GALORE!

By
Real Estate Agent with Kristi Porter + Co.: KW Realty Partners Inc

Although I have been in the business for 7 years, this industry continues to amaze me. I think this is the only industry that uses the word "galore". I'm not sure why I find that word so amusing but I do. Where else do you hear, read, or use that word? I mean really. Plus. It's just a funny word to say. Then Old Navy had a commercial and they used the word "galore" in the song. Well. That shut me right up. Now I realize what trendsetters Realtors are with our fancy words like galore. Or perhaps the writer use to be a Realtor and wanted to implement the word because its burned in their brain from seeing it so often. Who knows. The only time I like to use the word is when I am saying: "what a GLORIOUS day". Not "the kitchen has cabinets galore". Guess I'm the odd duck in my industry. Plus I have a dry sense of humor. More cycnical I guess. Here's the Old Navy ad:

Kristi, you are the "hardest working" and "most appreciated" REALTOR(R) in the Midwest.  I know it must be true.... after all, we're the industry that calls small "cute" and a home that should be leveled "in need of TLC."

Nice blog!

We as a group have learned the art of descriptions for a home. You just picked one word.  Nice blog.
