Not sustainably.Agents spend too much energy trying to predict what’s coming next —rates, inventory, buyer sentiment, seasonal shifts.But here’s the truth:The only market you can win in is the one you’re standing in.What worked last year may not work today.What might work six months from now is guesswork at best.You can’t build a business on forecasts and “maybes.”Top agents succeed because they focus on the present:• the buyers who are active now• the sellers who need solutions now• the strategies that work right now• the opportunities in front of them todayReal estate is not about calling the future.It’s about taking action in the present.No need to try and time the market.Start learning how to work WITH it.
