So, what’s happening in the market and why did I choose real estate as a career?

First, what’s going on in the market? We are now fully underway in the spring market and we are seeing multiple offers and low inventory. Houses are selling as quickly as 24 to 48 hours from the time they hit the market. However, buyers shouldn’t be discouraged as rates are still low. However, interest rates will be increasing over the next 18 months, so buyers need to act fast. 

Second, why do I do what I do? I get asked this question a lot. Most people assume it’s because I want to make a ton of money. The truth is, anyone that knows me knows I drive a car that’s eight years old and live in a house I bought with my wife 15 years ago. I live a simple life.  

The reason I chose this profession is that it allows me to support the people in my life. It helps me take care of my family, my agents, and my community. Being able to support my community is very important to me, which is why I want to introduce you to the Saint Baldrick’s Foundation, an organization that is very near and dear to my heart.

The Saint Baldrick’s Foundation is dedicated to helping fight childhood cancer, and I’ve been a part of their big fundraising event for the past six years. This was the first year I wasn’t able to go, so a good friend of mine, Josh, took my place. You can learn all about Josh and his son’s journey in the video above as well as get a glimpse of the fantastic fundraiser. If you’d like to show your support for those affected by childhood cancer, feel free to reach out to me. Any amount would be a tremendous help. 

If you have any other questions about the market, or if you’re looking to buy or sell a home, please feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I’m always happy to help.
