The holidays are a time of reflection, gratitude, and hope. As we look back on the past year and look forward to the future, we here at WinningAgent are profoundly grateful to all of you and excited for the year ahead.

It’s been a hectic two years in the real estate world. With 2022 coming to a close, there is a sense of uncertainty and a shifting market. How can real estate professionals embrace this changing landscape to strengthen their businesses?

A Look Back on 2022

What a difference a year makes! Last year, real estate professionals were limping to the year’s end, exhausted by a frenzied housing market. Houses sold just as fast as they hit the MLS. Buyers struggled to get an offer accepted. And the prices – and commissions – were sky-high.

Most markets have seen slight slowdowns, but prices remain steady, with most areas continuing to experience price increases year over year. While we’re not seeing as many buyers competing for existing properties thanks to higher interest rates and increased inventory, homes are still selling, and people and still buying.

This slower pace isn’t all bad. We’ve heard many agents say that the 2021 pace simply wasn’t sustainable. Agents and lenders were on the verge of burnout. This year felt less hectic. And after we catch our collective breath, it’s time to look forward to next year.

Moving Forward to 2023

It’s been a bit of a whirlwind over the past year. Inflation and rising interest rates have made homeownership all but impossible for many. And that cool off has meant a slowdown for real estate agents, mortgage brokers, and other real estate professionals. That slowdown does represent some lost income, but it also frees up your valuable free time: time for family, friends, and yes, more time to invest back into your marketing, website, and business. 

We don’t know for sure what the future holds for the housing market, but most experts agree that 2023 will see more of the same: slowing sales, but steady home prices. Some parts of the country may see price decreases, but others will see steady or increasing home values. 

Consider 2023 as a year of investing in yourself and your business. At WinningAgent, we provide the tools you need to create a stellar website that reflects your professionalism and passion. A great real estate website can help you reach new clients, engage existing and past clients, and grow your business.

Merry Christmas from WinningAgent

A year of change is behind us. And an unknown year is ahead. But today, we stop and focus on this moment. The holidays provide us an opportunity to press pause on our work and embrace everything we hold most dear.

Presents under Christmas treeThis holiday season, we want to thank you for your support. We are reminded that this business isn’t about data or profit; it’s about people. It’s about you, our customers, readers, and supporters. It’s about the people on the WinningAgent team who constantly raise the bar on what it means to be professional, dedicated, and team players. And it’s about our families and friends, who make our lives brighter with their love.

As we pause this week to celebrate Christmas, we are grateful for everything the holiday represents: faith, family, friends, togetherness, love, and gratitude. 

May this Christmas bring joy, laughter, and peace to you and yours. And may you experience health, happiness, and success in the year ahead.

Sincerely,

Your friends at WinningAgent
