Why Does Your Year Actually Start in October?



Thinking about a career in San Diego real estate sales? If you're a current sales professional looking to control your own income and success in a new industry, or you're an existing real estate agent who needs more help to reach your goals, email me today for a private San Diego real estate career consultation. I'll share with you what a sales career at Keller Williams looks like, as well as the great income you will earn helping San Diego homeowners sell and buy homes in our greater San Diego County area.

Hey everyone, this is Jeremiah Taylor from Keller Williams Del Mar and we want to welcome you to 2015. What you may not realize as an agent is that the January 1st in your business's calendar is actually October 1. Let me tell you why.

The reason that the year starts on October 1st instead of January 1st for agents is due to the amount of time it takes to navigate a transaction. What happens if we hold an open house on October 1st, talk to a potential buyer about buying a home, set up a buyer consultation with them, get them pre-approved, go out looking for homes, find the perfect home, make an offer, get it accepted, open escrow, and have a 45 day closing? Well, by now we are at, you guessed it, January 1st.

What most agents don't realize is that October is the perfect month to plan your business for the rest of the year. Now that it is November, it's time to get to work on that business plan.
