Wisconsin Eviction Timeline & Landlord Posture
How Wisconsin courts handle non-payment evictions — material to DSCR loss-severity assumptions.
Wisconsin Statutes Chapter 704 allow a 5-day notice for non-payment. Small claims eviction hearings typically resolve within 14–21 days of filing.
Wisconsin Rate Adjustment vs National Baseline
Sub-jumbo loan sizes and rent-control preemption keep loss severity below national average.
Final pricing depends on FICO, LTV, DSCR, property type, and program. Baseline national DSCR refi rates start at 6.25% as of May 2026.
