Real Estate Resolutions I Intend to Keep

It's resolution time! And while I remember saying sometime in college - during my smart alec days - that my resolution was not to make any, I'm breaking that rule right now to make some. So here are a few that are top on my list of real estate resolutions to keep in 2009:

1. I resolve not to constantly check comps to get an idea of the value of my house or my rental properties. I will use the Metrolist MLS for the purposes it was invented - as a way to search for listings for my clients.

2. I resolve to love my home - flaws and all - and not fall for any home I am showing my clients. Yes, even the million dollar ones.

3. I resolve not to drive my husband insane trying to get my house to look like either the ones on HGTV or the new homes.

4. I resolve not to watch so much HGTV.

5. ...or Property Ladder.

6. I resolve to write this blog at least every other day.

7. ...and write it for my readers, not the Chicken Littles.

Well, there they are. Pretty good handful there, huh? If buying a home is one of your resolutions this year, be sure to get in touch with me!
