It's hard to believe, but 2014 is almost over. With the new year just around the corner, we thought we would quickly recap what we saw in Orlando real estate over the last year.

It was another fantastic year for real estate here in Orlando. Premium Properties opened another location in Merritt Island, which we were very excited about. Additionally, we joined the Brevard MLS, so we can now sell homes on the beach!

This year was a big year for our team internally, as well. We changed our lead management system to BoomTown, which we're very happy about, as each agent on our team now has their own personal website.

We at Premium Properties have made a new commitment to our commercial department over the last year. We had a sale this year that was over $5.5 million, which was incredibly exciting. We hope to continue the growth of our commercial department in the upcoming year. If you have any expertise in that area, we would love to chat with you!

Over the past year, we have enlarged our property management department. We have over 700 rental properties under management right now and we're looking to continue growing in this respect. We expect 2015 to be a huge year in this department as well.

Looking forward to 2015, we are hoping to have a new office opened in the Cocoa Beach Area sometime at the beginning of the year, so keep an eye out for that!

Thanks for joining us today! We would love to talk to you about all the wonderful things that are happening here at Premium Properties and how we can help you take your business to the next level! 

Give us a call or shoot us an email if you're interested in learning more about us. We would love to take you to lunch and tell you a little more about the company!

Are You Throwing Away a BIG Opportunity by Taking the Holidays Off?

Looking to improve your real estate career? I'm here to help you make a smart decision when it comes to growing your business, improving your bottom line, and choosing a place to work in real estate sales.

Welcome back everyone! Today, I want to discuss the topic of working through the holidays. 

We often hear agents from other companies complaining about how slow the real estate market is this time of year. Many agents decide to simply take this time off and start up again after the new year.  

I am of the opinion that it's not a slow time of year at all! It's only slow if you convince yourself that it is. It's important to keep a positive mental outlook throughout the holiday season if you want to go into 2015 with some momentum.

Taking time off now will affect your whole next year - your January and February will be weaker if you decide to take time off now. Reasons to continue working through the holidays are many, but here are just a few:

• It's a great time for sellers. There is less inventory for homeowners to compete with, making the holidays a solid time to get more money in less time.
• Home buyers are more motivated. People who are looking for homes around the holidays have a reason to be. 
• There are thousands of potential buyers. There are many people from out of town visiting our area right now. A lot of times these people are buying homes, which is potential business for you.
• Other Realtors are taking time off. With fewer Realtors to compete with, you have a better chance of getting business during this time.

If you have any questions about the many reasons why you should stay hard at work this holiday season, or if you would like some tips on how to get your business ready for the upcoming year, don't hesitate to give me a call or shoot me an email. I would love give you a hand!
