But Not in Spain...

I've signed contracts in some strange places over the years, and it got me wondering if other real estate agents have odd-place-signing stories too.

Looking back, my list includes: 

Restaurants (of course) from Pizza Hut and Fuddruckers to Ruth's Chris Steak House.

Then the signing was at a bowling alley with the rumble of balls and clatter of pins as background music.

There have been contracts signed in a church and a synagogue, not during services or on the Sabbath.

We've signed at the gym. There was a front step signing and one in a parking lot among the cars and shoppers. Several contracts have been signed-in my car, too.

The most fun signing had to be on the wing of our airplane. My sellers were at their summer home in Atlantic City, NJ, and I had listed their unique contemporary home in Baltimore. I wasn't their first agent, so I was determined to get it to them right away when we got the contract. After calling and telling them to meet me at the Atlantic City airport, my husband and I flew down to the shore. I'd expected them to be excited and waiting out front for us. We walked into the airport office and found them just sitting there; they didn't think I would be there. After that, where else but the wing of our plane could we sign that contract?

 And here is one more Yee Haw a contract is negotiated!

 My favorite place to sign is still in cyberspace with all those exciting places. I can get them signed anywhere between my phone and computer capabilities and email.
