Welcome to 2021! A new year with a plethora of opportunities waiting! Time to start fresh and leave the challenges of 2020 behind, right? Well, yes and no. As we welcome in the new year, it may be tempting to pretend like 2020 never happened. Unfortunately, just because it is a new year does not mean we can slip in our vigilance when it comes to our safety and the safety of others. Real estate is no different. We must continue to put safety as our top priority even when buying and selling houses.
