For Sale, but Stay Away
Perhaps this is a rhetorical question but we’ll attempt to brainstorm reasons why. Why would someone put their home on the market and then not allow showings?
10. Court ordered sale, so owner really doesn’t want to leave. Just on the market to obey judge’s ruling.
9. The house is nasty inside.
8. Need time to remove body from freezer before anyone accidentally finds it.
7. There are dangerous animals who bite.
6. Lonely. Just hired Realtor for someone to talk to.
5. Foreclosure and current occupants aren’t yet out.
4. Like your new paint colors and want to see how they look online.
3. Playing a cruel joke on your neighbors who hate you… pretending to sell but not really.
2. Waiting for smell to subside.
1. Fear that potential buyer will contaminate your house with the swine flu.
I hope my colleague will be able to get into the house eventually to show her buyer!
