The next time you're tempted to say, "I've seen it all now," hold off.
Real estate can be a funny business at times. Many of you know that one of my niches that I have developed has been property management. Now, I have seen many things over the past seven years doing property management. Just when I thought I have seen it all then I experience another aha moment. I share stories with friends and family. However, they do not believe me when I tell them. I will need to write a book about my adventures.
Make it a great day today.
I can't remember how many times I've said, "I've seen it all now," in this business, but it's a lot. And, just when I think I've truly seen it all, something happens that makes me scratch my head and realize there is so much to see.
I've shown homes with people sleeping, someone in the shower, couples having sex, squatters, someone drying marijuana plants, and, and, and. This week I hit another first. I was showing a farmette, and while walking through the paddock to visit the stables, a horse walked up started eating my property printouts.
Yep, with one fell swoop, he reached out and grabbed the papers out of my hand and started chewing them up. My client, who is a horse owner, reached out and grabbed them and wrestled them out of the horse's mouth and she gave them back to me. They were slimy, chewed up versions of their former self, but it reminded me that everyday is new in this business.
So, the next time you're tempted to say, "I've seen it all now," hold off. The next showing might just bring about another first.
