September Update: Michigan Real Estate Market Remains Steady & What I've Been Up To

A photo from my talk with Level Detroit this month.

Hey there friends, colleagues, and readers of this blog! Thanks for joining me here.

My schedule has been go-go-go this month and I think it’s time I start planning a vacation…I’d love it if you guys could share your favorite local or US vacation spots with me! DM me on IG to share your fave spots where I can RELAX & I will add them to the blog next month. I’m not complaining one bit, but man this month was a LONG one.

Michigan’s real estate market is steady and pricing remains steep, only instead of seeing 20 offers on a listing, we are seeing more like 2-6 offers. Also, there’s definitely some deals to be had in the Detroit condo world…so if you’re looking for a condo, I just might have a really good deal for you. Here’s a rundown on how my business is looking:

• 1.5M Closed September

• 7.1M for Q3

• 18.1M YTD

• 1.75M Pending

• 1.4M Active

This month, I had the honor of speaking at a Level Detroit Morning MindFUEL event alongside Angela Wisniewski of Coup D’ètat Boutique and Heidi Denha of Heidi D Cosmetics. Check out my monthly obsession blog post to learn how you can join the next Level Detroit event with our network of female entrepreneurs!

In addition to that talk, it was my husband Kyle Swink’s birthday - and we celebrated with tacos and cocktails on our patio…get my hostess tips here! 🌮🍹The weather is PERFECT for a nighttime fire, s’mores, and sweaters… I just love fall in Detroit.

I want to give a big shoutout to my friend, colleague and teammate Amanda Cousino — who works 2 jobs and KILLING it!! She just wrapped her first year as a realtor (while also working at an ad agency) and I’m proud to see how much success she’s had lately…get all her tips for new realtors (or really any new entrepreneur could find them helpful) here. And follow her on IG!!

I hope you guys have a wonderful start to October — are you dressing up for Halloween this year? Are there any fun parties going on? I’d love to hear what you’re costume is going to be or what you think mine should be…so stay in touch, you know where to find me!

XOXO - Erica
