I'm back!!
I have decided to give this blogging thing one more try. Last time I tried to write about family and it seemed that we weren't interesting enough to write about. This go round, I am going to try to write a little about real estate and personal happenings. If I have a purpose, it might make it a little more interesting. For those of you who are only interested in my personal life, you might be bored. So, that being said, let's get started! So, my interesting story of the week is about an Open House I did several weeks ago. Let this serve as a warning to any other Realtors who read this. I show up to the house at 2 and am excited and ready to meet some new clients. Several people come by and give me their name and act like they will call me back, they don't... I can always tell when they are just out enjoying their Sunday afternoon. That doesn't bother me but don't try to act like you might be interested. Ok, I got sidetracked. So.. 3:30 rolls around and this strange man comes in. Holes in his pants, no shoelaces, unwashed hair, and just an odd look on his face. Basically, he doesn't even look at the house and he talks for 30 minutes calling me inappropriate names the whole time. I try to get outside several times and I eventually get my husband on the phone. I make up a stupid excuse to walk outside and then realize he has my car blocked in the driveway and my keys are inside. Stupid! He sits in there a little while longer and eventually walks out the back door. He tried to get me to walk back there with him to lock the back door but I refuse. I'm shaking and debating just running down the street but somewhere in my mind I am thinking what if he is a real buyer. I don't want to offend him or seem rude. Stupid again! Anyway, I finally just tell him I have to go home to a sick child and he ends up leaving. So, this is not to make anyone feel sorry for me. It is more of a wake up call for Realtors to be more aware of their surroundings.
