Is Television the queen of all real estate media?
It's interesting if you walk through any neighborhood at night and every home seems to have the TV on. Even if people aren't home, there'e the tv, left on for the dog or cat. Increasingly, people come in to my office to talk real estate and compare and contrast it with what they saw on tv. It's kind of a disturbing trend. After all, tv is not real life. People watch shows about flipping houses and use the show as kind of a how to guide even though that show has absolutly no resemblance to the market in Mid-Missouri. I'm sorry but re-habbing your home with Cherry flooring, an outdoor kitchen, granite everywhere and faux suede paint is not going to be a money maker. You should plan on staying in that house a long time. Even the flooring people at the local Home Depot are beginning to get concerned about their customers. I just started an educational show on cable access here in town and I'm going to have to do a show about not spending to much in order to make money on your re-hab. Is anyone else running into this?
