Today, as a part of my job, I took a couple around to look at houses that are on sale. After driving them around and looking at tons of houses, the wife said, "Okay. I think we have enough decorating ideas." FML

As a realtor, I lock every door in the houses I show my clients and don't open them until they agree to purchase the house. It is a very good technique.

kill thrm and wrap their bodies in the drapes. that's a nice little decorating touch that they should enjoy.

OP, it's your job and you get paid for it so quit complaining. I have to take care of a 6 year old every day for free :/

20, the OP sounds like a realtor and will ONLY get paid when she sells a home. FYL OP because those people could have just watched a few episodes of HDTV for that.(:

realtors get paid whether they sell houses or not, they would just get an extra commission if they sell a house

Use Google to find decorating tips.

Haha. Sounds like something my parents would do… look at houses for sale to get decorating ideas. Maybe they're the couple in this FML. Sorry OP.

At least the OP found out the couple's ulterior motives instead of following up with them later, cultivating the contact some more, and wasting even more time and energy. But, such are the risks and challenges involved in being a realtor. Perhaps now you know what to look out for. Still, I'd be pretty pissed about the waste of gas.

hey 50, You're in the wrong place. You should be part of Al Gore's team.

Not sure what you mean. I don't concern myself with all that scaremongering. Pretty sure humans are doomed anyway, so I'll just live my life and try to enjoy it to the fullest. What I meant was the waste of my hard-earned money on the gas to drive those people around all day. That's what would piss me off, if anything.

I would've (personal opinion) killed them, hung them from the balcony, took glamour shots, framed them and sent them to their kids to hang up on their wall

I would've just stopped the car and punch them in the face. Make them sign the contract.

My dad's a real-estate agent, so I'm pretty sure that driving them around is only PART of the job. They have to sell the house too, so that couple wasted her entire day.

24 - true but there will eventually be more customers and someone will definitely buy the house

Your profile is funny! Not everyone is willing to admit that they can sometimes be a "chicken in the hole".

Sounds like a shitty technique in my opinion. They have to see the house in order to decide if they want to buy it. Now, verifying that your clients are actually buying before you show a house is different, but refusing to show it unless they're already agreeing to buy it is ridiculous.
