Wordless Wednesday: For Sale By Owner-Too Truthful

By
Real Estate Agent with CATARRA CA BRE# 01871201

I got this picture from one of those emails that gets sent out to everyone and anyone in someone's email address book, that then gets sent out on yet another email blast.  I don't know how many people got it before it landed in my in-box.  

This seemed too funny not to share.  I am not sure it is for real but I would not be surprised if it was, FSBO's say some very interesting things.

Gee, I can't wait to move in....  I'll bet people are FLOCKING to see it!  Or maybe his neighbor was his agent?  That's another whole can of worms...

Not much more to say than that.  Although it might be hard to have someone want the "xxxhole" as their new neighbor.

Interesting marketing technique

Carla, I've heard about this sign before and its wording - has to be a joke but I'll bet it gets people to stop and take a look :) *at least at the outside.

Carla, that's pretty funny!  And it's a great example of why these guys need an agent!

Carla, I LOVE it, too funny and I think most have been driven to this point by a neighbor before (I know I have)!

@Mike and Cindy, LOL you are right

@Jennifer, it is the way to attract a buyer:-)

@Pat, Frank and Sharon,  if it is true it is funny and it is funny if it is not true

@Patricia, that's the truth!

@Christina, lucky me I have that neighbor next door now:-)

@Sherilyn-He is at least lacking in good judgement if not an A$$hole

A good attention getting sign.

But if the sign is true who would want that guy as your new next door neighbor!

I actually think the sign photo is the work of Photoshop. That same picture is on our office post board. Note the lack of any phone number.
