BROKERAGE FACEBOOK GROUPS

I have found that the best way to communicate with my Realtors is through a Secret Facebook Group. You can make a Facebook Group easily by clicking on the down arrow button to the far right of the top Facebook Task Bar. Go down to Create Group and click on that. Choose which label best describes your group – in this case, it would probably be “Connect and Share”. In the next screen, name your group and choose the privacy settings.  This picture describes your choices.




I prefer my brokerage Facebook Group to be secret because I don’t want any one to be able to find it in a search. The last thing you do is click Create. Now you can use this to communicate with your Realtors. You can post local real estate statistics, articles, links to podcasts, information such as reminders for office meetings, new listings or listings coming on soon, accolades for your Realtors, etc.


I feel like this is hands down the best, quickest and easiest way to communicate. It creates a positive team culture. Anyone in the group can post things, and oftentimes they will post a challenge they are having, and the other Realtors will give them advice.  I also use this with a mastermind group that I created so that we can write our goals and other things and receive support and have a stronger sense of accountability. I have even created one for my family this year. We don’t all live near each other, so this is a great way to communicate and share pictures and other fun things.

  What Happens to Housing when There’s a Recession? Since the 2008 housing bubble burst, the word recession strikes a stronger emotional chord than it ever did before. And while there’s some debate around whether we’re officially in a recession right now, the good news is experts say a recession today would likely be mild and the economy would rebound quickly. As the 2022 CEO Outlook from KPMG  says : “Global CEOs see a ‘mild and short’ recession, yet optimistic about global economy over 3-year horizon . . .   More than 8 out of 10 anticipate a recession over the next 12 months, with  more than half expecting it to be mild and short .” To add to that sentiment, housing is typically one of the first sectors to rebound during a slowdown. As Ali Wolf, Chief Economist at  Zonda ,  explains : “Housing is traditionally one of the first sectors to slow as the economy shifts but is also  one of the first to rebound .” Part of that rebound is tied to what has h...

  Planning to Retire? It Could Be Time To Make a Move. If you’re thinking about retirement or have already retired this year, you may be planning your next steps. One of your goals could be  selling your house  and finding a home that more closely  fits your needs . Fortunately, you may be in a better position to make a move than you realize. Here are a few things to think about when making that decision. Consider How Long You’ve Been in Your Home From 1985 to 2008, the average length of time homeowners typically stayed in their homes was only six years. But according to the  National Association of Realtors  (NAR), that number is  rising today , meaning many homeowners are living in their houses even longer  (see graph below) : When you live in a home for a significant period of time, it’s natural for you to experience a number of changes in your life while you’re in that house. As those life changes and milestones happen, your needs may change. ...

I am happy to announce that after 13 years I have decided to close my brokerage and move my real estate license to Summit Sotheby's International Realty.

While it was a difficult decision to close my brokerage, I am very happy with what the future will bring and the benefits it will have for all my clients that I adore.
