FROM THE CEO’S DESK
Set Yourself Up for Success this Summer The spring selling season has officially ended and while the temperatures in the Garden State are on the rise, the market is slowly cooling off. School is out of session, the State Legislature is on break, and beaches are seeing the influx of tourists they waited for all winter. I know the thought of attending school in the summer might sound like punishment, but, sometimes summer is the perfect opportunity to spend a little extra time learning. New Jersey Realtors® Academy of Continuing Education has an abundance of free and low-cost continuing education classes for members. They cover topics such as the commercial real estate transaction flow, social media ethics, and more. The next CE term deadline is already less than a year away on June 20, 2023. You can fit all your CE requirements in before the fall.
software, discover all available tools through NJ Realtors® Forms Library through zipForm, edit your realtor.com® profile, set up calendar reminders for reoccurring tasks, or browse our Member Perks for company discounts on services you need. And, maybe above all else, I encourage you all to take time to do things you enjoy. One of the many pros of being a real estate professional is being in control of your schedule and working hours. Squeeze in spending time with friends, family, or colleagues, or take a trip to one of New Jersey’s State Parks (admission is free this summer!) I hope you all have a wonderful, productive summer like we’re aiming to have here in Trenton, and I’ll see you at Realtor®-palooza on October 7.
Summer also tends to be a good time to take a step back and evaluate how the back end of your business is working. Use this time to organize your customer relationship management
