It’s that time of year again! Let’s take a seat, pull out our notebook, and make some new year’s resolutions. Although these resolutions can be started at any time of year, we wanted to give you some inspiration to start 2022 off on the right foot. Whether you’re notorious for keeping them (or not), we wanted to share our list and perhaps inspire yours.
Stay Organized & Plan Ahead. Say goodbye to procrastination in 2022! Start the year off strong by planning ahead in both your personal and professional life. Planning out your listings’ marketing in advance gets it to market the quickest for exposure to buyers. As well as scheduling your photography appointment, when working with VHT Studios, we encourage prepping the home ahead of time. The more prepared you are, the better! More home prep tips here. Plan time to consult with your home owner on decluttering and prepping the home so the shoots are most productive.
Clean & Healthy Living. A focus on health, dieting, or fitness is generally at the top of people’s New Year’s resolutions. This year, we wanted to take “clean living” in a different direction. Ever heard the saying “A clean home is a happy home”? When it comes to selling listings, portraying your property in a clean and organized manner is best!
Prioritize Time for Yourself. Although the world has started to open back up, it’s important to take time for yourself and envision your goals for 2022. Find a space in your home that allows you to do so, such as a private office, library, breakfast nook, etc.
Work smarter… & harder! Speaking of goals, are there specifics you set in 2021 that have yet to be checked off? When setting hopeful achievements for the new year, think of an improved way to shift your efforts in order to end the year with your goals reached. When you work smarter, you consequently work harder!
Make a conscious effort to stay “in the know.” The world of real estate is ever changing, and so are the trends and market within it. There are many ways to stay educated on industry news such as listening to podcasts, attending webinars, following topical accounts on social media, following news/industry publications, and more. You could also attend one of our bi-monthly “Lunch with Lucy” webinars to learn from the experts. Register for our next webinar at VHT.com/learn.
We’ve shared the New Year’s resolutions on our list this year… Now it’s your turn. What are some of the resolutions you’re pursuing in 2022?
