OK....this can be fun....

Post your finish to this line in the true Jeff Foxworthy tradition. This collection could become priceless. After 13 years in the reo niche... I have so many war stories and I know you do to...so...let's get started....

 

Sample....You Might Be an REO Agent If...your regular "signature scent" is deep woods off.

You might be a REO agent if all the photos on your iphone are of personal property left in abandon houses.

Ok...we're getting on a roll here:)

 

I've got a couple to add:

You might be an REO Agent if you take your date on an "occupancy check" in the middle of Bumfiddle Somewhere at dusk because you need back up and you need to see if he has the "right stuff" to make it in your world.

You might be an REO Agent if your elementary school children can spot the foreclosure and HUD homes on the street before you can find the numbers on the paperwork.

You might be an REO Agent if you've added the factor: 1 dumpster 2 dumpster 3 dumpster trashout to your investor evaluation property worksheet.

Keep them coming!

Janet, thanks for the laugh..yes, my 10 year old can always spot the "icky" REO before me.

You might be an REO agent if the family drive to get ice cream includes a quick occupancy check drive-by.

The kids are amazing! They tune in to so much stuff like little sponges.

 

How about:

You might be an REO Agent when the lines between "gained entry" and breaking and entering have started to blurr and befuddle in your mind.

You might me an REO Agent if you are used to Knocking on the Door,allowing it to swing open and pausing before entering, giving the roaches plenty of time to drop on the floor and scatter rather than immediately stepping into a cockroach shower.

May I play?

You may be an appraiser-turned-property preservation-chick if all your employees say, "I really don't think they're expecting that much attention to detail on a sales clean."

Yes Alison- it is amazing at the full spectrum range of what folks consider "sales clean". Kinda like some of the occupied houses we enter.

You might be an REO agent if you've purchased a "judge", completed your right-to-carry-and-conceal classes and obtained your permit.  GOD BLESS AMERICA!
