Do you procrastinate? It may not be because of the reason you think. I recently read this article, and it hits the nail on the head. The writer references one of my all-time favorite authors, Brené Brown. Her topics and writing style are spot on.

Could it be that you are a perfectionist and it is causing you to procrastinate? I can be guilty of this too. These steps are really helpful.

  1. Change your perspective

  2. Realize that you’re constantly improving

  3. Define “good enough”

  4. Remember: No one is perfect

  5. Be your own best friend

  6. What’s the worst thing that happens if they laugh at you?

  7. Not everyone will love you — and that’s okay

Whether you are a new agent or seasoned, we all face the same challenges. If we don’t get ahead of them, we will never get over them.

Many agents underestimate and overlook how important it is to stay in touch with contacts regularly. Follow-up with clients after the transaction is key. Only 25% of agents actually pursue their existing contacts and past clients for referrals.

Statistics by Brian & Buffini:

  • 25% of agents generate more than 50% of their annual business entirely through referrals

  • 88% of buyers claim they would use the same agent or refer them

  • The average agent earns 42% of their business through referrals

  • 82% of ALL real estate transactions are REFERRALS

Don’t wait. Top…

We just wanted to give a shout out to one of our local favorites - Delisheeyo! You’ve got to stop in and give them a try. Eating healthy has never been so easy and good. They offer a variety of food that is all fresh and often times grown in their garden. They have smoothies and a juice bar (even a Detox Smoothie if you need it after the holidays).

If you’re short on time, you can easily order online and pick it up or grab a fresh pressed juice from the Grab and Go counter. However, if you have the time…stay and enjoy the little cottage and all the friendly people. Make sure you save room for a tart frozen yogurt.

I can’t pass up a Moss Creek home for a Crush pick. I love Moss Creek! Inventory is low because most people don’t want to leave, and why would they? The amenities are amazing and you’re so close to on-island, Bluffton, Beaufort and Savannah.

Take a look at this fantastic Toppin Drive house. There is even an in-law suite for guests or for your kid that won’t leave!!

What else:

  • 18ft windows in the living area

  • gorgeous fireplace

  • exposed beams

  • 3 bedrooms

  • over 3,000 sq ft surrounded by majestic Oak trees

  • large lot on the golf course

  • amenities galore!

I know a thing or two about Moss Creek so I can show you around.

I recently read this statistic:

 

 

Around 41% of listed homes have a price reduction before they get an accepted offer. Help your sellers understand.

While it may not surprise you, it will certainly surprise your clients. Obviously our goal is to help our clients get to the right price at the time of listing, but sometimes that doesn’t happen. The perfect world would be that they follow your advice and market their home correctly! However, in the case that you need them to reduce their asking price, you really need to help them understand why and help them to keep their end goal in sight.

You’ve read the headlines: Build sweat equity. DIY special. Needs some TLC. These homes are far from turnkey, but they can offer good opportunities. With the right renovations, fixer-uppers can be a profitable investment.

But is this type of purchase right for you? To answer this question, consider three important factors.

Your plans. If you’re hoping to get a good deal on real estate and flip it for a profit or rent it out for extra money, this can be a good option. Another great option is buying a fixer-upper and doing the repairs yourself in order to transform the house into your dream home. On the other hand, if you have watched a lot of real estate shows and expect to spend a couple of weekends working on the home and then make big…

Shelter Cove Harbour and Marina is all aglow this holiday season. Instead of strolling the streets, you’ll stroll along the boardwalk and take in the light show of the boats. Enjoy dinner or drinks at any of the restaurants along the way. The light show runs through December and starts every night at dusk. Enjoy!
