Grow your business through social media

If you're an agent wanting to grow your business through social media here are the 3 things I personally focus on 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼


1.Posting videos more then photos- this allows the chance for new people to find your page and more eyes on your content


2.Engaging - engaging with people who follow you and also post content that other people are going to want to engage with! The engagement is NOT one sided.


3.Authenticity - if you've been following me for a while you know I let people in with a lot of my life, personal and professional. This allows people to fee connected to each other and build relationships with others easier and more natural.


It doesn't matter if you're posting consistently or engaging with your audience, you need to show up on video and stories so people see YOU & be authentic so people get to know who you are 💫

Is it a good time to buy???

The question isn't about "is it a good time to buy?" The question you should be asking yourself are these 2 things👇🏻


1.Can I afford to buy right now?

2.What's my plan with this property?


If you're in a position where you want to buy, you can afford to buy and your plan is to be in the property for a minimum of 3 years then you have your answer. The question isn't about timing the market it's figuring out when the right time for YOU is 🏡

Personal Growth Journey

Last year was an incredibly transformative year for me. If you've been following me on social for a while you've been following along my own personal growth journey. From the @5am_wakeupcall to changing brokerages, to starting my journey with practicing gratitude & everything in between 💫


All the work I was doing on myself personally translated into the energy I was putting out into my work which opened up different opportunities, relationships, friendships etc to have one of my personally best years so far & the exciting part is I feel like I'm just getting started ♥️🙌🏻

Tip for buyers & especially first time home buyers 👇🏻

There's always that parent who comes to one showing saying that they bought their first home for $125K and that this $625K townhouse isn't worth it😅


Bringing everyone along the process the entire time is super important for everyone to be on the same page to understand what's available in CURRENT market🏡

Tip for buyers & especially first time home buyers 👇🏻

⚡️Make sure all decision makers such as parents are involved in the whole process from the start ⚡️


I've worked with many buyers who have parents come and go throughout the process, come to some showings then aren't there for others and I've found that it becomes extremely difficult for buyers to make a decision on which property to offer on.


The best thing to do is to have all decision makers involved in the process from start to finish to make the home buying process as seamless as possible! 🏡

When projects start off small & end up in a full home gut😅



It's easy to get caught up on the headlines in the media & not do anything at all 🤔


If you're worried about purchasing right now because of all these unknowns in the market - it's important to keep in mind what vour personal goals are with home ownership 🏡


If you're looking to buy with the intention of living there for at least a few years - it doesn't matter if the prices potentially drop more because in the grand scheme in 3-5 years you're still ahead anyway with all the equity and appreciation gained


Always remember, you don't know when the bottom is still we're on the other side of it. Prices have dropped anvwhere from 30-40% so its safe to say we're pretty much at the bottom if not very close to it

Home Buyer Mistakes!

There’s a lot that goes into buying a home so let’s break down some major things to avoid👇🏼


1. Before you start looking at homes, get clear about exactly what you’re looking for! Of course we’re humans and sometimes our minds change throughout the process of home searching.  Our criteria may change but it’s important to get clear about certain non negotiable things that you must have and what’s important to you so you and your Realtor can look at homes that are the most relevant to what you’re looking for. 


2. Please remember you chose your Realtor for a REASON. Sure anyone can look online at listings & get a sense of general prices in an area but your agent is the professional who STUDIES the markets; this is not something we occasionally look at online for fun (although maybe sometimes🙊) we study the local numbers & trends, have negotiation tactics etc. Trust them. 


3. Stretching yourself too thin is this market has become very common since home buyers now have to basically bid for a home. Keep in mind that there is still LIFE after this purchase. You don’t want to stretch yourself too thin and be house poor & not be able to still enjoy your life. There is way more then just the monthly mortgage to take into consideration, utility cost, insurance, groceries, furnishing the home etc all go into the bucket of owning a home.

Buyers vs. Expectations

Buyers! One of the most important things we as realtors have to do with buyers is make sure budget & expectations line up. Now more than ever before this has been extremely challenging with how quickly the market has shifted & getting buyers to line their expectations up with the market. If you had hoped for a detached, 3 bathrooms, big back yard, finished basement, ETC, maybe your budget allowed for that last year but unfortunately with the way the market is now it’s super important to have realistic expectations with yourselves and your realtor. Maybe something on your list needs to compromise and that’s okay!! 🙏🏼 the most important thing is to just get in and buy & the best time to buy is now🏡
