The 50-Year Mortgage: Game-Changer or Financial Trap? | Renee Lossia Acho With KW Domain on Michigan’s Housing Reality

Live from the Clear2 Mortgage Sprinter Van, this week on Road 2 Close, host Paul Apostolakis sits down with Renee Lossia Acho, one of Michigan’s most accomplished real estate agents and a top producer at KW Domain, to talk about what everyone’s arguing about right now — the 50-year mortgage.

When President Trump said it could “solve housing affordability,” the media went crazy. But is it really the answer, or just another sound bite?
Paul and Renee break it all down — the truth about how longer amortizations actually affect affordability, equity, and long-term wealth building — and why most experts are calling it a Band-Aid on a broken system.

They go deep on:

• Why 6.5 % mortgage rates aren’t the problem — and why they might actually be healthy.

• The real issue behind affordability: America’s housing shortage and lack of inventory.

• How Gen Z’s stalled job market is creating ripple effects all the way up to Michigan’s luxury homes.

• Why investors should be watching the rental market boom instead of waiting for a crash.

• How luxury new-construction prices in Metro Detroit reached $600 to $1,000 per square foot — and are still selling.

• Why Zillow headlines are like WebMD for real estate — and what data professionals should actually trust.

Renee calls it like she sees it — unfiltered, funny, and loaded with insider perspective from one of the most experienced agents in the Midwest. Expect real talk, no fluff, and practical insight you can actually use to navigate today’s housing market.

Whether you’re a loan officer, agent, investor, or homeowner, this episode will leave you thinking differently about the road ahead — and why Michigan real estate is far more resilient than the national headlines suggest.
