In 2006 I wrote about my problem with my client with the Fish N’ Flush. There were people who loved the aquarium commode and others who were less than enchanted. Reactions were strong, but fortunately my dilemma was fictional.
Today’s offering is another real product that I would honestly recommend you remove from your […]

This one isn’t in Oakland County.  It’s not even in Michigan.  Still, we think it falls under the category of interesting real estate stories, so we are writing about it today.
Albert, Texas is for sale and it could be yours for $2.5 million. The Albert Texas web site says the population is 4, but I […]

The leaves in Beverly Hills and Birmingham are still on the trees, so imagine my surprise when I found a Christmas Tree stand erected at the corner of Pierce and 14 Mile on October 23rd! After shopping at Costco last weekend, I knew that the retailers were ready to start the season. But […]

At least someone has a sense of humor about it. A young ‘un in Phoenix sent his homemade Tom Petty-esque video about the real estate market to the Arizona Republic and it was posted on their web site. Give it a watch. Misery loves company.

Our daughter, Katya, was born into a family where both of her parents work together as Realtors. As such, she has no idea what it is like to have parents with “normal jobs”, where they stop working when they get home for the day, don’t answer business calls after 6, have weekends that consist […]

Realtor Athol Kay runs an amusing series of bad MLS photos from across the country on his blog.  By all rights, I should send him this photo and let him share it with his wide audience of readers who tune in just for the latest in bad MLS photography.  I do hope I am not […]

In December we told the tall tale about our newest listing with the Fish n’ Flush, a fanciful device for the bath of your dreams or nightmares, depending on your opinion. Fortunately, like most good fish stories, this was about the one that got away…

… Linda Chabucos Gallow, a Realtor in Gainesville, Wisconsin. Gallow’s clients discovered the body of the homeowner in bed, where it had apparently laid, peacefully I presume, for two weeks.
