Stability Across Wisconsin Communities

Local Insights

Wisconsin homeowners are closely watching ongoing discussions around property tax assessments and levy limits at the state and municipal levels. In counties such as Dane, Waukesha, and Milwaukee, assessment accuracy remains a key issue—especially for homeowners who have completed renovations or experienced market-driven value changes.

Ensuring your home’s assessed condition aligns with its current market value can help reduce the risk of overpaying on property taxes.

Home Updates

Wisconsin home values continued steady growth over the past year, particularly in Madison, Milwaukee, and surrounding suburban markets. While inventory remains limited, market forecasts point to moderate appreciation in 2026, supported by stable demand and lower-than-average housing supply.

For policyholders, this often means your home’s replacement cost has increased. If your dwelling coverage hasn’t been reviewed in the past 24 months, your coverage may no longer reflect today’s construction and material costs.

Vehicle Spotlight

Wisconsin winters bring extended exposure to snow, ice, and road salt, especially on major corridors like I-90, I-94, and I-43. A mid-season undercarriage wash helps reduce salt buildup, which is a leading cause of brake line, fuel line, and suspension corrosion.

Preventive maintenance during winter months can significantly extend vehicle life and reduce unexpected repair costs.
