"You will like a log" - MLS Gaffes and Laughs - 02/24/12 08:25 AM
The world of real estate has gone mad. The MLS had so many bloopers this past week that I’m convinced the winter slump has set in and brains are hibernating. Thanks to Jane Peters of Los Angeles and Fred Glick of Philadelphia for their great finds. Enjoy the fun, my friends: You Snooze, You Lose “Very delirious home” (…And it seems you've been drinking the Cool-Aid.) “Trembled marble” (You’d tremble, too, if you were laid out on a slab.) “Submerge docs with FICOs” (Newsflash: Most FICO’s already went down the crapper.) “Features tennis pools” (How desirable can wet balls really be?) “Your

"Asphalt roll" - Are You Steam-Rolling Your Own MLS Listings? - 02/17/12 10:39 AM
Is it any wonder I drink, folks? From beef to bull, this week’s MLS bloopers left me in tears. Thanks to Ben Goheen, Patty DaSilva and Jane Peters for their hysterical contributions. It’s nice to know that not all the crazies live in L.A. Check these out: Out and About “Sellers mooed out” (They probably had a beef about something…) “Preview only for out agents” (Offered by Barney Frank Realty.) “Bank REO – sumbit with buyers’ credenza” (I would if I knew how to squeeze a credenza into a fax machine.) “Pans for bedroom” (Welcome to Sunset Acres Nursing Home.) “Asphalt roll

"On steep hell" - MLS Bloopers - An Assessment of Your Career? - 02/10/12 01:48 PM
I am all for having a martini or two, folks. Maybe even three if it’s at least 10:00 AM. (I have my standards, you know.) However, I do draw the line at drinking and typing. It seems the MLS is going to hell in a hand basket. Read these real estate bloopers and tell me if you agree that there should be a breathalyzer test for fingers: Corn Squeezins = Loss of Reason “Pone found at open house” (Proudly ofered by Alabama Al and his Cornbread Combo.) “Seller says he’s don” (That explains the horse’s head in your bed.) “New studdo in back” (New bottle

"Foe painting" - This Week's Colorful MLS Bloopers - 02/03/12 12:49 PM
As an experienced agent, I sometimes think I’ve seen everything, but when I read the remarks below, I realized I have so much to learn. For instance, how does one get enough pate for a road? Or enough figs to make drapes? And why would one shag on a roof? Read these bloopers, and then maybe you can explain it all to me: A Leg Up On Things “Leg in for details” (Oh yay – we’re doing the Hokey-Pokey!) “Custom figged drapes” (How do you get the little fig seeds into the fabric?) “Road just pated” (Hence the expression, “What am I
