Everyone loves a good real estate meme - and there are hundreds of them floating around the internet. Today, I'm going to share a few favorites that all agents can relate to - but first, I'm going to teach you something...
Where did the word meme come from?
According to an excerpt from todayifoundout.com:
“Meme” was coined by the often controversial evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in his 1976 book, The Selfish Gene. In it, he states the following:
We need a name for the new replicator, a noun that conveys the idea of a unit of cultural transmission, or a unit of imitation. ‘Mimeme’ comes from a suitable Greek root, but I want a monosyllable that sounds a bit like ‘gene’. I hope my classicist friends will forgive me if I abbreviate mimeme to meme.
Today's definition: meme -- mēm/noun
a humorous image, video, piece of text, etc. that is copied (often with slight variations) and spread rapidly by Internet users.
Now, on to the real estate memes (all found here):
-
When new buyers are in a rush to start touring houses...
-
When you ask for the same paperwork a dozen times...
-
When your broker notices something is missing...
-
When you imagine how someone decides to sell their own home...
-
When you get a little creative with your listing description...
-
When your buyers don't understand how to manage finances during escrow...
-
When you're working with overly-optimistic sellers...
Time to get back to work!
