Pet Peeves

[nuthatched]

When you call about some land you are interested in and the realtor acts like you are bothering them. Then they say they will email you info on the land but they take their sweet old time. Do you not want to sell the property?

"How dare you expect me to actually earn my paycheck. Don't you know I have more important things to do then to pander to peons like you?"

Especially when it's something like an EE that looks like anything and everything and has who knows what in its backgrownd

I wonder if anyone's working on tests for chickens like the ones you use on dogs to see what breeds they are.

I would love that. I think theres too many slight variations though. Or at least thats what someone said like 2 years ago when that was asked

I have some baited and set mousetraps down stairs to take to the coop and I think I just heard one go off.

Edit: Nope, all set and accounted for. I was not looking forward to that mess.

Pet peeve:
'has anyone ever crossed a buff orp with red rooster I got from my neighbor's aunt Susan? What will the babies look like?"

No, you dingus, we don't have your neighbors aunt Susans' red rooster.

Or
"Has anyone crossed a ee with a white silkie? I can't find any pictures on Google, so I must be the first, lol."

Yep, you're the first, in hundreds of years of domestic chicken keeping, you're the only one. Go, Be free with your ugly chickens.

Threads of this nature are the worst for me.

Preach!

I don't have a realtor, we are looking on our own

yeah, it’s super easy to look on your own now with all of the listing sites online.

but you should at least consider getting a realtor to make all the calls, set up the showings, and do your negotiating for the properties that you like

the seller’s agent will take your calls more seriously, and the best part about buying is that your realtor gets paid by the seller. costs you nothing.

@tripletfeb when you contact an online listing, you get automatically routed to a random agent via the listing website. it’s basically a cold call.

you’re always better served picking your own. at least then you have a little bit of a relationship and they know what you’re looking for.

I've been trying to convince my husband to get a realtor. Maybe this will light a fire under his butt

I don't contact them through the listing site. I write down who the realtor works through and contact them through their own company website
