Real Estate, Listing

Dec. 28, 2010

“Needs structural work,” says the listing for this two-bed, two-bath, $580,000 condo in San Francisco. Let me save you the inspector’s fee and tell you right now what the work involved is. From careful analysis of the photo, and using all my experience, I can see that the issue is… some of the outlets aren’t grounded properly. Hope that helps. Have a nice day!

Name Your Drink

Dec. 19, 2010

funny real estate - Who Likes Whiskey?

If you had twins, you would name them:

a) Jack and Daniel

b) Jacob (#1 name for a twin boy!) and Esau (doesn’t make the list, curiously)

c) Hunter and Gatherer (for a mixed-sex set)

d) Dot and Dash (another mixed set)

e) other (please explain in the space below)

And now I’m totally distracted by the “Popular names for twins born in 2009″ list. There were 25 sets of Heaven and Nevaeh? Fifteen of Paris and London? I tell you this: when I’m queen, nobody will be allowed to name their children until they promise they’ve fully absorbed the lessons of the classic website (is that an oxymoron?) Baby’s Named a Bad, Bad Thing. Parents of Cullens and Addisyns: I’m looking at you.

Sorry Ladies and/or Gentlemen, but my Guitar is my One True Love

funny real estate - You Could at Least Make the Bed in Your Love Nest
funny real estate - You Could at Least Make the Bed in Your Love Nest

Look, sometimes people are still home when the real estate agent comes by to take photos, okay? And sometimes people are in the middle of… stuff. In the bedroom. And in the cabana. And probably other places, too.

Just… stuff.

Loveliest comment, by Anodean: Well, if I had gold-painted bricks, intrusive posters, and skull-shedding walls, I’d not only hang heavy drapes over it all, I’d sew them closed and nail them down so none of that messed up crap got around them.

Grimness for all Price Ranges

Nov. 11, 2010

funny real estate - $495 1BD Murder Den

Here is a test. You have to raise your children in one of these locations: either the $495 1BD Murder Den apartment above, or the 10 bedroom, 19 bathroom ranch below. Which do you chose, and why? And do you change your choice upon finding out that the ranch was owned by Michael Jackson?

I’ve Seen Listings from Both Sides Now

Nov. 2, 2010

home!

True, you might think this photo from a listing for a San Francisco apartment (1 bedroom, $639,000) is a bit odd. But me? I say finally, a place to call home, for reasons that should be obvious when you seen this recent snapshot of me removing a geoduck from its shell playing the mandolin:

this isn't my good side

Found by: me. And I just noticed that they seem to be calling the landings “levels.” Why stop there? Why not declare every stair tread to be its own floor?

 

Loveliest comment, by uninformedcomment: I like the fact that it has a “bonus level”, which makes it sound like a computer game. I wonder if it has Easter eggs and a God mode.
