The Lighter Side of Real Estate

Reminds me of a story.....was trying to show a home.  They had a huge saint bernard dog that was laying across the front porch right in front of the keybox.  I got out of the car, walked up the porch, stepped over the dog and unlocked the home.  The buyers would not get out of the car.  We still laugh about it when we see each other.

Judith,

Not sure what to think of tonite, my brain is too burned to think.

Well, my funny story doesn't involve a cow, but my clients and I got a really good laugh none the less.  We went to look at a foreclosed home.  As we pulled up there was a huge junk pile in the back yard and lots of tall grass in the front yard.  It was summer so I was wearing open toed shoes and capri pants so had to walk very carefully through the knee high grass in the yard to get to the porch, praying that I wouldn't come across any snakes or critters.  When we finally got up to the porch, the lock box was covered in a spiderweb so I used my shoe to clear it away.  I opened the box and went inside announcing my presence.  We walked through the living room and into the kitchen and discovered that the back door was missing.  I felt so silly that we could have gone through the absent back door where there was no grass instead of fighting to the front door.  I learned that it isn't always best to choose the path less traveled.  :)
