This week I bought two 30 packs of premium at about $75 a pack. Not premium smokes, but premium gas to fill up my Yukon on the same CHEAP ASS drama queen weak minded California-grown home buyer.

This chick sells her 3/4 million dollar home in Palm Springs...and comes to the desert not to buy the same size house for a 1/3 of the price....but she wants to spend $130,000 on a 2-3 bedroom house in places like Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, or get this....Sedona.

NOPE!!!

I'm thinking some sh*tty part of Phoenix or Surprise (yes there's a dump city called Surprise out here). I tried telling this person for that kind of money, this is what she gets. We looked at 31 homes in 3 days. The ones she liked....her "friend" who moved over here 2 months ago is telling her...oh no this is a bad part of town. I know this isn't the typical word to describe a woman, but she is an a$$hole!


Why am I b!tchin about it....because I'm going through CP withdrawls. Tonight she calls me and says, I think I'm going to go back to California for a couple of weeks to visit my mom and we can go through this again when I come back.

A$$HOLE!!!
 
Ah the wonderful world of real estate! I thought about getting my license when I retired then I thought to myself why would I want to spend my time dealing with people who are oblivious to what they have to do to prepare to buy/sell real estate. Dealt enough with jerks like that when I was working, don't need to jump back into that again.

My area is going through a seller's market right now, average time for a house to be on the market is two weeks top. If you don't have a commitmant letter from a bank/mortgage company before you go looking you're screwed. It's just amazing how stupid most people are when it comes to real estate.

I don't think the finance side is any better. My mate is in the mortgage business and the stories she tells me about people and their expectations. :sign: It's really quite amazing how naive many people are when they enter the real estate/ mortgage process.
 
BD...sorry to hear about the frustrations with your client. smoke a nice stogie, and sip some fine adult beverages, you'll feel better...and just mutter the words you wish you could say to this stupid **** ditz of a person, take care. BTW...put my condo on the market last night...in the market for a new home here in RI. let the fun begin!
 
Are you kidding me! a little extra work for all those millions you are making from other people, and your complaining?! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Hang in there amigo, it's almost the weekend!

:cool:
 
BD, you're in sales so I'm sure you already know it's all about creating a win-win situation. It's gotta be a win for both of you. If it's not a win for you, ya gotta cut her loose.
 
A $750,000 house in Palm Springs is the equivalent of a box on the side of the road. The closest city I could find comparison ratios for is Encinitas and it's no where near as exclusive as Palm Springs.

A home with a market value of: $750,000 in Encinitas
Can be expected to cost about: $284,000 in Phoenix



You should buy a Prius to take your customers around in. :)

Well I've seen pictures of her old house. And although it definitely doesn't jive with the typical "palm springs-ish" pad, she still has after her old taxes, realtor commissions, morgage, etc., she's got a little under 600K in the bank.

$284,000...........YEAH FREAKIN RIGHT! She started getting nervous if I took her over $150K

She says, I want to have enough money to do upgrades and have some nice furniture. Maybe Rob-K can come in and do a nice kitchen for her ;) :D

Anyway, I thought I was done with her for 2 weeks but she wants me to meet her at one of the homes we already saw before she flies out.

And I thought of words like the "B" word, even the "C" word...but nope, she's still an A$$hole :angry2: :blush:
