~ Realtor Reality ~

  • Mood:
  • Yesterday cans: 15
Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
~ 2 Peter 1:2
 
In my November 19th entry  I mention how much I enjoy to walk  & I wrote about numerous houses  becoming abandoned round these parts . . . there's this one house the family moved out for when they signed on they got a "great deal", at least for a limited time  but then the note raised to where they just were not able to keep up with it ( this I heard from a few of neighbors, I used to wave  to them as passing by but I never spoke with them ) . . . seeing I pass the house  each day I get to see it quite a few times, houses draw me in  . . . I walked the lot a couple times, pressed my face to a few of the windows to see in & always go away sighing  for I know it is just not in our cards  . . . but curiosity  got the best of me . . . on the house was a white paper note  proclaiming the house was winterized & if there was any emergency to call such-n-such number . . . I had begun to notice certain areas of the house being disturbed so I got in contact  with the number to give them a heads up to this . . . later I contacted them again in reference to what was taking place, I got to hear the word ratification . . . some time passed, damage still taking place, no realtor sign up yet so I attempted to contact  the company one more time . . . this time I was told it was not on the market yet, they would TRY to keep me in mind BUT with SO MANY interested it was difficult, they SUGGESTED I keep an eye on the house & call them when I see a sign go up . . .  ????  . . . on that note it took quite a bit for me to not tell them my suggestion! Talk about blown off before you even get a toe in the door! I would think that in the Realtor Business you would be a bit more . . . hhmmm  . . . nicer . . . Sales are important in that line of work, so to me each person interested is a great potential & should be treated in such a manner . . . Realtors up our way are not the best & makes it clear to me why sales are not that great  . . . I wrote them back informing them that their response was not one I favored & when I was interested in a house I would not be contacting them again . . . their response? Thank You, keep us in mind . . . . ????????  . . . .
 
Another house  has been empty forever & a day, this one had a sign on the yard . . . so I thought well, lets give it a try, can't hurt to ask  . . . it is a 4 bedroom 2 bath that is RENTING for $1850! um . . . no thank you  . . . the individual bought the house back in 2000 for $133,400
 
There is another house  that I have passed all these years . . . a very small rambler . . . when we first moved to this area I assumed the house was abandoned due to the outside condition, but quickly found out that no it was instead the individual was a very private sort who was an extreme & I mean EXTREME pack rat . . . there is a car port that was packed to the gill with boxes, crates, bags, chairs, you name it is there with this very very narrow pathway to the door . . . I always thought how the hey hiddy hey did this person get in & out  . . . & my word if there was ever a fire   !!!!! The front porch has collapsed, neighbors tell me that the back one collapsed years ago . . . it is in pretty sad condition  . . . there is a dumpster out front now, I saw the neighbor before Thanksgiving, gave them greetings  & wishes for a fine Holiday  & inquired about the dumpster . . .she said she was moving, her house was recently broke into  . . .  yesterday I stopped & asked if she needed any help ( she is an elderly widow ) she declined, we talked briefly & she gave me this box of Avon items! Glory Be To God & Praise Sweet Jesus  ! How sweet was that! I went through them & found they were mostly from 1989! Yes she did like to keep things indeed!!!
 
Prior to her house  as passing by another house  I was talking to one of the kids  I walk  home when I heard a rustling in the leaves  coming from behind me, thinking mad squirrel ( we have a shortage of acorns around here & the squirrels are getting a tad aggressive ) I pushed the kid  to the side as turning to look over my shoulder at what was coming at us  . . . what did I see? the cutes, fuzziest, plumpest little puppies   pouncing through the leaves  to get to us!!!! We were near the street & I worried they would get squished so we stopped & got a lot of puppy love given to us . . . my girls   & another kid  were walking  ahead of us so they did not spot them right away, but from the girly squeals  I knew the minute they spotted me with the puppies!!! Watching my girls & the other kids rolling about with these puppies   was a major "awwwww" moment . . . one of the kids upon my request knocked on the door to tell the owner these pups were out, I was hesitant about this for this house is one of the major drug ones in our area but as well, I really did not want to see these puppies injured! Turns out they had five but these were the last two . . .  as well apparently the resident of the house found me to be hot  & inquired if I was married . . . his interest in me confirms he is indeed on drugs!!!!!
 
Settling into bed last evening  my son came back to the house earlier then normal . . . with a friend  of his . . . I have known this boy  for quite a few years, excellent individual, caring & hardworking . . . he works at a Hospital, is a major computer whiz & an outrageously talented tattoo artist  . .  he just recently got kicked out of his house  & is now having to live in his car  . . . I feel so badly for him  . . . he has a horrid cold, his auto hydroplaned the other day & got damaged & now he has no where to live  . . . this is the second friend of my sons that I have heard is living in his car . . .
 
I have been Praying, & I have Faith, I do Believe things are going to get so much better very soon! Glory Be To God & Praise Sweet Jesus!
 
~ May you ALWAYS be Blessed & may you ALWAYS Bless others ~
