New Housing Market

The days of fast money and anybody and their mama getting into the real estate business and hitting it big is over obi one kenobi...

And you know what I say?

Thank God!  The reason is we need a marketplace of professionals; leaders; trend setters; and customer service oriented champions who know what they are doing and can take their business to the next level.

Don't mean to be so harsh here (actually I do and I hope the wannabe's feelings are hurt) but this industry suffered greatly by people being able to get in so easily, and do to all the fast money, booming economic conditions, title companies, brokers, realtors, everybody was just jumping in for the quick buck, ran around and caused a muck.

See my post on building a brand or chasing a check because I dig into this by talking about what kind of value you bring to the marketplace and pose the question are you just in it for the money or are you in it to build a brand and a presence or chasing a check?

The new housing market; the new economy; the new way of doing things will be far different than what it was before. We'll be in a wet, sloshy, and muddy waters for some time to come. Call this cycle the "cleansing"...

Because while the wannabe's are going to be stuck in the mud, trying to figure out why the same things; the same talk; marketing schemes, advertising; and using old tricks that work in a booming economy where EVERYONE gets a piece... are not working anymore.

The Champions are flying above looking down for just a second then back up focused on achieving their next level.  See there are walkers and talkers ladies and gentlemen and their are people who talk a lot of "stuff" but are not getting the results.

What are you going to do in this new housing market?  Are you going be those stuck in the mud or are you going to build your brand and following, and create your own economy out of the ashes and prosper for the next year?

Ignore the governments numbers - people will always need housing.  Ignore the FED and the news talking about interest rates - interest rates can't and won't go anywhere for a while.  Stop focusing on where the market is everyday - unless you're a stock broker; investment adviser or something because that's just  a distraction...

What you need to do are these simple steps:

1. Have a clear vision
2. Decide on a strategy
3. Simplify and implement the strategy at the same time building value
4. Take MASSIVE freaking action.

Want to know the secret?....

That's it, there is no secret... YOU are the secret...

Clock's ticking....every second you let pass by with indecision is another second lost that you could be working on becoming the person you want to be. 

So in conclusion; we are in a new housing market, a new economy, but the best part is WE make our own economy.. so lets get to it.
