Carla Black Once the house smelled and trashed so bad agents did not want to go inside a REO Broker open house.

I've neveer had anything too weird... although I've been in homes that smelled so bad I turned right around and left.

Wow... I would have grabbed my client and ran as well! I've shown some pretty grimey houses but none with curing rodent skins. Yikes!

How terrible, my parents used to feed an army of Squirrels in Waterbury CT and they were such smart little creatures... how could anyone be so mean and evil....BTW I have been to Austin  and it is such a great City... backwoods is the last thing I would think of....Endre

I sure wasn't expecting THAT. And I've had a bit of showing PTSD ever since. Thanks for the comment, Endre!!!

Hi Carla -- I have seen lots of things while showing property but I have not(yet) come across such a scene.  Thankfully.

Oh, that is horrific, Carla!  I cannot imagine seeing that, muchless having buyers in-tow!  And, I think dirty underwear left on the floor is the most disgusting thing I've seen!
