Is Your Life Truly in Balance?

Today I wanted to speak with you about the importance, and the challenge, of balancing work with your personal life. No matter what stage of your career you may be in, real estate tends to be that type of profession that can really seep into all areas of your life. If you’re busy selling homes, your schedule is certainly busy and hectic. On the contrary, if you are not producing, the stress of inconsistent income and lack of results will seep out into your personal life.

To help keep the two facets of our lives separate, our entire team practices fundamental tools and strategies around time management and time blocking. Time blocking is probably the best thing you can do for yourself. For those growing their own business and don’t have the luxury of having a team prospect and setting appointments for them, this can be especially difficult. To handle this, we have tracking systems and other tools that allow our agents to organize their time and turn off their business when they leave the office so they can spend time with family and friends.

You should have a schedule that includes critical tasks you need to complete for the day like prospecting, lead follow-up, showing and listing appointments. The area you must consider is leverage in the form of technology, marketing, people and systems. The agents on our team are highly leveraged in these which helps their work-life balance so they can avoid handling small tasks at inconvenient times.

If you want to sit down with me to optimize your schedule so you can produce more, or if you’re looking for a different way to practice real estate, we are always look for top talent. Our buyers agents will close 40-45 sales per year on average and our listing agents will sell from 50-70 homes. I would love to help you and your business grow and our meeting would be confidential.

Thanks and have a great day!
