Dear People Who Looked At My House Today:
The showing was from 5:45 to 6:15. I come by around 6:25 and you're still there. There's a strange car in my driveway and a young boy looking out the door. No big deal. Maybe you ran late or maybe you're really into the place and want a good look around.
I go chill for a while and come back and you're gone. That's when I find blobs of red waxy stuff -- like from wax candy -- smooshed on the kitchen floor. On a window sill. On the carpet in my office. On the hallway carpet upstairs. All over my bed. Oh and my nightstands have been open and stuff pulled out.
I assume this is the kid (or another, younger child I didn't see). Look, I know, maybe you had to bring the kids. But people, I spent a thousand bucks cleaning this place from top to bottom. I've spent many hours getting my house ready and then living like a hermit so total strangers can troop through it. Maybe keep an eye on your kids, huh?
If you buy the house, then I don't care, but if you don't...maybe don't bring the kids?
Love...when there's money

Yeah, so I did call my relator about this. I'm kinda pissed.
Oh, very not okay!
ReplyDeleteOh, wow. That is so very not OK!
ReplyDeleteTotally not okay.
ReplyDeleteDude, you have earned your pissed. That's beyond aggravating.
ReplyDeleteThe realtor should pay for another cleaning! They're the person in whose hands you leave your home, and it should absolutely be their responsibility to make sure others treat it with respect!
ReplyDeleteLeah Bloom So far, it's nothing I can't pick up and toss out. Nothing is stained or anything, but still...
ReplyDeleteWTFF.
ReplyDeleteSo not cool. The realtor should have been on top of it. (And next time leave something good for them to find in your nightstand - The conversation-inducing kind of thing...that'll learn 'em for bringing their kids house-hunting with them.)
ReplyDeleteBlue Gargantua, that's good, but I'd make sure they know that if actual staining had been done, they'd be on the hook for it.
ReplyDeleteeeewwwww!
ReplyDeleteAgree with Leah Bloom - this one is on the realtor. They're responsible for the house when you're not there.
ReplyDeleteGlad you called the realtor. Make her earn her commission, sheesh.
