    • Management

Many agents seem relieved that there hasn’t been a major shift in the market yet, but the truth is, we should be welcoming a down market. Why should we be embracing a potential downturn? What are the pitfalls of a hot market? Is there a way to maintain our results, regardless of the market we’re in? Matt Johnson and I discuss these questions and more on this episode of the show.  

In a down market, agents wake up fearful and hungrier for success. We have to bring that same energy to a hot market. -Greg Harrelson 
Takeaways + Tactics 

Don’t get too excited about hot markets. While they sound enticing, in reality, they tend to cause complacency among agents and ultimately, hinder our growth. 
Embrace the fear that comes with down markets. When we wake up everyday fearing that our livelihood is at stake, we’re more motivated to put in the necessary hard work.
Stay hungry, regardless of the market. Even if we’re currently in a hot market and performing relatively well, we need to remind ourselves what motivated us in the first place.
