower offer.

 

## How does RedfinNow work?

 

While RedfinNow is known for providing immediate all-cash offers to owners, it may take two or three visits to determine the final offer. The process to determine the final price RedfinNow is willing to pay for your property typically includes these steps:

 

1. Owners submit their property info on RedfinNow’s website and get an offer range.
2. RedfinNow makes a quick 30-min evaluation in the house and comes back with a preliminary offer. 
3. If owners agree with the proposal, RedfinNow will carry a deeper inspection to determine if the property needs any repairs.
4. Homeowners will receive the inspection report detailing the essential repairs the property needs and its cost, deducted from the final price.
5. RedfinNow gives owners the right to carry the repairs themselves or cancel the contract if they don’t agree with the inspection report. 
6. Offers can be 5-15% lower than what you would get on the open market. 

 

## Where is RedfinNow available?

 

RedfinNow markets:

- California
- Colorado
- Maryland
- Massachusetts
- Nevada
- Oregon
- Virginia
