Why Adjusting Goals Matters
In real estate, the market is constantly changing. What may have seemed like a realistic goal at the beginning of the year might need to align with the current market dynamics. This is why it's crucial to be open to adjusting your goals as needed. Remember, the ultimate business success indicator is netting the most money from each closing, which requires a strategy adaptable to changing circumstances.
When to Consider Adjusting Your Goals

- Personal Circumstances: Life happens, and sometimes personal circumstances change. Whether it's a family matter, health issue, or any other unforeseen event, adjusting your goals to accommodate these changes is okay.
