Should You Buy Past Real Estate Clients a Holiday Gift?

This has been a whirlwind of a year and if you were fortunate like many of our agents- you have been busy in this essential business, helping new homeowners take advantage of all-time-low interest rates.

Giving past clients a holiday gift will let them know you care and keep you top-of-mind when their friends or family members need your services in the new year. Not only will it encourage more business in 2021, but it will also make you feel good too!
