HEY Mrs. Buyer - Why are you climbing on the seller's furniture?

People seem to forget that they are not in their own homes. Drives me nuts. Mrs. Buyer, this is not your home.

Scott -  That's quite a way to do an "inspection" on a property.

I'm sorry, but even though she had a reason, there is no excuse to put on chair on someone's couch and stand on it. Sometimes buyer's forget that this is someone else's home!

I would not have let her do that. How rude do some of these people have to be? I also would have asked if she had been raised in a barn. 

I watched Janice Dickinson on Celebrity Househunters and she flopped on the BEDS of the houses she was viewing - somebody ELSE's bed - YEOW!  I was surprised she was that rude

Too funny, Scott.  Buyers and sellers are always full of surprises.  I bet that was quite a surprise when you came up from the basement.  That's when you needed to have your camera out.  8-)

Scott, this is one to put in your memoirs. Good thing she didn't fall much less damage the sellers couch.

Scott,

It is amazing what some people will do when they think you are not watching.

Common sense is just not all that common anymore! You can't make this stuff up though.. it never ceases to amaze me!

It always amazes me that people get as "deal" when they purchase next to an airport, train, whatever and then complain when they hear the noise.

Too funny. I wonder if they wojld do the same in their own home or tolerate those who did...

This is terrible - she could have fallen and hurt herself which could have turned into a real nightmare.  She really needs to learn respect for other peoples property - you just don't climb on peoples furniture.

Hi Scott, this lady is a liability issue. But I do have to agree that living either in a flight path or by a busy street is a nightmare.

Hi Scott, I guess I'm lucky, in 20 years of selling Real Estate I have never had a buyer that did not respect the sellers property, except in REO's. I have never worked in a big city so maybe that's the reason.

Sounds like the type of client you have to keep your eye on.  Never know what they are going to be doing when you have your back turned.

I wonder if they would be happy to find out that someone did the same thing on their furniture.  I'd be willing to bet they would be a littled pissed.

I'mn sure that woman would have gone ballistic if a buyer would have done that to her house. That's a strange person

I can hear the mom in me coming out: "You two get down off the furniture this very instant." 

Sometimes we just have to be firm and remind buyers they can do those things after they buy the house. 

The liability factors to both the sellers furniture and the idiot buyers neck are pretty extreme in this situation.  Someone should suggest that she bring a sturdy stepladder to all future viewings.

Scott- ....and we wonder where the kids pick this up...
