What are the challenges you face with this considering the current turbulent financial landscape? 

Economic and political uncertainty prevails, while the risk of asset bubbles and inflation is rising in different parts of the world. There is a lack of affordable housing throughout Chicago and its surrounding suburbs. Where working-class families are not able to find properties within their budgets based on their income.

Be alert of your financials. Try to cut your expenses, pay down your debts as much as possible. If you want to reach financial security, you need to take advantage of your greatest wealth-building tool: your income.

What goals are you working towards in the new year?

One of my goals this year is to really work on my marketing. God has blessed me with business that I have not fully mastered the marketing component of real estate. I can be a bit timid when it comes to social media but now more than ever, I understand the importance of just being out there!
