Goal setting series. Part 1 of 3. It’s January, time to set your goals for the year. First let’s look at why Don’t People set goals:

A) They don’t know the importance of goals. How can you hit a target that doesn’t exist? Goal setting is a vital key to your success.

B)They don’t know how. Most people have never been taught to set goals. The skill has never been passed down from family or mentors and is not taught in most schools.

C)Fear of rejection. Don’t let others rain on your parade. Keep your goals confidential. Only share with others who are committed to achieve their own goals and to help you to achieve yours.

D) Fear of failure. Success is about getting knocked down and getting back up EVERYTIME. Don’t play it safe. Push yourself beyond your comfort zone.

If you are serious about setting goals stay tuned for my next post and feel free to contact me directly if you want to dive deeper.

Finding a New Home when You're Busy, Busy, Busy!
Imagine you have a major project at work, you have to deal with home
schooling and you still need to deal with groceries, laundry and dinner. Whoa!
That's a busy life.
Can you still find and buy a new home with such a tight schedule? The good
news is, you can. In fact, there's plenty you can do to save time.
Consider these tips:
• Get specific about the home you want to buy. Think about property
type (for example, "two story, detached"), number of bedrooms and
bathrooms, special features, etc.
• Target areas you'd like to live in. That will avoid trips to see listings in
areas that aren't a good fit for you.
• Get the financing arranged. You'll be able to shop for a new home with
more confidence when you have a pre-arranged mortgage. It will also
make your offers stronger.
• Make seeing homes a priority by putting it on your schedule. Look at
pictures and watch virtual tours carefully to help narrow down the
number of homes you need to visit. Try to block time on the weekend,
and ideally one or two evenings a week, to view homes without other
distractions.
• Get all the information you need when viewing a property. Take notes.
Ask questions. Thoroughly explore the home, yard, and
neighbourhood. Get enough information to make a decision without
needing to see the home a second time.
While these time-saving tips can help, the best way to find a home on a busy
schedule is to work with a good real estate agent.

How to Get Front-of-the-Line Access to Desirable
Homes for Sale
As you've probably noticed, credit card companies regularly offer
bonuses to get you to apply for their cards. For example, one such card
company offers opportunities to buy tickets to concerts and other events
ahead of everyone else. It's their "front of the line" service.
When you’re searching for a new home, wouldn't it be great if you
could get to the front of the line on desirable properties – before other
buyers get the chance?
Well, in a way, you can.
The first thing you need to do is create a profile for the specific type of
home you're looking to buy. That profile will need to include the basics,
such as type of home (e.g. detached), size and rooms (e.g. 2000-2,500
sq. ft., 3 bedrooms, 2 baths), and your target neighbourhoods.
You'll also want to add any additional features you're looking for, such
as a finished basement or in-ground pool.
Next, you want to work with a real estate agent like me who understands
the local market and can arrange for you to receive immediate alerts for
newly listed homes that meet your criteria.
It's not uncommon for homes to become available for sale before the listing
information gets published on the MLS. In fact, in some circumstances, it
could take a couple of days before such listings become available online.
So, if you get an alert soon after a listing comes on the market, you get a
head-start on seeing that home and making an offer. And, you don't need
to apply for a special credit card to make that happen! Just give me a call.
I can help you find the right home for you.
