Weird Things We've Seen in Houses
September 18th, 2008 12:17 PM

Here's a sampling of weird things we've seen in houses we've shown:

-Lyrics to "Eye of the Tiger" printed out on white paper, framed, and hung on a living room wall

-A picture on a nightstand of Jesus playing baseball

-The listing agent in the process of painting the walls of the home fluorescent orange to "spruce it up" a bit

-The listing agent unexpectedly in the house wearing a Hawaiian shirt, relaxing on the couch watching tv

-A framed diploma from chemical dependency rehab hanging on the wall

-Satanic messages written in black marker on a basement bedroom wall along with various newspaper articles clipped and pasted next to them

-A basement meticulously & professionally constructed to mimic a small, European town w/storefront windows w/flower boxes, real doors to each "shop", green turf & brick paved walkways, and a scenic view of the Swiss Alps painted on one wall.

-A home built and designed to specifically mimic a castle from the Renaissance days including (but not limited to) a tower & stained glass windows.

-A home that was remodeled to look like an Egyptian palace with marble pillars and double doors leading to the master suite which consisted of purple carpet covering the floors, walls and ceiling.

-Another buyers agent sitting in the kitchen of someone else's home eating Taco Bell w/her clients.

My buyers did not buy any of these homes.
