Real Estate Addiction!

By

I'm writing this waiting for 8:30 because then "House Hunters International"  will be on.  And it's supposed to be new!  My husband is out of town so no hassle - lol-.  He sells farm equipment and has forced me to watch a few episodes of "tractor something" on RFD network in payback for making him watch "House Hunters"

He's asked why I'd want to do real estate all day and then watch a show about doing real estate when I get home? 

I don' t really know.  I do know that I have learned a lot from these shows.  (even as staged as they are)  

It is constantly amazing to me to see how important little things can be.  I need to always remember that.  A huge transaction can depend on a person's emotional reaction to a $200 paint job.

I guess too it is fun to watch a show about something I'm good at and enjoy.  I also like some fishing shows, I enjoy and am good at fishing.

But it does boil down to being addicted to the real estate business.

I must admit that I am with your husband.....the last thing I want to do at the end of the day is watch a show that has nothing to do with how the real estate day really works.

Hi Kathy,

I know what you mean.  I love to watch all the real estate shows on Better Homes and Gardens.  I get excited when I guess which house the buyers selected!  Of course, my husband & I always fight for the remote control!

Kathy...what a better way to wind down than to watch some thing you really enjoy!    I think a lot of us are "addicted"   I don't have cable but find myself on the computer reading posts here on Active Rain most evenings....I think I am addicted as well! LOL
