Wow. There really are no words to describe 2020, but there are lots of cheers and hopeful mindsets as 2021 is almost here. Our hearts are with every individual and family that has endured and withstood the indescribable challenges of living in a pandemic these last 9 months. Our most heartfelt gratitude also extends to those who have chosen to work with Homes of Silicon Valley and empower us to actualize your dreams. We have sincerely loved watching them come true.
As we always do, we have compiled our ‘Best of HOSV Blogs’ from the year below! These topics represent pivotal market trends, articles that received the most feedback and maybe a topic or two that was just plain fun.
Last but not least… be kind to yourself as we transition from one year to the next. New Year’s resolutions and goals are GREAT, but so is the continuation of whatever has gotten you through thus far. Sustaining new habits, maintaining your priorities and taking one day at a time is absolutely acceptable too.
