After a long couple of days of house searching, my clients felt that had found the perfect house, Location, awesome, condition great, price... right in the ball park. I unlocked the door and we walked in and she fell in love... Momma was HAPPY, so we all were happy!
BUT THEN -- the most god awful barking, baying, howling started up, and we walked to look in the back of the yard, and the neighbor that backs up to there fence had SIX... yes COUNT them SIX hunting dogs in a big kennel about 6 feet from the fence. The noise was unbelievable.
On to the NEXT house - which looked promising as well. Brand new construction, on market for 383 days, (first clue to me there was an issue). House was elegant, nicely done, soaring ceilings, landscaped well, staged.... and across the street were skateboard ramps, and two "tiered" trampolines, where the little darlings could jump from one level to the other, and you guessed it -- another dog kennel in the side yard... with three dogs that greeted us joyously.
Now, I love my dogs, I am on the Board of the Humane Society, I enjoy the heck out of animals, I enjoy kids, have three..., I feel very sorry for the owners of these properties... they have a tiger on their hands! I'm very happy they aren't my listings!
Happy ending, I think they found their home, though... and the old buyers are liars was once again proven to be true!
