Being a Real Estate Agent is Scary Enough this Halloween

Needless to say, I have been in some bizarre situations during showings in my real estate career.  You do this long enough, and you come across all kinds of, shall we say, “interesting” things.

I have to admit though, the “dead clown in the garden” problem just hasn’t happened.  I guess I should consider myself truly fortunate.

So in the spirit of Halloween (nice play on words, huh?), here’s one of my favorite real estate videos.

Honestly, if I were these buyers, I would be more terrified about how the agent continually changes the subject and ignores his concerns than I would be about the “foreboding sense of evil”.

But hey, if you are looking for a house nowadays, congratulations… you definitely don’t scare easily.  And we should talk, because I can help make sure your purchase doesn’t become a nightmare.

Manic Monday’s… and the Desire to Find the Friday Spirit

Monday’s are just one of those days that can’t ever seem to be over soon enough. In addition to the daunting task of simply starting the week out right, I am usually following up with weekend showings on my listings as well buyers that I have shown property to. And if there are fires to be put out, assuredly they will start on Monday. Because of that, I have invoked executive decision powers (that means I checked with my wife and she said OK) to add some levity to my Monday.

While I understand that there is something to be said about “Fun Friday’s”, I don’t think it will ruin anyone’s week to bookend the work week with something a little less stressful.

So in this case, I am starting my Monday Movie Moment (if only because it sounded catchier than my “Monday YouTube Video Post”).  This may or may not be a weekly occurrence. Hey, it may happen with the frequency of last month’s eclipse. Regardless, at least for today, I am going to find something to chuckle over, because if history serves as any guide, tomorrow will likely be my second Monday of the week.

I will dedicate this one to those poor folks in Ohio and Texas, who will trudge to the polls tomorrow with the belief that they will affect the outcome of their primaries and ultimately the national election. Kidding! Remember, find the fun…
