Happy New Year!

I can’t remember a time when so many people were so excited to start a new year. However, in all the excitement to start 2021, don’t forget to set some goals and things to accomplish over the next twelve months. The year 2020 definitely caused each of us to rethink what is important in our lives and how we want to spend that time, but history shows that sometimes when things get back to “normal”, we quickly fall back into our past routines. What did we place more value on in 2020? Family time, family activities, home spaces, staying home, enjoying our back yards, and also the work that we get to do. Many people are changing career paths in 2021, and NAR reports a record-breaking number of people getting into real estate so that they can have flexible work hours and family time. Whatever it is that you want for 2021, take some time to plan it out and create action steps to make it happen. Happy New Year!
