2024 is starting to feel like the beginning of my career nearly 30 years ago.

We are even starting to see people ask about “assumable mortgages”. Something we as a community haven’t even talked about in a number of years.

If you are curious how they work – this families story is a great way to see them in motion. This is an uplifting story that will make your day and give you hope – especially if you are frustrated with the current market of high interest rates and low inventory.

If you are a buyer – you are probably frustrated with the lack of inventory. There are sometimes ZERO homes for sale in a neighborhood.

If you are a seller – you are probably frustrated with the high interest rates you would have to pay if you moved to a new home today.

It’s created a bit of a stalemate in the real estate market.

The story above should give you hope that with just a bit of creativity – we can get things moving again.

Whether you are a buyer or a seller, let me encourage you to keep going.

Now is a great time to grow your business. In just a few weeks summer will be coming to an end.

You can spend the next few weeks on the beach, at the pool or with some family or friends simply relaxing.

Or….. You can devote some of the next few weeks to learning and growing.

I suggest there is time for both. You can take a few days and have some fun.

But you could also devote some time to learning something new this summer.

If you haven’t heard – we have started our “Summer Sprint” at my office.

I challenged the people I work with, and even a few friends to get better over the next 90 days.

The Summer Sprint is really just a time where we all want to grow in some way, just a little bit, every day.

Join me and the rest of our WREIA crowd Monday night where I want to share a few of the areas we are planning to put our energy.

With just a little time, effort and focus – let’s “Build a Better Business” this summer.

Grab a virtual seat for Monday while you still can. (Yes, they are still free. Thanks Covid for showing some of us we can still be productive from home.)

Have a great weekend!
