TRAMPLING THROUGH BANK OWNED PROPERTIES CAN CAUSE AN ALLERGIC REACTION

 

Showing nice luxury homes is such a pleasantry compared to our "war infested zone" bank repossed home which can be unsightly and may cause you to take a Dramamine or Diphenhydramine tablet. While showing a property the other day to a client, we encountered a home that needs more than just TLC...more like an extra strength dosing of TLC. The stench emanating from the interior orifice was more purgatory and much deserving of a 'Flip this House' episode. As Jack Nicholson stated, "You can't handle the truth!" Enough said if you have the mighty gumption to venture into this particular abode.

The interior walls were stained with a jaundiced discoloration reminiscent of an aftermath bout with motion sickness during the perfect storm. Let's just say the recessed lightings were cascading above the ceiling giving you the eerie feeling of calcified pendulums during a tour of a Halloween mansion. The carpets were stained with eclectic potpourri patterns you'd think it was one of the masterpieces from Picasso. The kitchen was in such shattered form that it made mash potatoe with gravy looked divine and pristine. The hardwood floor creeks more than the rusted hinges of a antique door.

Then it happened. The 'salud', 'gesundheit' suddenly hammered me without notice. It was like a train wrecked. hachoo...hachooo....hachooooo.....hachooooo.....hachoooooo!! geez whiz....hachoooooooo! It was non stopped. I didn't need to use the restroom but courteously excused myself and darted out of the room with such speed it may have even impressed the great sprinter Hussein Bolt. If I had gone just a little faster, I may have caught Michael J. Fox through the warp zone of Back to the Future.

You'd think Niagara Falls has torrential downpour you haven't seen anything yet. I was more of a Mega Niagara Falls or should we say Miagara Falls. My gesundheit was so robust it woke up and frightened some of the neighbors 4-footed friends. I wasn't kidding but I must have noticed the hair pointing northbound on the next door neighbor's 4-footed friend when I glanced over. My bout ended thereafter. Next time you show some of "these homes", take a Diphenhydramine beforehand or better yet bring a gas mask with ventilation. It'll save you the trip to travel to New York.

Hachoooooooo!! Excuse me. :)
